8th Grade Dance

An annual event at our school, the 8th grade dance. My girls went with a big group, dinner at a small restaurant, then pictures in a wonderful community garden. Hubby, myself and their older 2 sisters thought they needed wrist corsages for the big event. They were so touched we did this for them.


No, I did not make their dresses but did have to sew the elastic smaller on the yellow rose wrist corsage. Took in about 3/4"!

They were so excited and I can't wait to hear about it.

  3. The corsages are pretty and so is the colour of their dresses from what I can see. Hope they had a good time.

  4. I can still remember 8th grade dances, believe it or not! In the gym girls on one side, boys on the other. Staring across the room. I wonder if that still happens? Beautiful corsages.
