The photo shoot was a success except for the fact it was FREEZING cold (managed to convince Simon that tea was a good prop as opposed to the wine glass we usually use and this time it was a real drink in there so at least my hands were warm); and I couldn't fit into some of the clothes so now have to persuade someone to model them for me or find a dress form that it will fit.
Following the photo shoot we had a yummy roast dinner round Susannah's house to celebrate our Dad's birthday. Between keeping an eye on children, chatting and cooking dinner we managed to grab 5 minutes to take a look at the shop. I have requisitioned some of the vintage buttons from the infamous button box for a project for Lesley's Girls Upcycled. Susannah has completed the rescuing a 1960s evening dress into a glamorous party top and this will be one of our first items into Upcycled; even if I say so myself she has worked wonders turning this into a beautiful creation... her next project is a 1950s Carnegie of London pale blue dress which needs some love to make it wearable again- can't wait to see what she achieves with this one.
Another post with more later in the week!
