Ms Simone encouraged Little Shop 2 fans to enter this year’s Ultimate Shopper competition for the chance to win full Little Shop collector sets and Coles Gift Cards.
‘I’ve been painstakingly sorting minis to create this stunning headpiece awash with colour, making sure I recycled the magnificent minis from last year,’ Ms Simone said.
‘The dress itself is made entirely from the adorable Coles Little Shop 2 Apron and Shopping Bag Sets.’

Ms Simone said anyone can show off their creativity with the Little Shop minis.
‘There are so many creative ways you can use your minis – use them as fridge magnets, for a costume, or just for the dollhouse,’ she said.
‘Last year I collected the cute Little Shop minis and created a showstopping headpiece. I posted it on Instagram with the #UltimateLittleShopper hashtag and then tagged Coles and came runner up – but I still think I should have won first prize.’
