Princess Dress Wall Hanging
Princess Dress Wall Hanging
From the Designer: "This home decor piece was created using the Leisure Arts Princess Dress Diamond Art. After creating the diamond art dress, I cut out the finished piece and adhered it to felt with some pretty lace to create a beautiful wall hanging, perfect for any girls bedroom. I painted a wooden dowel in white and used Beacon Power Tac glue to adhere it to the felt piece. Then I finished the dress with some Prima flowers and a touch of lace."
