It has been a lot of fun to watch



Among Mayhem's favorites is the red dress actress Lupita Nyong'o wore at the Golden Globes, which Angie says took 10 minutes to make. Another fun one to make was Katy Perry's musical notes dress, which the singer wore to the Grammy Awards this year.Though she is a photographer, Angie says she has no fashion background at all "I wear the same jeans and t shirt every day," she jokes. But she can see that Mayhem may just have a calling.For now,paper drinking straws though,disposable wooden cutlery making dresses with her daughter is less about fashion and all about bonding. It all began when Angie found her own clothes hidden inside Mayhem's toy box. The mom then suggested that they try creating a dress out of construction paper, and now Mayhem is the one calling all of the designer shots. The pair use anything from construction and toilet paper to masking tape and glue sticks. While Mayhem isn't old enough to use a pair of scissors, she stands by and directs her mom Angie so that she will cut just the right piece out. 


"It has been a lot of fun to watch. She has learned that when you put the pieces flat next to each other, they won't work. [She knows that] to fit around your waist, you have to lay it at an angle," Angie explained to the Today Show. "She could layout construction paper right now and tape it all together into a dress. She knows how many pieces she needs for a top and bottom." 
Pulling Inspiration From Celebs 

Although the idea originally involved creating their own designs, now Angie likes to pull ideas off of the internet for Mayhem to replicate. Some ideas"e from the red carpet like you see above — Mayhem in replicas of Lupita Nyong'o and Jennifer Lawrence's gowns — and sometimes they even"e straight from the runway.http://cnbattachment.com/ 

Angie says that the replica of Lupita's dress only took ten minutes, and it's one of Mayhem's favorite looks!
