With all this rain that has come and maybe gone, I thought it would be fun to show you my latest umbrella makeover...
First of all the story of the umbrella. My sisters and mom thought I was absolutely nuts when I bought this awesome umbrella when we were in Italy last February only to rip it apart before we got home. After all, it wouldn't fit in my suitcase anyway. It cost me 5 Euro which is about $8 bucks in US dollars. I figured if my plan for it didn't work, I wasn't out too much. So here is the before shot of my umbrella.

And here is the make-over! Kind of fun huh? The best part is that if ever I am stuck in a rain storm with my kids while wearing it. I can just shove them under my skirt while we walk and they will stay nice and dry. Genius!

| And no, my scarf is not made out of umbrella (I'm not THAT weird). Though, I did get the scarf on my trip as well in the hopes that my "skirt project" would turn out so I could wear them together of course :) |

I am laughing so hard right now. You are the ONLY person I know who would make clothing out of an umbrella. Ha ha ha! :)
So cute! It does kinda make sense, but who would think to make a skirt out of an umbrella?!
Glad to see the finished product. I have been waiting. . .
It's super cute with the scarf!!
Leave it to Heather to find an umbrella and make it into a skirt. I love you.
Pretty dang awesome, that's what you are Heather. I miss you guys!
love it!!! and i have to admit i did think you'd made a scarf out of the umbrella b/c as i scrolled down, that's all i saw at first. :-)
Heather,
You are amazing. That outfit is SO CUTE!!!! And YOU are so cute wearing it!
(And, yes, I did think that you'd made the matching tie from the umbrella, as well...)
I thought I was pretty clever once when I turned an old army green Nehru jacket from the 60's into a cute skirt for Shaunda--but your umbrella project definitely tops that!
