Okay, so today I finished making the tussie mussie favors for the shower. I still have to add the bath salts, but that will only take a few minutes. I also made the centerpieces for the tables. Here's a pic of four of them. There will be a fifth, as soon as the dress comes from Ebay.
Each table will seat four people and will have a periwinkle undercloth covered by white lace. The tea sets will be different at each table, as well. I will try to use mostly blue sets.So these are the Barbie-sized dress mannequins that I found at the 99 Cent Store. I had hubby drill holes in the tops, then I spray-painted them white. I got all the dresses from Ebay for just a dollar or two each. I got the flowers on sale at Michael's, so each centerpiece cost around $5. Not a bad deal when you consider that I saw just the form with wedding dress at Farr's Stationary for $35. So I can use these pretty much for any bridal occassion, just change the flower and ribbon color. I could even just leave the white roses and change only the filler flower color.
All in all, I'm pretty proud of myself. I think I made something very nice, for an even nicer price! So, there you have it - my creations for today!
