Weddingbee Blog

A few months ago I wrote this post about my bouquet charms.

Well, I finally finished them.

I’m kind of a bad blogger and I didn’t take any pictures of the process. However, I will promise to make y’all a tutorial soon, as Mr. CC wants me to make more of them.

First, let me introduce you to the people we are honoring (these are also the pictures I used).

This is Mr. CC’s Poppa. He passed in the early ’90s. Mr. CC basically grew up on this man’s lap.

This is Mr. CC’s maternal grandmother, who he never met. Isn’t she lovely?

This is Mr. CC’s Granddaddy. I had the honor of meeting this man before he passed away last May. He was a wonderful man, and we both miss him tremendously.

Those are my maternal grandparents on their wedding day. My Grandma passed last June. She was gone a long time before that; Alzheimer’s is a terrible disease. My Grandpa will be present at our wedding.

These are my paternal grandparents on their wedding day. Man, wasn’t my Poppa handsome? He looks so much like my Dad. Anyway, Mernie (my grandmother) also suffers from Alzheimer’s and was put in a specialized Alzheimer’s unit in November. She hasn’t recognized me in years. Poppa is going to try and make it.

I’m really pleased with how these turned out, and they were super easy to make.

My Grandma has a little bubble in her head. Oops. Anyway, I think they look great.

Tutorial coming soon!
