XP: My favorite purchase by far...

Hi ladies,

Below is by far my most special purchase for our wedding.  I had bouquet charms made of both my grandpas.  They both passed last year within months of each other but I love the fact that they are still here in spirit and will be with me on my special day.  The little yorkies in the pic were like my grandpas prized possessions so I for sure had to have that pic.  We always joked that he loved those dogs more then his children. Laughing   These are the proofs from the seller and I think she did a great job (and she's fast).  I just sent her the pics yesterday.  I cant wait to receive these.

    I love that. So sweet and a great idea. I've seen charms like this before or little lockets that hang on the bouquets as well. I plan on doing something similar with my nephew's picture.
  • Such a great idea!
  • Did you get them from Etsy? If so, what's the sellers name? Those are really nice!
  • This is a very touching way to honor your grandfather's!  Beautiful!

    Thanks ladies.

    The seller is KCowie. I found some other sellers that were a little cheaper but her quality to me seemed a little bit better IMO.  I'm thinking of going to Michaels and maybe attaching them to some kinda sprakly charm.  I'll decide once they get here.

    I've also seen where they can make them in to a boutonniere for a groom to wear as well in case they have someone they want to honor.

  • I'm doing the same thing with a picture of my father so he can walk me down the aisle in spirit.  I got a filigree frame charm and plan to put the picture in myself.  I hadn't thought about going this route, but it's a great idea.
