When I had made the ballerina play set for our friends’ kid, I made an additional one, thinking I’d give it to our niece. I just found out she’s turning nine and doesn’t play dress up anymore. Instead, she’s into make up and big girl stuff now. Imagine how much of an ass I would’ve looked walking in with a tutu. Anyway, I decided to make her a make up bag full of make up. I just ended up going to Target and picking up a bunch of different items: lip gloss, nail polish, blush, eye shadow and a brush set.

I finished off the bag with a vintage button a hot pink yo-yo that’s made with the same fabric as the lining.

I just wrapped it up in some blue tissue paper and pink ribbon to match the bag. She was super excited about her own make up bag.
