Your Opinions Please!!!!

Hello Everyone!  If you read my blog from time to time you may have noticed that I got married recently... in March to be exact.  We had a great time!!!  I absolutely loved (and still love) my dress.  I honestly can't imagine getting it cleaned and storing it.... it would just be too sad.  I need it out where I can see it all the time.  It's a bit of a 'big' dress (ha!) so I really wouldn't be able to wear it again.  I'm thinking of cutting the bottom and displaying it in a shadow box?  Or making a pillow?  or a blanket?!?!?  AH!  What should I do!?!


The picture above is probably the best one of the flower detail on the train.

Had to put one in with the hubby....

All thoughts and ideas are welcome!

Thanks in advance!

Those dimmensional flower pillows are very popular right now. Depending on your home decor, that is what I would do.

Ahh, gorgeous dress. GORGEOUS. Found your blog through another blog I follow. :) Pic with your hubby and in the red coat and shoes is my fave. Great photo!

Beautiful! Love the red shoes with it. My dress is boxed in the basement. I used to work at a dry cleaners. I had them clean it, and boxed it myself, since I knew how to do it. A friend used my dress years later, and I re-boxed it again, so I could 'play' with it. Hopefully, someone will want to wear it again.
