Will You Be My Bridesmaid?


A special day is coming up soon- so I wanted an extra special way of inviting my favorite ladies to be my bridesmaids! I started with a little watercolor portrait of each girl....

Then I used my button maker machine from American Button Machine (in 2.5" size) to create individual pocket mirrors for each girl.



Then I took a little trip to Michaels and picked up these items....




  • 4 Square Craft Boxes
  • Recollections: Wood Embellishment Tags (12 pc)
  • Recollections: Floral Embellishment Tags (48 pc)
  • Bead Landing: 20lb Hemp Cord 
  • Organza Bags in Aqua
  • Celebrate It: Paper Crinkle in white
I then created some printable burlap hearts to fit the exact size of my boxes (about 3 in by 3 in each).

I embellished each heart with my message and wedding date and added some little faux stitches using a sharpie. I then cut out each heart to be placed inside the box.
Next I "popped the question" on each of the little wooden tags.
Finally, I assembled each of the boxes and here are the final results!!!
... They all said "YES." ^_^
