opinions on G's bday party dress from etsy

What do you think of this dress from etsy? It's 30 bucks. Do you think it goes well with the picture of the party supplies below? This is Gianna's bday theme. Trying to decide if I want to spend 3o bucks on this dress......WWYD? I am having our pamcakes make me a hair bow like Minnies.

  • very cute, and definitely goes well with the theme, but I probably wouldn't spend $30 on it for a 1 time thing. 
  • ADORABLE! I think that's the perfect dress for Gianna!

    And, I think that dress can be worn lots during the spring/summer! Great :)

  • I love it!  I especially love the fact that it's a Minnie dress without being a cheap, commercialized version.  It's adorable and I would totally spend the money for something so beautifully hand made.

    I LOVE it!  That is adorable. Considering I spent $20 on a t-shirt for each of my kids' birthday parties, I don't think it's crazy to spend $30 on the dress.  She can definitely wear it again in the spring/summer/fall!
  • Stinking LOVE IT!  And you could definitely use it again.  She could wear that over the summer for sure!  I can't wait to see the bow and the dress together!

    double ditto!  Very cute! 

  • As someone who sews for my own daughters and for profit (for friends, not on etsy), $30 is a steal for that dress. I would sell that dress for about $40.  I have many friends who also sell custom dresses on etsy and their prices are higher than mine.  I know it seems expensive but the fabric costs and the time involved in sewing a dress like that add up quickly.

     

    And it matches your theme perfectly.

  • I LOVE it!!!  I am jealous... we had same theme last year and I would have grabbed that dress if I saw it too.  Love love love it!  :-)
  • I meant to add earlier, Shannon happened to glance at my computer when I had your post up. She immediately quipped, "I want that pink dress for MY birthday party!" Shannon's been talking about her birthday for more than a month already... and we still have another month to go! (Guess who else will likely be buying an Etsy dress this year!)

  • What size is G in now, Pam? Shannon's just getting into 4T. We're probably beyond giving hand-me-downs now, huh?

    She is in 2T now & I expect she'll be in that until at least the fall. Do you have any 2T's left?

    I'll have to check about 2Ts. I am certain that I do have some!! I think that Miss Maddie is only going to need 12-18mos this summer. I'll check and email you, lady!

    Oh, and you totally inspired our birthday theme this year. Minnie & Mickey Mouse. Shannon so wanted one of those dresses, and I caved! Here's the one I just ordered, with Shannon's two favorite colors: pink and yellow (just like her room)

  • I think I'm having Shannon & Kyle's party on the weekend in between their birthdays. That happens to be Mother's Day weekend, so the plan is to have the joint-party on the Saturday (the 7th).

    I'm sure we can come up with an excuse to get our girls dolled up for a picture op! ;)

  • Her party was supposed to be that Saturday the 7th, but 2 of my very good friends couldn't come along with my MIL so i decided to make it the following weekend. But it's usually the Sat. of Mother's Day weekend.
