But guess what?! I finally made two things for the wedding! WOO!
The first craft I took up was making the jewelry for my bridesmaids. I knew I wanted to make their jewelry so that it was somewhat special. I was also realistic that it would never look like fancy store-bought jewelry but that was a-okay with me :)
Our colors are chocolate, ivory and cranberry. The girls' dress are from David's Bridal and look like this in Truffle (think milk chocolate) color:
They are cute and simple. They can have straps if they want or not. I left that up to my ladies to decide what was comfortable for them.
So for my not so fancy but made from the heart jewelry:
What do you think? I am glad about how they turned out but also my own worst critic so I've asked a few folks their thoughts and all were positive.
As for the second craft, our Flower Girl is our niece and she will be 4. I didn't make her jewelry because I didn't want to overwhelm her. I decided to make her a hair barrette (which I forgot to take a picture of) and a flower girl basket. Please excuse my fingers in the picture. I was tired and uninterested in fiddling with it.
And now because you made it this far :)
