Bridesmaids have a tough job:
- provide emotional support your bff (aka stressed-out bride-to-be)
- help find the perfect dress (oh wait. that's kinda fun, right?)
- and throw a mother-effing rad bridal shower and bachelorette party.
Maybe you're thinking: Wait! we're supposed to do what? (don't worry. you're not the first to freak out at that last part)
I
know. You're rolling your eyes at the idea of sitting in a circle and
playing lame party games, being a part of awkward scavenger hunts that
involve strangers and cringing at the thought of buying penis straws
(unless you want penis straws and that is a choice every woman has got
to make for themselves).
* * * * *
But if you want a non-sucky briday shower activity or a 'effing awesome bachelorette pre-partaaaaaaay posse activity. These will save your day night:
now available in the do-it-yourself section of the shop!
Each kit includes supplies to make one, 15 inch two-tiered veil:
- detailed how-to instructions with illustrations
- 1 needle & thread
- 1 toothpick
- tulle
- 1 hair clip
- matching metallic/glitter ribbon
All you need to supply is:
- a glue gun
- scissors
- bad-ass "this weddin' ain't gonna stress me" craftin' moxie.
BONUS: each kit also includes a "Bride To Be" and "Team Bride" Stickers! oh yeah.
{{Currently available in hot pink or electric blue (more colors added in time)}}
I mean, all you really want to do is throw a party where you bond &
booze it up with your favorite gal pals, celebrate the happiness the
bride is feeling and definitely create bachelorette party solidarity through not-totally obnoxious bachelorette-themed stuff on the market (I think you know what I mean).
These
kits were designed with the beginner in mind and come with clear easy
to follow instructions. Even if you've never sewn a thing in your life:
you will be able to make this veil.
The DIY Bachelorette Party Veil kits
are sold individually but if you want to buy more than one (so each
member of your Bachelorette Posse can proudly sport one) there are discounted rates when ordering multiples as you'll find here in this section of the Pretty Good Things' Etsy shop.
- the kits rule -hard- for not-sucky bachelorette/shower party festivities.
- it's easy peasy (beginners and up!)
- it's a fun group activity (just watch the glue gun use after you've had a few drinks)
- multiple uses: wear it during the wedding rehearsal! and gift it to the flower girl afterwards {{OR wear it watching re-runs of say yes to the dress (trust me, I speak from experience- ahem-)}}
