Wondering What to do with that Old Wedding Dress?
Well, I can tell you. Turn it into a christening gown for your newest grandchild or turn it into a flower girl dress for your son or daughter's wedding! I recently converted an old wedding dress into a christening gown for a customer and the results were stunning. Wedding dresses have so much sentimental value that you don't want to get rid of them but you also can only wear it once, so why not turn it into something that generation after generation can wear. It's really a fantastic way to recycle and since there's so much good stuff to work with on a wedding dress there's no problem making it absolutely beautiful. Oh and to have a baby or toddler or young child wear it, makes it that more beautiful and special. One thing though, you want the right person to do this, since it will be an heirloom and it's your old wedding dress. Someone with an eye for design and pattern making experience. That person that you can trust to listen to your ideas and your vision and to make your dress into a beautiful baptismal, or flower girl gown is me! Above are some pictures of a recent gown I completed from a 30 year old wedding dress for a 1 month old in the traditional 19th century decadent long front train style. So if you're in need of a beautiful heirloom for your son's or daughter's wedding or for your grandchildren email me at gabriellek1128@gmail.com or come visit my store at www.ikvothamashiach70.etsy.com and convo me there. I look forward to hearing from you!
If you're in the Rhode Island area I would love to talk with you in person!
