DIY Up-cycled Wedding Dress Bouquet

August 14, by Shellie Wilson.

I think we have all heard the horror stories of Grandma or Mother wanting us to where their vintage wedding dress, and whilst some of use can get away with it, some of the others turn red with fury just at the thought. Well, here is the perfect DIY solution and I have to admit it looks amazing. Use the up-cycled wedding dress or dresses to create a stunning Wedding bouquet. The best thing about this wedding bouquet is you could use the dresses, viels or trains from multiple family members. Such a pretty way to honour them as you walk down the aisle.  Add vintage jewellery to the centre of flowers for a stunning finish.

You can see the full tutorial on how to up-cycle a wedding dress to a bouquet here.

Traditional Cross Stitch with a Touch of Snark

At first glance at My Big Toe Designs’ website, you might think you’ve stumbled upon a pretty classic cross stitch designer who makes samplers using bible verses and traditional designs.

And there is that, but if you look a little closer, you’ll see another side, with designs that call cat hair a “specialty fiber,” refer to the voices in their head saying to eat the chocolate, and that as far as everyone else knows, this is a “normal” family. 

These designs are billed as whimsical on the My Big Toe Designs website, and they are that, especially compared to the other designs on the site. Who couldn’t relate to “If it’s not one thing, it’s three others” or “I barely survived yesterday and it’s already today”?

As mentioned above, in addition to the snarkier side, this designer makes a lot of samplers and inspirational designs with bible quotes and heartfelt phrases. There are also holiday designs, mostly for Christmas with a religious bent. The pinkie series offers sets of small Christmas designs that can be framed in tiny frames, used as ornaments or given as gifts.

In addition to all the patterns on offer, the website includes tutorials that show how to use stitched fabric in different ways, including making a biscornu, covering a wooden block, making a needle book, a flat ornament and an ort box (if that last one doesn’t mean anything to you, check out this post all about orts).

There also are a few free patterns on the website, including designs about winter, stitching friends, being a grandparent and more.

While you can browse all of My Big Toe Designs’ patterns on the website, you can’t actually order directly from them. But there is a list of websites on the site that you can use if you don’t have a local needlework shop that happens to carry the designs you want.
