Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Seriously LOL!!!

The prom dress is a gauzy red with little white flowers that puff up (dotted swiss?) puffed sleeves, empire waist with a thin navy blue ribbon. I LOVED that dress. But I guess that is obvious since I still have it. My girls didn't even want to wear it for a Halloween costume. I'll be buying my second mother of the groom dress soon. Yes, the first mother of the groom dress is in the closet too. It hasn't been let into the club. It's not hideous enough. My wedding dress left the club 3 years ago. My sister cut off the lace to make garters, ring bearer pillows and wedding purses for my girls Now it's in her house as part of her clutter along with her spool jar of course.
Originally Posted By Lady Starlight I really liked the spool jar idea. I have a jar like that with rocks in it. ( I have a thing about collecting "nature's landscaping" type things, pine cones, rocks, twigs etc...) It's not pretty. lol
