Wedding pomander
Kissing ball or pomander I found that these are called. I made two for the flower girls and since the ages were different I made one slightly smaller as she was only three years old. I never made these before so I searched on you tube how. I love you tube the things I learn from there, but I did a course for making fresh and artificial flowers. I think it is better to know how they are made though I was very, very challenged doing the bride bouquet and no one had a video about large one. I tried many Technics and errors before I came with the ONE. The pearl ribbon I love it so much for these kissing balls. I used smaller roses for these.

Ring cushion
My daughter asked my to make her a ring cushion for her wedding and to buy it was $30 or more. I can make it for much less money and it will be original. I bought some satin material, delicate lace if I may say so Two different sizes of white satin ribbons and a lovely heart brooch to go in the center of the cushion. I enjoyed making this cushion I made it 8 by 8 inches. I joined the lace from the middle because the lace I bought was about 3 inches or so and I wanted the edges to look like the picture. I centered one thin ribbon and one wide ribbon before I pinned well. The ribbons were as wide as my cushion which was 8 inches.ans sewed the cushion all around except for a gap of 4 inches or so. I inserted some polyester filling and sewed by hand the opening neatly. Done a nice size wide ribbon for the top and added the brooch in the middle too. I also put a thin ribbon for the rings. So from the back you can see a thin ribbon to stick your hand to hold the cushion. I really like how it came. It looks more expensive then the ones I saw at the shops. Material wise and all. I am very pleased with the finish look.
