Something Old Something New
Today is an eclectic mix of things to show you. The first comes from a planter outside our front door. I love mixing colors of flowers. The more the merrier!
We've had three incredible rains here this month (that's about three more than usual), so my flowers are doing nicely. My flowers would like to add a personal thank you for the rain because their owner isn't the best when it comes to taking care of them.
Would you believe that the next picture is of the wreaths that my bridesmaids wore in their hair at our wedding a century, a few years ago?
A dear friend of mine who was in my wedding came to my daughter's wedding. She had given her bridesmaid outfit to my daughter about a year ago and we decided to make something out of the blouse for "something old". We made a garter. Would you also believe that I don't have a picture of that at the moment? I do, however, have a picture of the skirt hem. It is quite pretty.
Well, I think I will stop here. Short and sweet. Have a lovely weekend and stay cool.
I am linking with Show and Tell Friday and Pink Saturday.

I had made a wreath for our daughters hair when she married and she still has it. The colors in your wreath are still very vibrant and so pretty. The hem on the dress is gorgeous!!

Happy Pink Saturday Holly Sweetie...
What a gorgeous share this morning. I so love stopping by to see what you have to share.
What beautiful flowers before we enter. Mine have pretty much all gone to sleep from the heat here in the desert. Nope, no blooms in sight here. Yours are just so inviting.
Love the beautiful wreath. How vibrant the flowers are still. So pretty.
That hem is gorgeous. So detailed. Love it. Wonderful memories aren't they? Thank you for sharing this morning. Have a gorgeous weekend.
Many hugs and much love sweetie, Sherry

What a beautiful post! I love the wreaths! I remember when it was the style to wear them for any special occasion! I hope you can get a picture of whomever caught the garter!
Happy Pink Saturday!

I wanna see the garter! :) I bet it is beautiful. :) Your flowers are so lovely.... we are just weeding and weeding and weeding. It is so hot here that it is really a struggle to keep anything alive.
Thank you so much for your kind comments! I hope you have a lovely week.

Great ideas for "something old". Happy belated pink Saturday Holly. :)
Hi Holly,
Congratulations on the wedding of your daughter. She is beautiful! I wanted to answer your question but I couldn't find a way to.
So, I'm doing it here.
The pink book in my pics is not a bible cover, but a journal I picked up while on vacation. That would be so cool if it was though..all the girls would want it!
Hugs,
LaDonna
Beautiful wedding memories! Love the flowers! Such a wonderful share! Happy Monday!
