It doesn't matter whose wedding is coming up - it's yours.your own, someone you know or a relative. If your golden hands are thirsty for activity, then the upcoming wedding is a great occasion to provide them with this activity. Because craftswomen are able to make truly exclusive accessories for a wedding with their own hands. Do you think that expensive wedding salons demand consumer goods? Only hand-made! So why not make such accessories with your own hands? Let's find out what you can put your hands to.
Accessories for the bride
The bride, naturally, performs at the weddingthe main role (even more important than the groom!). And she is a more important person, and there is more attention to her, and her outfit is richer. Not in the sense that it is expensive (although, this is also the case), but in the sense that this outfit has a lot of components. Here are some additional accessories that you can easily make yourself.
- Garter
An accessory that has become a complement to our outfitof the domestic bride quite recently. In general, an optional element, but so erotic and almost inseparable. Soft elastic, guipure, lace, satin, silk, ribbons and braid: that's all that is needed for this intimate detail of the costume. True, the garter can also be crocheted or woven using the tatting technique. In a word, needlewomen who know how to sew and knit will be able to embody their skills in the process of making a chic garter for the bride.
- Handbag
Again, any needlewoman can do it easilywho can handle a needle and thread, can sew a handbag for the bride with her own hands. Usually this accessory only vaguely resembles a handbag. Of course, you can make a mini-pattern of a real bag, sewing it from the same satin or guipure, or you can limit yourself to the currently popular form of a bag or a tote bag, decorated with embroidery, pearls, flowers and ribbons.
- Decoration
Oh, this is an inexhaustible topic!Any bride can decorate herself endlessly. What can be made that is so exclusive? Flowers are the first thing that brides all over the world decorate themselves with. For example, in Japan, silk flowers for a wedding dress are made using the traditional tsumami kanzashi technique. The decorations are simply gorgeous! Such flowers can complement a hairstyle, add a special chic to a dress, and even “grow” on shoes. By the way, artificial fabric flowers are generally an integral part of a bride’s wedding dress. So they can be made using any technique.
- Umbrella
Even such a thing is within the reach of particularly skilled craftswomenaccessory. Any small umbrella-cane in their hands can turn into an umbrella for the bride. Spray paints will transform the "skeleton" of this accessory, and guipure, satin and lace will turn it into a real exclusive addition to the outfit. By the way, a summer version of the umbrella can be crocheted.
Accessories for the groom
Here everything is more laconic and there is not much room to show off. However, you can also make handmade accessories for the groom.
- Boutonniere
Of course, it is considered good form todaya boutonniere made of the same flowers as the bride's bouquet. However, a boutonniere made of organza or silk also has a right to exist. And if such an accessory is made by the bride's hands... Moreover, a boutonniere does not necessarily have to look like a mini-bouquet. It can also be a completely extravagant decoration, including creative elements that emphasize the individuality of the groom: dice, guitar strings, fishing rod floats, figurines in the form of musical instruments and other interesting things.
- Scarf
If the lapel of a wedding jacket is decoratedboutonniere, then a corner of the scarf should be sticking out of the pocket. And such a scarf will be a very touching gift if the bride herself sews it. But also given (and sewn!) by a mother or sister, it will not only be a pleasant present, but will acquire a symbolic meaning.
Accessories for registration
Special accessories also “participate” in the marriage registration ceremony
- Ring cushion
Some limit themselves to taking suchpillows for rent. But you can also make an exclusive thing that you will keep after the wedding. Moreover, making such a pillow does not require any special skills. Beautiful fabrics, lace, braid, cords for decoration plus imagination and artistic flair.
- Wedding glasses
Of course, this accessory is needed not only inThe registry office. At the registration, such glasses only begin or continue their "participation" in the wedding celebration. By the way, this is one (if not the only) accessory that will be useful to the newlyweds in their future life: beautiful dishes are never superfluous. Wedding glasses can be simply decorated with ribbons or lace, or you can use special materials (plastic, cold porcelain) or paints and create something exclusive and fabulously beautiful.
- Crochet towel
Required attribute.The newlyweds kneel on it during the wedding ceremony. Since ancient times, such a towel was embroidered by the bride. Today, the wedding towel can be decorated with symbolic embroidery, as well as Richelieu embroidery, openwork, lace border or applique.
Guest accessories
Guests at a wedding are also entitled to certainaccessories. Some of them are traditional, and some have become fashionable in our country only recently. It is for making such accessories that knowledge of "office" handicrafts will come in handy.
- Invitations
Exclusive wedding invitations will putthe beginning of a vivid impression from such a grand event. Here you will need such handicraft techniques as quilling (paper rolling), paper plastic, silhouette cutting, assemblage. And how exactly you will be able to design wedding invitations depends only on your imagination and practical skills.
- Guest Cards
Quite an innovative (for us) element.wedding table decoration. Not everyone organizes a wedding feast so orderly. But if you adhere to Western traditions, you can also make original cards yourself. To do this, you just need to be able to write or draw beautifully, and also use some elements of scrapbooking and cardmaking.
- Bonbonniere
Also completely new to our traditionswedding accessory. Bonbonnieres are small boxes with sweets that are given to guests as a token of gratitude for participating in the wedding celebration. Such boxes are made of cardboard and decorated with colored paper, lace, ribbons, and drawings. So this accessory is also quite within the power of skilled needlewomen. Here are the wedding accessories that you can make with your own hands for one of the most important events in your life.
