Anatomy of a Lingerie Kit

Anatomy of a Lingerie Kit

bra kitYou purchased a Madalynne lingerie kit and now you’re all confused about what goes where? I didn’t realize this until someone emailed asking where and how they use the fabric and trims.

Feel free to bubble up any questions you may have in the comments below or via email.
