Bridesmaids!

I've been keeping busy the last few weeks with projects. this is one I've been dying to post about, and now that I've heard back from everyone, I can!

I've been working on my bridesmaid invitations since march. I wanted them to be something special, that people could keep. I chose poppies and ranunculus because they will hopefully be my wedding flowers! Each one has a pocket on the back, with a personalized letter. I totally cried while writing the letters, these lovely ladies mean so much to me.

I personalized each one, too. They are all a little different, for various reasons like fabric size, learning as I went, and who I was designing for.





This one is for my little sister Asha! She's not into my whites yellows and oranges at all. So I did some soft peachy pinky colors, and worked in some cool colors. Looking at it reminds me of her somehow.




This one is for my cousin Sam. We've been very close since she was little, and she's more like a sister. She loves bright colors, and so I love the fiery reds and oranges for her. And I HAD to put the unicorn on the back.





This one is for my good friend Rosei. It's not a "best friend" thing, I don't think I could say that I have a best friend, unless it was Erik. But I always know I can talk to her about anything, and I love how supportive of each other we've become (we've been friends since we were 13!). So, I figured she had to be a bridesmaid.

I was thinking classic, Modern, Mad Men-esque for hers. I love the dots, the bold yellow, the dusty rose color. And it was hers that gave me the idea for the little loops on each. She's so wonderful about putting up things that people make for her all over her house. It always makes me smile to see pictures of her place!



And, last but not least, they all agreed. I'm so excited!
