Now I am hand-painting the flowers back in to match the garden flowers in the beach cabin where we’d go on family vacation when I was a kid. ♥️♥️♥️

Halter style dress with side seam pockets is handpainted with floral and striped motifs.

Halter style sundress has back tied drawstring.

My "Swing" sundress is fun for twirling around in. Made of handpainted cotton with big hibiscus flowers front and back. Will be in the online shop soon.
