Princess Raene

My Grandma Adams heard about some great mini summer camps being offered through the public museum. One was a three day class called the Life of a Princess. Which teaches kids about what life was like to be a princess. Each day the kids got to dress up, bake, do crafts and learn about the customs happening during a new era. This year there was Colonial, Medieval, and Victorian times to explore. She asked if Raene would enjoy going to the class and of course the answer was a resounding "Yes!"

Raene had so much fun in the class and can't wait to take it again next year. Here are some pictures of her in the adorable dresses that Grandma either made or found for her.

Raene is holding the doll she made during class in this picture. I forgot to get a picture of the teachers in their costumes on the first day. The lead teacher is the costume designer at the museum. Grandma made this little colonial dress for Raene and when the teacher saw her she said, "She looks like she belongs to me."

On day two they made jewelry boxes and flowered headbands.

Raene liked day three the best. All the sugar they ate may have had something to do with that. They had a tea party and made homemade lemonade, cupcakes and sugared flower petals. Apparently Raene spent most of the class dipping her fingers in the bowl of sugar.
