Custom garters are my absolute favorite! They allow me to work one on one with brides, which is rare in my everyday life as I’m a solorpreneur in a rural area. I love hearing y’all’s stories, getting to know... https://t.co/0merk75A3b

Happy Saturday!! What are y’all doing this weekend? I made it a point to wake up early to watch the sun rise. When the seasons change we get a lovely mist in the mornings and it’s a bit magical. Being that I’m... https://t.co/QshsWVnrlP

Peachy pink pearls arrived from Italy 😍 So naturally I already had chantilly lace from a French mill and velvet dyed to compliment the pearls.

Anyone else feel like fall is on its way?? We had a few cooler days (by cooler I mean the humidity was below 60% and I could still breathe when outside 😂) and fruit season is nearing a close here. Warmer months... https://t.co/V3mdhidPpp

My favorite part of the design process is when brides follow up with images of their beloved pieces. To remember and take the time to follow up (let’s face it, it takes months to get those wedding photos back!)... https://t.co/NP9CFVr6hR

How do y’all spend your weekends? I like to slow things down and try new recipes. So when my dad gifted me some delicious Alabama peaches I knew I had to try @katie_clova’s peach muffin recipe. And oh-MY-gosh... https://t.co/5WAsXU2tn6

The new Stella garter has been in my heart for some time now. Some garters take years to come to fruition, but it’s always heartfelt and worth the wait.
