Andrea's Bridal Shower


Andrea's bridal shower was last week and it was so beautiful. We couldn't have asked for better weather and so many of her friends showed up to celebrate. It was at a winery in the middle of the country and it was so beautiful! Abbie and I were able to throw some food and activities together, I wouldn't say this is my specialty but we did ok! I can't wait for my friend to get married, the wedding is going to be wonderful and very beautiful!

I made this pillow for Andrea to put on her bed as part of her gift. I have a little tutorial below. I paired it with 3 bottles of wine in a basket for her!



Step 1: Buy the burlap, enough to cover the pilow form that you buy.
Step 2: Sew 3 sides of the burlap (I left the bottom seam open) and flip inside out.
Step 3: I printed out letters on Word and traced them on the burlap with a fabric marker.
Step 4: Put the pillow form into the burlap cover and stitch the bottom opening. I did a rough stitch with a thick black thread, it kind of looks rough but that was the look I was going for.

I actually made these cupcakes as well for the bridal shower, very surprised at my ability to bake and have people actually like them but it was successful.
