Sunny but colder today! I thought we were done with winter but it's come back to haunt us. Dipped into the 30's last night and supposed to again tonight.....sigh
Here's another finish for you to view.

| Complete with rose corsage this young lady box is reminiscent of days gone by, when young ladies received white roses in a corsage to wear to the prom. |
 |
| Later the flowers would be pressed in a book for a keepsake (or in Mom's freezer depending on what century it was) I can't tell you how many flowers were saved in my freezer. over the years...lol |
 |
| Made with seafroam colored cotton velveteen and seafoam and gold lace it is lined with a rich gold satin. It's simple but sweet and ultra-feminine. |
I didn't go to senior prom, so I didn't know about how flowers were kept. Pretty box... What will you use it for?
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment. I appreciate receiving them.
DeleteWe had fresh flower bouquets when I went to prom and both of my girls had large bouquets made out of the realistic artificial flowers. One year my oldest daughter had a huge bouquet made out of candy. It was beautiful and then she got to eat it!
ReplyDeleteYour box is so pretty!
The velveteen and lace on this box were left over from the outfit i made to wear at my daughter's wedding a couple of years ago. real cotton Velveteen is much easier to work with than velvet. Thanks for your comment.
Deletei still have the boxes of flowers that i FINALLY brought home from your freezer a few years back...lol they stayed there i think some as old as middle school!
