Tinkerbell Costume Made By Me!

I have been trying to find the perfect costume for my daughter. I checked Party City, Gymboree, Children's Place, & More. Suddenly a light bulb turned on! Whallaa! I can make my own costume for her.

The Tinkerbell costume was fairly easy to make and only cost me $26 at my local fabric store. I used 10 yards of tulle, elastic, and ribbon. The best thing was it took me only 1.5 hours to do. Now I am hunting for the perfect wings. I found Tinkerbell shoes at the Goodwill Outlet for less than $1.

Below is the picture. Please do let me know what you think. As you can see some of the tulle has glitter. My daughter picked out the glitter tulle.


Looking for a job in Washington

I have been looking for a job with little luck. Christmas is coming and money is tight enough. Today I have applied for over 20 different positions with hopes someone will contact me for an interview. Has this economy got so bad that I, can not find a single opening? Honestly, right now I am not picky, I just need at least an income of $1,250 a month. This would help a great deal.

I am just going to cross my fingers, pray to God, and hope I will have a job I like within the next two weeks. It really sucks when you have to sell your things just to get money for diapers.

Also I have been using Craig's List. If you know a job search site that you like in Washington let me know.
