Beautiful OOAK True Blood Inspired Garters-Ring Pillow-Hair Comb Combo-Perefct for Your Vampire-True Blood Themed Wedding

Being a "True Blooder" I just couldn't resist making something special for Sookie when she does get to hitch up to that vamp of hers-

Ahhh yes-true love-Bill and Sookie style...and what would a woman about to marry the vampire love of her life want for her wedding? Red and black of course-but something as feminine and sweet as Sookie is herself...

Presenting our first intrepretation of a True Blood inspired wedding set: First, a 6 x 6 ring pillow made from sheer, romantic black mesh with flocked roses slightly kissed with gold, tied with a blood red ribbon, red and deep black maribou feathers, black and red rose petals and a touch of pearl and bling in the center of the flower. Black ring ties complete the pillow.

Next, 2 gorgeous garters, one to keep and one to toss, both made from the same beautiful fabric, also with black and red feathers, rose petals and matching center flower bling. The upper and lower edges of each garter have been scalloped for a sweetly feminine look.

Last we have a matching hair comb, perfect to put in your hair while you party the night away. The comb has beautiful maribou feathers and a larger flower with both black and red in it, and a center made from pearls, crystals and a single large black center bead. Just beautiful under the romantic lights.

The garters will fit a 1X but can be made up to a size 3X at no additional cost.

Standard Size fits 14 - 18 inches

1x Plus fits 18 - 22 inches

2xPlus fits 22 - 26 inches

3xPlus fits 26 - 30 inches

Sets will come to you packaged in white gift boxes containing both the garter and the ring pillow. Deluxe sets will also come prepackaged for gift giving.

Gift wrapping is available upon request.

Garters! Garters! Sets!!

Yes--we are running late on the rollout of our garters. The weather here in Asheville has been RAIN RAIN RAIN and while we can sure use it, photographing a natural setting in the rain has been impossible!



So, rain or no rain, today we photograph-inside if necessary-and rollout our collection on September 18.



We have many designs-some still being made as I write this-and sizes. They will be available in our etsy shop-www.shabeestitches.etsy.com and on our website-www.shabeestitches.com.



Then kiddies-I'm taking on a challenge I started last year-wedding gowns-very individual and different. With True Blood, Twilight, Blood Ties and Vampire Diaries on my mind-I think the perfect place to start is a vampire wedding!!! Then again Victorian does ring bells for me too.



Hmmm...my favorite....blood red and black!!

Renaissance Cupids-Black Gold and Burgundy Ring Pillow-Unusual-Perfect for Renaissance Wedding

The great master Titian painted some of the most unforgettable cupids, as did Veronese and Tintoretto. Reproduced on this fabric are sweet, charming and equally unforgettable cupids in metallic gold on a black background with a solid black reverse side.

Harking back to that Renaissance period, this ring pillow will add a touch of romance and history to your Renaissance wedding.

Slightly larger than the average ring pillow, this one measures 11 x 11 inches. Trimmed with deep burgundy twist cord that has been embellished with gold beads, the burgundy color has been picked up in a very simple knot bow of organza ribbon. The ring ties are made of satin picot edged ribbon.

This pillow would most certainly be a one of a kind for your wedding, but would also be able to take up a place of honor in your home. Simply remove the ring ties and the bow if you choose, and you have a lovely pillow that would be a memorable keepsake of your special day.

This piece is the perfect heirloom to pass on to your children or grandchildren for them to have for their wedding!

Presented in a white gift box, ready for use or for giving.

Heart of Autumn-Ring Pillow Silk Dupioni Fall Leaves Flowers Monarch Butterfly

The golden glowing sunset of autumn casts red on everything as the sun slips behind the Carolina mountains. The nip is in the air-ever so slightly-the stray leaf that falls orange or red--autumn is in the air and with it comes the browns, golds, reds, oranges, greens and bronzes of what I feel is the most beautiful season of the year. A season already dressed up for a spectacular wedding outdoors in the golden mellow warmth of Indian Summer.

The "Heart of Autumn©" is a perfect reflection of that golden time.

The pillow is made from 100% silk dupioni in a gorgeous shade of orange that has been cross dyed red to produce a wonderful shade of burnt orange with rich, red overtones. The heart measures about 6 x 8 inches. Surrounding the heart is a beautiful amber brown beaded fringe with gold seed beads and gold metallic Chinese gimp.

Centered on the heart are fall leaves sprinkled with gold glitter in shades of orange,red and green, an orange bow, fall mums and a tiny Monarch Butterfly-the first sign of the changing season.

This piece is the perfect heirloom to pass on to your children or grandchildren for them to have for their wedding! Or a splendid reminder of special day in a very special season.

Piece by piece, every bride puts together her wedding until a beautiful whole emerges-family heirlooms that grow more precious with each use, fine fabrics old and new, flowers of breathtaking beauty.

Hand stitched to the upper curves of the heart is a matching set of handmade linen lace fragments that were rescued from the cuffs of a Victorian afternoon tea dress. They are light ivory and match the light ivory ribbon roses that adorn Rose Heart©.

The pillow measures about 7 1/2 inches long and about 8 1/2 inches across at the widest part of the heart not including the lace.The lace, which measures 2 1/2 inches wide is embroidered with flowers in pink and pale ivory. There is an organza hand strap on the back of the pillow made from pink ribbon that measures 1 1/2 inches wide.

This ring pillow was made not only for your wedding but to adorn your home as well. We hope that you will honor it with a prominent place in your home and that every glance in its direction will bring back memories of your wedding day, an occasion so precious and special that Queen Victoria deemed it "the happiest day of my life."
