How to Sew your own Elegant Wedding Garter
Wearing and throwing a garter on your wedding day is an honored tradition for the big day. It is a key component of a bride’s wedding day attire that is hidden underneath the gown, waiting for the lucky groom to retrieve it and toss to all single men at the reception. Just like the bouquet of flowers, wedding garter is an integral part of the wedding day. And, this tutorial I got from CraftNerdArtLabs channel will show us a very easy step on how to make a wedding garter. So check this out.
Here are the things you’ll need:
- Stretch lace
- Adornments
- Needle and thread
Instructions:
Step 1. Cut the lace
Cut your lace according to your measurement (make sure your lace is stretchy so it won’t fall down your leg).
Step 2. Sew
Turn the lace inside-out to sew, use a straight stitch to put a seam in the garter.
Step 3. Mark the center of the lace
To add the adornments, mark the center with a pin.
Step 4. Add the adornments
Hand sew the adornment to attach to the lace.
Ta-dah!
And you’re done. You can also choose your lace color and adornments, or use an applique.
