Help w/ dress straps
Need some help with dress straps & shoulders, Angel want to do a pageant but her BP side of dress keeps falling down, tried to shorting on side but then it id lop-sided, darn it and summers coming & she wants to wear more starppy dress (not a good idea due to scar on that side burns faster than arm (arm in 5 min.) We live in Florida so cover up are too hot. any ideas or just thought to help make this go better?? going to repost this on my facebook & hope I have some luck there too :0) melanie doss angelinas mom ROBPI
Re: Help w/ dress straps
Any chance you could rearrange the straps and make them criss-cross in back?

Okay - this will sound totally weird, but it works. Get some puff paint in the same color as the strap and paint dots or a stripe down the inside of the strap that keeps falling. (It's the same concept as the stuff on the bottom of anti-slip socks.) It's flexible, not irritating to the skin, and if done conservatively, is invisible.
Good luck!
Good luck!

I sometimes use these on my bras (unless I wear criss-cross)

Perfect the ccrossing straps worked on the starpy dresses and it looks like so far the puff paint is working on the pageant dress, she is soo happy! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH :0) (did try the bra thing her sister has some but they bothered her back, maybe when she is older she can use this for bras 7 dresses) Thanks again so much, HUGZ! melanie
