LET’S CALL
HER PIP!
... and she looks as cute as
all get-out in her dip-dyed
watermelon skirt, made by
Tia and Laura, from Little
Button Diaries blog. You
can tell in an instant when
you visit their site, at
littlebuttondiaries.com,
that these two are mums,
since they have a knack of
coming up with ideas that
kids will just love. To wit:
a slice of creative genius
in the form of a fruit skirt.
To see how it’s made,
go to littlebuttondiaries.
