Happy Monday Everyone!
As the month of June comes to an end, I'd like to give a shout out to all the brides out there. I'm dedicating this entire week to you with a bouquet-full of blah to Tada! ideas you can use to personalize your special day.
This week's blah is an old handkerchief. Well, it's not exactly a blah when it's a special gift from an aunt or grandmother.Turn it into a Tada! by incorporating it into the wedding!
Make the handkerchief part of the bouquet. Wrap it around the flowers & secure with a ribbon.
Tada! Something old & something new for the blushing bride!
What is it about weddings... I just cannot get enough of them! x
ReplyDeleteGood morning Kellie! I looooove weddings, too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea! I love how the hankie looks like petals.
ReplyDeleteI love this idea, so vintage and chic! not to mention, full of love... great week Claire!
ReplyDeleteThanks Amanda & Nuit! I guess even non-brides can use this idea with a bouquet of flowers to be given as a gift =)
ReplyDeleteLOVE IT
ReplyDeleteThanks Brandy!
ReplyDeleteHi Claire,
ReplyDeleteI usually don't comment [as i type, stitch, etc. one hand].. but your handkerchief transformations have me totally blown away!!WOW!! I've been a hand stitcher/gifts on sewing machine gal for 38 yrs i guess and i have never seen anything like this!! I mean, move over Sewing w/ Nancy gal, as great as she is...I have been overwhelmed with nieces and nephews getting married these past 2 yrs, more next year-- and this will help me so much!!
I don't have any vintage kerchiefs but i will haunt the thrift stores.. plus im sure i could use my vintage-ish pillow cases and just cut to size to do this , perhaps adding embroidery of my own if i feel it needs it.. but thanks a bunch!!
It is ENTIRELY EXCITING TO SEE THE BLAH FOTO FIRST AND SCROLL DOWN TO THE EXCITING MAKEOVER FOR SURE!!!
i will be going thru all your blogs now just to see what ive missed!!
I'm so glad i found you [through Craft Gossip, which is an amazing source and so much fun].
No kidding, Blah to Tada!!
You are one special creative talented artist and your personality shines through.
Thank you again so much!!
Hi there Tea of Clarestitching! What can I say after this comment? I'm speechless. A million THANK YOUs aren't enough! You made my day! I'll make sure to go back to this comment when I'm feeling down -- it certainly lifts the spirits =)
