I found this Cow vacuum cleaner cover at a local thrift store for $3.99!!
She was handmade. Isn't she cute?

Her dress is a bit short, so I am going to add an eyelet or lace ruffle on the bottom.

That is so cute! My kids would probably play with the vacuum even more than they already do, with it looking like a cow, though. But what a great way to "dress up" the vacuum!

I have made 2 of the doll Vacuum covers. One was a cat and I sold her to a cat-fanatic friend, and the other was Raggedy Ann for my mother (because she collected RA memorabilia and made RAs and sold them). When she passed away, I brought her home, but I am thinking of selling RA now. I like the cow for the farmhouse. LOL!

LOL! Knowing my luck, I'd poke myself with a horn every time I rounded the corner.
