Thankyou for sharing so we can all enjoy it too.<br />I really want to thankyou for your comments, they make me smile and I enjoy listening to your ideas too. Corsages aren't one of my favourite things to do but I do make them. I prefer a bucket of flowers and a great big urn and then let me go and create !<br />In a few months I will be fully qualified and then there is a design course that I am interested in as an extra. I am really looking forward to that course. Do you make flowers for fun or are you a florist ? Do you have your own store ? <br />I have 6 button holes to go and I have finished all of my wedding. I best get back to it now or I'll be up until midnight. xMelaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12782511021846806709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814560581523730155.post-41961228918541841522013-03-21T00:15:11.300-07:002013-03-21T00:15:11.300-07:00Hello Betsy Thank you for coming to visit!

I should post pictures of my daughter wearing the Coton french night jacket for her photo shoot in the park in Gross Gerau. It was so fun to have for the photos!<br />The bulletin board will not be as detailed as your creative things are, I think I will like it done more simply than I usually do things!

I miss her very much...and my hubby knew she loved him. We both feel very blessed. I also love our Sons~I~Law. They are just right for each of our Daughters and are very good, fun, talented men. And they put up with my silliness and perfectionism pretty darn well. I try to not be demanding, and make things work as well as they can. I do hope our son marries a girl with no mother....then she will like me!

And, since I am donating the items,<br />I will put a sign behind that asking that when they are not longer want to use it, it is returned to me. I am using a combination of new and old. Some of the "vintage" may be more retro. The doilies I bought in Germany may be from the 70s, I don't really know, but I am using things that I purchased, knowing they would be used for craft type things. Do you think it will not work well? I need any info I can get!

I, too, had a wonderful mother-in-law, who treated me as if I were her own daughter. I was heart-broken when both she and my father-in-law both passed away at an early age. What a shame all in-laws do not treat the people their children marry in such a loving way. I never had any sons, but I can tell you that I love the men my daughters married as if I gave birth to them. They are decent men and have been good to me and my husband. Perhaps, there are circumstances when it is hard to love a child's spouse(for instance cases of abuse). But if a mother is not loving simply because of jealousy of a son's love for his wife, which is sometimes the case, everybody loses out on a lot of love that could have been shared. Thanks for sharing this lovely post about these wonderfully romantic pieces of work! lynn cockrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16250601457878656085noreply@blogger.com
