Melissa’s TANJA Shower Curtain Dress

First seen over at Ikeahacker.com, I’ve been in love with this beautiful shower curtain dress made by Melissa Fehr for years. Gorgeous detailing, like the hot pink piping and a lacy edging to the cotton lining on the inside make this dress a true standout.  Matches the hot pink wellies perfectly!

Melissa’s not a one hit wonder, though! Other IKEA constructions:
