Welcome to Dress Up in May!
the sun is shining and the flowers are flowering, finally!!! I used a page from an old gardening dictionary as my background for this month.
I ripped up an old paper napkin and rearranged the flowers before gluing them down
I have some very old paper string which can be unravelled to make numerous things, from elaborate flowers and garlands to tiny leaves

Love your May dress. It is a very festive and fun use of those flowery napkins. I bought some similar paper string a few years ago, but mine doesn't have the sheen yours has. Very nice accent.
I sure miss you. Hope you are enjoying your blog break. It's a long time till the 20th, so hope you'll post as soon as you get back.
Truly delightful - pretty & feminine. I love the flowers over the lettering and the string - is that like a raffia ?
Thanks for organising this Margaret even though you are on a break ! ( It's a kind of Magic )
