Hand-Embroidered Handkerchiefs
2012
Crafts
For my wedding in June 2011, I came up with the idea to hand embroider handkerchiefs for all of the women in my family and my bridesmaids. I embroidered their first initial and a flower in either their favorite colors or colors that I thought fit them well. I have since started selling these on my etsy shop: www.etsy.com/shop/jennysimsmakesthings
