The Doc is in

The Doc is in and she'll fix you up... all you Moms who watch Disney Junior know how much the kids love Doc Mc Stuffins.

As you know by now, I am totally against reinventing the wheel. So, I just put some store bought clothes to come up with her Doc Mc Stuffins outfit. I bought the doctor kit and the lab coat is actually boys button down oxford shirt (2 sizes too big). There you have it, a Doc McStuffins costume for about the same price you can get those itchy polyester ones from and no sewing.

For those of you not cool like us preschool moms, here is a picture of the "Doc".

Until next time my friends,
Nicole

Cinderella Party

We threw our four year old the ultimate Cinderella Birthday Party. Below are some of the pictures and details.
Prince Charming, Fairy God Mommy, Cinderella,Poor Cinderella 
The costumes (for the family) were all sewn by me. For the Prince Charming costume, I followed the great tutorial by Ashley at Make it & Love it (http://www.makeit-loveit.com/2010/10/prince-charming-costume-tutorial-from.html). I did not make hubby's pants, they are store bought. I had to hand sew gold ribbon down the side. The shirt was a store bought shirt and I carefully picked off the collar and pocket then added the embellishments. For the Cinderellas, I used store bought patterns and added embellishments. Poor Cinderella is a basic peasant dress pattern with a half apron. The Fairy God Mommy is just a quick skirt and a the cape is a circle skirt with an attached hood (lined with pink) and ribbon made using the circle skirt tutorial by Dana over at Made http://www.danamadeit.com/2008/07/tutorial-the-circle-skirt.html.
