Mini Sweater

Posted by Khris in Attire + Beauty, DIY Projects & Tutorials

Did you know that some churches/houses of worship require brides to have covered shoulders/arms (in other words: no strapless gowns)? Maybe your church requires it or maybe it’s just your preference to be a little more covered than your gown allows. Perhaps, even, you’d just like a sweet little cover-up to keep warm. Whatever your situation, this adorable mini sweater (a.k.a. the boobholder) project from Glampyre Knits perfect. Imagine it done is a soft, fuzzy white knit (cashmere) or a sleek metallic. Chic!

Beaded Rose

Posted by Khris in DIY Projects & Tutorials, Miscellaneous Projects

I love, love, love beaded flowers. They take a bit of patience to master but they’re worth it (if you like beaded projects).

BeadJewelryMaking has a nice tutorial for creating beaded roses. Wouldn’t these be lovely as boutonnieres? You could also create a whole bridal bouquet from them or sneak in a few into a fresh flower bouquet for added sparkle.

Seeds beads come in hundreds of colors so you’ll be able to make a pretty little flower to match your theme.

Petal Pin

Using a petal ribbon and a pompom, this project creates a cute fabric flower. It’d be perfect as a corsage or to pin on a handbag, flowergirl’s basket, or even to the bride’s gown.
