FI DIY: Bow Ties! (PIP)

Just had to share.  FI has been talking about making bow ties for him and his guys since we got engaged over 2 years ago!  Now, with just about 2 weeks left before the big day, HE FINALLY MADE THEM!  Not too shabby either.

Hot Pink on one side and Green on the other (green will be on the back)


This is the pre-tied, velcro one for our ring bearer (who may drop out ...)


And the proof that FI really made them:

    That's impressive!  I don't even do DIY.  Are you getting excited that we are so close?  I can't wait for the single digits!

    <div>I have to admit I'm spoiled in that respect.  I teach school and have been out since the end of May. I've spent a lot of time lately getting ready for the wedding.  Last week we had all our final meetings with our vendors.  </div>

    I think it was Meaghan who's FI made the hangers.
  • That's awesome. They look great. Good for him for making them

    Julie's FI did too, and they're better than most of the ones on Etsy. All my FI did was stuff favor boxes (then promptly assemble them into a pyramid), so I'm jealous.

  • Thanks everyone!  I told FI how much everyone likes them.

    @PopPow - My FI did make hangers.  He's really good at super random stuff ... which has been incredibly helpful Smile
