Painted garden dress!

Just for fun!
I had a faux silk dress and decided I wanted to walk in the garden. So I painted this 15 years ago for a garden party! I still have the dress, lord knows why!!!!
Flowers are painted on the hem all the way around the dress. I used craft acrylic paints!

  1. Wow - it's lovely! Those flowers almost look like they were appliqued or embroidered on. I would have kept it too. Ya just never know when you might need a garden gown! nancy
