When Shannon started making The Shining carpet design hair ties (bottom most pictured above) I knew I needed a dress in that print, and it really lends itself to a 1960s dress design! I just so happen to have a collection of vintage sewing patterns. I always thought I would learn to sew.

But even though my mom tried to teach me and I took sewing classes, I have zero percent sewing skills. I asked Shannon — if I gave her the pattern — if she could make me a dress out of The Shining print? She said, “Yes!”. (I made the buttons. At least I’m good for something. (Source: catslikeus.com)

So now I have this amazing reproduction 1960s dress and matching hair tie made of The Shining print rug. What’s the best way to show it off? A photo shoot of course! I asked Destiny, my friend and neighbor from Sweet Heart Pin Up, if she could help me. If you ever want a full pinup experience she is the person to see! She made me feel like a queen on a throne while she applied my makeup. It was so relaxing. I just told her I wanted it to be heavy 1960s makeup and boy did she deliver! Eyelashes here, eyelashes there, eyelashes everywhere!
