Iron-Ons

Trying to save some cash I talked Leila into buying the $10 pair of jeans that were plain insteand of the $16.99 pair of jeans with a fancy belt and butterflys and glittery things. I did this by saying we can go to the craft store and get some iron-on embelishments thinking we would spend a dollar or two, and I might be able to start building up a reserve of this kind of thing for future use.

She found what she wanted- kittys and fish-- for $6.99. And now Nathan needed the doggies and bones too for a pair of his jeans at home for $6.99- so I not only saved $0 on Leila, I spent extra in the name of being fair and getting some for Nathan, not to mention time and gas. Next time, we are buying the $16.99 pair. And a note to the grandma's- Leila is a size six, not a seven- she is so thin and long it may be years before she actually fills in a seven waistband. By the time she outgrows the length, hopefully it will be summer and capris will be back in season.

They do both love thier unique jeans however and had fun placing the little emblishments exactly where they wanted them, and used every single item. Gotta love it:
