Ladies in the City
Heading out with a group of girlfriends to a Canada Day party in the city? Turn heads with cute Canada themed skirts. If you’re a group of 6 consider spelling out CANADA.
If there are just two of you, why not spell EH, or think up words that are uniquely Canadian that fit the size of your group. Pair it with a red top and you’ll be good
to go. You can also choose to dress it up with an optional fascinator a la Kate Middleton and patriotic red and white nails.
Supplies:
- White skirt (preferably A-line)
- Red acrylic paint
- Paint brush
- Letter stencils
Directions:
Lay the stencil near the bottom of the skirt. Using the paintbrush, follow the stencil and apply a coat of paint evenly. Let dry for an hour before painting on another coat.
If you want to add a touch of sparkle to your outfit, sprinkle on some glitter while the paint is still wet.
If you want to go the extra mile, consider making your own fascinator. All you really need is a headband, a hot-glue gun, scissors and some art supplies of your own choosing;
think feathers, lace, fake flowers etc. The possibilities are endless!
