    Many great ideas. Great job on the no new clothes for three years. Just a tip buying from to make is clothes different\new can get costly fast. For a cheaper alternative think about combining lace and design elements from two or three different outfits to create a new look. Another cost cutting idea is to use other things like tableclothes. curtains,and scarves. I made a nightgown out of a pretty shirt that had beautiful bead work. I just loved the bead work on the original shirt, made a pretty girly gown for a five year princess lol!
