Being a real swingin' gal now, she is really into makeup. As in, Grandma's. The minute she comes in the door, she makes a beeline for my makeup bag, and gets out the powder to "get pretty." However, being almost-two means that she leaves little canals in the powder where she has dug her fingernails in (she uses the powder-puff "dry" as well). And her cute little fingerprints on the mirror make me look like I'm in a fun house.
I got this cute fat quarter recently, and decided to make her her own bag:
Here is how it turned out:
And then, at the dollar store, I got this cute brush and mirror:
My dd13, Blackeyed Susan, has some extra "clean" powder puffs left over from Nutcracker last year, so I will stick one of those in, and Laura's Makeup Bag will be complete.
Now maybe she'll leave mine alone. Though I have been in the parenting biz long enough to know that having your own bag is no guarantee, for a two-year old. Sometimes, the Real Deal is the only deal.
We'll see.

I love it! Yes, my daughter is much the same for Mama's GLOSS! (She has my old compact powder and puff, too.)
