Erin's Prom

Pin It
 A beautiful dress for a beautiful girl! My niece Erin graduated this week from high school and I got to make her prom dress! Now I don't take much pride in copying another designer ...but thats basically what I did here. Free People being the original designers..... and do I dare say those blogger words....
"tweaked it to make it my own" aaghhhh!




A backless chiffon dress with two slits in the front and a lot of beading!
The beads are black twisted bugles.



One bead at a time! This pile was one of many!

Beads from ~ link ~  Strung out on beads

Her mom helped in the 11th hour with the last few thousand. I know you think I'm kidding but I'm not!

           



Sooo pretty!



 If you look really close I beaded ' Erin 2014' on the bottom back! You know.... late at night, eyes are starting to cross and the novelty of beading has worn off! 


When I showed her she asked if I could bead  #YOLO...... you have to know that girl! Bless her heart!


Here she is with her friends!


 I also made her friend Ramona's dress.... kind've last minute, 2 days before prom but if I dare say it turned out well!.....and on the right is the always stunning Alex who hosted pre-prom! 




A gorgeous day in Whistler!



Erin with her friend Berit... I don't know what it is about Whistler but they do produce stunning girls!



Congratulations Erin!
 So beautiful....inside and out!
love you!  Aunty J.
