Costume Ideas in the Works!

Here's Boo Boo modeling a new costume designed by Dianna.  Pouty and Piper are also wearing similar costumes

The costumes are all of silk except for the lace trim.  The silk was dyed using Colorhue Dyes. The graphics on the shirts were applied with iron on transfers   which will be available soon with an assortment of other designs.  Here's a way for your doll to express themselves, make a statement, send a message and have a voice in the world.  

More information on the patterns, designs and techniques will be available soon.
