Well... the dress got done. Friday night... All I had left to do was sew in the crinoline.
Unless it gets damaged, it'll be ready for fair.
Well, AFTER I pull out the sorry excuse for a crinoline...
Meri went to a friends that night with a couple other girls and they had a "shaving" party. I guess one of the girls had a huge whirlpool... So I need to round up some friends to shave with for MY next big event! Then she went to another friends and made her masquerade mask on a stick for prom and her friend showed her how to paint with her feet. And I only know this because the next morning Meri asked me to paint her toenails and her shower hadn't taken all the paint off from around her toenails...
Ummm Meri?
On Saturday, she asked me to go along with her to her many prom prep appointments that she'd set up. A boy in her class has a hair studio in his house and had appointments for several girls to get dolled up and Meri was one of the lucky ones.
Before.
During.
After.
MAN! Her hair is LONG... But it can hold a curl, UNLIKE mine. I think she got her dad's hair but my length.
I took her out to lunch, then we went to the wife of her choir director's house where she got her make up done.
Elsa's cats are a hoot! And I think one gave me a love bite.
a little more...
She even got fake lashes on! And wow, what a fab affect! Personally I can't stand anything, much less mascara on my lashes...
She finished her own mascara because that's tricky.
Then we headed home and I helped her into her dress before her date arrived.
More on the actual event tomorrow.

Beautiful dress and Meri's hair and makeup look beautiful too! can't wait to see the rest of the pictures!
Wow her friend did a fantastic job on her hair!
I love her dress and can't wait to see the remaining pictures.
I can't get over how much proms have changed since I was a teen. I put my hair in a ponytail on top of my head and rolled the hair with a couple of empty o.j. cans. I know I wore makeup but I did it myself. It was so long ago that I don't remember if possibly I used a little extra mascara or not, but that was about as fancy as it got.
Those fake eyelashes do make for a fab effect! Her hair really is so long! Wow! Looking forward to more photos!
Shaving party? Now that's friendship! I love her hair - mine hasn't ever been able to hold a curl like that either - she's very lucky in how the hair genes sorted themselves out :)
Fun, fun memories.So pretty.
