Tropical Swim Suit

This is a fun tropical looking swim suit. It has multiple tiers of ruffles and a key hole in the front. It is a halter top that ties up around the neck from center front. I love how the fuchsia, green and teal colors of the flowers and plants stand out against the white background.

I found this fuchsia lace bathing skirt to wear with it. It has the bikini bottoms with a lace overlay.

I bought the black bathing skirt to wear with my other lace swim suit but I can wear it with this top too. I don't know if I like the fuchsia or the black skirt with this top better.

Here is the lace bathing skirt that I bought for my black lace swim suit top. It also has the bikini bottoms under the lace overlay.

New Bathing Suit

I started rehab on my arm and back this week. I was referred to pool therapy. The pool is low impact on the body. The density of the water makes your movement slow and is in itself weight resistant. I can't wait to start. Getting into a nice warm pool without children running around sounds so wonderful.

Well if I am getting into a pool I need something to wear. The last bathing suit I bought I was a 19 year old size 6. That was so long ago. Now I am a plus size woman. How did that happen? 

As a recovering cancer survivor I need to find something to accommodate my breast expander and hide my mastectomy scars. I have breast expander in until I can have surgery to put in my implants later in the year. I can't have a top that uses my boobs to hold up the bathing suit. It hurts to much in that area. I needed something that ties and has some support.

After going through quite a few suits and being drawn to those really cute ones, only to find out that they don't come in my size. I finally found this bathing suit top that I liked. It is black lace halter top. I bought black so I can buy bottoms in different colors. This swim suit top fits me really well. It hides my tummy and it provides me with the breast support I need. Plus, I love how it makes me feel like a woman again. That is something that is hard to get back after cancer. It is the perfect top for me under $20.00

New Towel Wrap IV - Final

I thought after a whole month and a half
I would show you the final version of the first towel wrap. 

This towel wrap was finished the day before we took it out to Portland Saturday Market. PSM approved towels wraps as a new product for us out there. It was approved in the morning and it was sold by afternoon along with two other towel wraps we took out there that day. 

Never fear, I've already made another one similar to this one.

New Towel Wrap Part III

As you can see we have added an Eiffel Tower to the bottom of the towel wrap. The Eiffel Tower was embroidered in black.

After we got the Eiffel Tower embroidered onto the towel wrap we felt there was something missing. We need to add something that links the Fleur de Lis design at the top of the towel to the Eiffel Tower at the bottom. We are not sure what exactly but we will figure something out, I'm sure. ;)
