Something Blue, etc. (PIP)

ktelizabeth86

I wanted a tag with FI and I's names and our wedding date for the inside of my dress as my something blue. My Aunt does quilting, etc. so just yesterday I asked her if she would be able to make me a tag. She went home and (the same day) came up with this:
 
It's even more beautiful than I was expecting. So excited to have it done (and she was excited to do it for me)!!

This weekend FI, my Dad and I also finished building two easels for our program window and chalkboard menu. I stained them yesterday:
 

And, we also built and stained the supports for our seating maps. The maps our difficult to see in the pic, but they are of different places along Skyline Drive where FI and I have gone (we love to camp). FI proposed on our last trip there so we are using those places as table names. I still have to stain the top beam and make a sign telling everyone what these are, and then we're going to put some pics of us at Skyline up top.

I love it all! I am using a window for my menu and "program" details and have been looking for an easel. Was this one hard to build? Did you guys just make it up or did you follow plans?

I LOVE your something blue!! My mom's best friend quilts and does embroidery and she keeps telling me... If you ever want anything embroidered, or anything for he wedding, just ask!! I might have to steal this idea and give her a job!! I am planning on asking her to help me quilt my wedding dress after the wedding and this would be so incredibly prefect to include!!!

My Dad just kind of made this up, but he can build anything. I sort of tell him what I want and then he just puts it together. I can tell you we used 2 x 3's. Wish I could be more help. Hope you can find something!
