BEFORE and AFTER

Commissioned to fix a store bought  garter that was recieved as a gift! 

 BEFORE
was a pretty garter with lovely venise lace print... but was generic and the little bow was just GLUED on... 


AFTER
My Bride requested me to sew on a few dozen faux pearls and Swarovski Crystals and replace the bow with the decoration shown  -  4 bows and 3 small satin roses.    Then sew on her names to the sides of the band and add the date to the Inside of the back.   It came out lovely. 


Message from my bride:  (this is what makes my job so WONDERFUL)

OMG! - it's gorgeous - just exactly how I pictured it!!! Thank you so very much. I am soooo excited. You did a fantastic, professional job.
Ship it out - can't wait to wear it :D
Have a great day - you made mine!

absolutely amazing! It doesn't even look like the same garter. I'm in awe, great job.
