Handmade Easter Baby Girl Dress from Etsy.com
Bold fabrics and a big, beautiful bow mark this fun and fanciful handmade girl’s Easter Ice Cream Sundae Dress from HolyCrapClothing’s Etsy shop. The sleeveless dress features a pink print fabric with an abstract flower design (or are they Easter eggs?) and a removable blue bow with long tails that drape down the front of the dress.
An unattached skirt in the same fabric as the bow sits beneath the dress and peaks out from the bottom; it can be worn as a separate skirt as well. The dressmaker will also send an extra set of large buttons to swap out with the ones that come already sewn onto the dress. The bodice of the dress is also fully lined. Sizes available: newborn to girls’ 6. Price: $42. Shipping is $4.
Make the Most of Infant and Baby Dresses
Just like all infant clothing, a baby dress will fit for about three months, so make the most of the few times a precious dress is worn by taking plenty of photos and videos. After church and Easter dinner, remove the dress and promptly clean it before packing it away for the next occasion or the next child.
If the dress is in pristine shape and from a brand label, recoup some of the investment by reselling it on eBay or at a consignment shop. Or, donate it to a friend or relative whose baby girl will look just as darling in the special dress as the original wearer.
