Homemade Touches or Not
When my daughter was engaged I scoured the wedding magazines right along side her. I also studied the internet, and visited the library. I checked craft books and magazines. I vowed to make my daughters’ wedding memorable, not just for her but for our guests. I wanted some different touches and if they weren’t out there to buy I would make them. But, I was pretty much on my own, my daughter was not crafty nor did she want to be. It is a good thing that we had a little over a year to plan the wedding and I put that time to good use. I was always on the lookout for ribbon, pearls, tulle, flower containers, fabric, pretty boxes, whatever I thought we could use. After many prototypes, discussions, and just plain discards, my daughter and I decided on a few items that might be fun and doable for her big day.
