Custom Designed Handbags for Friend's Wedding

Christinweddingbags_4

I made these bags for my friend Christin's wedding. They came out so pretty and looked just beautiful with her gown and her bridesmaid ensembles.

I was so thrilled to be able to make bags for Christin's wedding, since I was the one who set her up with my husband's friend, Chip. How many times do you play matchmaker and the results end up like this? Certainly not many. I met Christin when we were homeroom moms for our sons, Bennett & Jordan, in Kindergarten. She had been divorced for a few years and our friend Chip, who has been friends with my husband Bill for over 30 years, was also divorced with two young girls. I thought it would be fun to introduce the two of them. My husband, Bill, swears he was responsible, so I'll just let him believe that. Isn't it funny how when something works out, everyone wants to be the one who was responsible?

The bag above is Christin's wedding bag.

The two below are the bridesmaids bags carried by Chip's daughters, Madison & Taylor. We did a different bag for each girl.

In my next post, I'll show you her adorable flowergirl, Caitlin, and how she's chosen to use her purse now.
