My hapi-coat inspired summer housecoat & slipper-socks |
A first attempt at copying a store-bought nightgown. |
BTW, We've joined the community garden nearby and our sweat equity has really paid off...the greens & herbs have been abundant, fresh & delicious the last 5-6 weeks. Rainbow chard, beet greens, spinach, every possible variation on lettuce, cilantro, etc. Yum!
Anyway, we made an amazing salad, and I got dressed and it just so happened that all 3 items I put on were me-made! I'd call that a me-made miracle. It all definitely came together because it got quite cold yesterday, so I needed the fuzzy slipper-socks, in addition to the nightgown (never blogged) and the hapi-coat (not really a yukata because of the length).
Here are a few photos (sorry they're not the greatest quality), with my own tiny tribute to Me-Made May.
That is awesome! I have been considering a nightie and robe as my next project. I have been watching Mad Men and Betty Draper always wears the cutest nightgowns and robes. You have inspired me to search my stash and create something for myself.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, I always envisioned myself in silk & lace ala 40s film stars...but instead it's cotton & cotton jersey! Oh well, at least I got a MMM day in.
