[Challenge & Achievement] Day 12 or so...(I think?) Bridal Booknook

Ok, I think I am almost at the 2 week mark on this one. On a good note, all of my flowers are done…(without ANY roses).


I couldn’t find any to fit the scale and I have exhausted my efforts in making them. Another thing, if you’ve never made 3 bows all attached to each other with (somewhat even spacing), you don’t want to.

I did cut away the sheer fabric that was showing at the BOTTOM of the scallops on my dress…and I added the translucent beads to each scallop.

Another thing…I am trying to finish this darn chandelier…BUT they give you 6 pieces to add with only FIVE points on this upper flower (while the lower one has 6)

NO way will this work out evenly!

I am hoping to finish this one up by the weekend. If slow and steady wins the race…I am crushing it!

Oh, I think I did! I am trying so hard to keep up :slight_smile:

Everything is amazing!

Thanks so much for your kind words. @Carmie . I don’t aspire to be anyone’s hero…only their inspiration. :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

There will be no more flowers. I am done. I may add a bit more greenery in spots and I have plenty of other dried flowers left if I want to fill something in a bit more. NO roses at my son and daugther-in-laws wedding. Just lilac and purple vibes. @jeanneL

Thanks so much. You and your clay and wire works are certainly inspiring to me @Carmie . We all have our strong spots to share.

Hi Nita_Davis! Wow, Day 12 and your Bridal Booknook is really coming along! I adore how you’ve tackled those flowers and added the translucent beads to the dress scallops, what a brilliant touch. That chandelier with the 5 points and 6 pieces sounds like a real head scratcher, but you are absolutely crushing it with your slow and steady determination! We are all rooting for you to finish by the weekend!

You are doing an amazing job on the Nita. It’s looking great.

Your persistence really shows! Nicely done :smiling_face: and I totally get that problem of the chandelier, it’s so frustrating when it just doesn’t add up :sweat_smile:

The math ain’t mathin’… You’ve killed me with that one :rofl:

This one is taking you a long time! But hey, it’s all about enjoying the process, as I always like to say. You’ve done an amazing job! Even if the bowls situation was killing you, if the roses weren’t possible, or if the maths didn’t mathin.

You rock, and you keep showing it :smiley:
