    One of my BM's is letting me use her headpiece for the something borrowed.
    I thought about usnig my mother's veil for the something old.  If that doesn't work out, I may try to borrow a brooch or other piece of jewelry to tie onto my bouquet or use as a hairpiece at the reception.
    I think a ringbearer pillow or something of that sort would be wonderful to use, but my parent's didn't keep theirs.  =(

    Mine is a tradition in my family. Instead of having a floral bouquet, we have a brooch bouquet. Everyone who comes to the bridal shower must bring a brooch; therefore, these are my something old, new, borrowed and blue (the blue one is passed down in the family)

    It will hopefully kinda end up looking like this...

    I have some of my late grandmother's jewelry that I'll wear, as well as their wedding rings that will be tied into my bouquet. I think jewelry is a pretty standard "old," so ask your relatives.

    My grandmother has told me that she would love for me to use/have her and my grandfather's toasting flutes, so I'm using that as my something old.  Most couples save theirs, so ask around!
