As a former dancer, I have acquired a closet full of old
dance costumes that I just can’t seem to part with. If you were a dancer, you probably know what
I mean. I danced for 12 years of my
life, and with that came multiple pairs of dancing shoes a year, leotards,
tights, skirts, shorts, and the infamous recital costumes.
But what is really the point in keeping all of these
costumes? It’s not like I can ever fit
into the tutu that I wore in the first grade again. I was 6 years old. Plus, it’s bright yellow with multi-colored
polka dots. Not exactly something I’d
want to wear on a dinner date. But
nonetheless, in the closet it hangs.
If you follow me on Pinterest, you may have seen one of my
recent pins that has inspired this post, and has finally given me the answer to
this question (not that I was that concerned with the fate of my cherished
items, but when my parents asked about them, I never truly had an answer for
them).
I’ve always had a very clear image in my head of what I want
in “my adult house” when I grow up and have that kind of money, especially in
my own personal office. But now, I have
this new addition. I want to showcase
this important part of my life. After
all, why shouldn’t I?
If you have a little girl (or even a big girl) that’s a
dancer in your life, or know of a dancer, please show them this idea. Costumes can be an emotional attachment and
this is the perfect way to display hard work and dedication!
Until Next Time, Happy Reading,
Allison
