Flowers hide shirt holes!

This is a copy of yesterdays blip. I'm re-posting it so I can link up to some parties without being the jerk who links her blog party to a blog party! 


With a toddler who needs to nap and a baby who recognizes me as the "milk maker," I can't stay on the beach all day...believe me when I say, this isn't that disappointing- my skin and the sun don't alay get along! So, I've been spending a lot of time at the ol' beach house.

I kinda knew I would be at the house a lot, so I brought my little craft bin full of a few things I'd put off for too long. One of those things was a little black top.

I've had this shirt since 2005, when I bought it while pregnant with Abby. I loved this shirt! This skirt was amazing. It was soft, stretchy and so flattering at a very unflattering time. Even better than that, it came in handy after I gave birth, when my body looked something like a pasty deflated beach ball.

Well once again I find myself looking like an albino deflated orb, but my handy dandy stretched-out-skin-hiding-shirt was the worse for wear. Sniff sniff... tears....Actually it wasn't so bad. To be honest, it was very fixable! Yay!

Don't ask me how I got these little holes in this shirt, but I think I may have acidic breast milk. It's the only way I can explain it!

It was just a matter of covering these unsightly holes with something. Thank GOD for DIYers and their wonderful ideas! Using some DIY jersey fabric flowers and little pearl beads, I was able to cover the tiny holes with lovely flowers.

My black shirt was back in business. Which is great news, because I'm not shedding this belly anytime soon. I really love comfort food!

Okay back to the beach!!
