The Give Away Panties are finished and ready to ship out to the lucky winner! I made them out of my favourite cotton, it's got hints of pink, blue and brown all on a lovely creamy base. I added a ruffled layer of lace under a ruffled layer of torn chiffon. The legs and waist are trimmed in satin elastic. I really hope she likes them! I will be offering these up for sale in any size in my Etsy shop soon.
I've been playing around a lot with ruffled, torn chiffon. I really like the effect of the frayed edges. So delicate and antique looking.
Yesterday I placed the order for my wedding cake and cupcakes. Dan had to work so the decision was left up to me. I've been really lucky to have a fiancé who actually likes to be involved with the whole wedding process and has been really helpful, so I was nervous about making the decision alone. We went with cupcakes for the guests, chocolate and vanilla with cream coloured icing. Some will be done with polka dots in black or raspberry, and some will have bows. The cake is just going to be a 6" cake to cut, and will also have a bow around it. I was surprised that Dan actually liked this idea! I was really worried it would be too girlie, but I think it's going to look really nice, and hopefully not too "wedding-y".
My mom and I also picked up some flowers to start thinking about the table arrangements. We got some carnations, a big white flower that looks like a giant aster, and some filler called wax flower. We stuck them in a mason jar, and voila!
I think I might finally have everything sort of under control.
PS. my heartsy deal may be going on sale on Tuesday!
