Something Blue

We're not doing a garter toss or anything... we're a little old for all that.  But every bride needs something blue, so I decided to make a garter.

I had this lace from an earlier garage sale day.


And a spool of blue satin ribbon.


I made a casing out of the ribbons, added the lace, and a few little embellishments... voila!  Something blue.


I'm pleased with how it came out, and it was quite a bit cheaper than the store bought ones.  I would guesstimate about $3.00.  More accessories to come... what did you wear for something blue on your wedding day?

    A blue garter not unlike yours, made for me by my Grandmother. I still have it, it was so precious to me that after throwing it I swapped it back for a bottle of champagne. That was 30 years ago :)
