Shabby style, upcycled from elements gleaned from antique stores, thrift shops, second-hand stores, etc. The sleeve were taken from curtains, the body is a tablecloth, and various embellishments from doilies and runners. Also, the various elements were dyed in tea, coffee, and get this: black beans. I have plans to guild the lily even more-so, if you can imagine. So this is just a tease. I'll post a full length, back and front, once I'm done.

I'd like to see the whole thing. With just the parts it reminds me of stuff my grandmother had in her house. And I do not mean that as an insult, my grandmother had a very well decorated home!

I intend to post full lengths, but I just don't feel quite "done" enough to do so now.... And, yeah... It is grandma stuff, but probably not being used the way grandma would have.
And, this, coming from me - I have 8 grandchildren, so far....

That lace is seriously gorgeous! I also really like that shade of green.

The dress is simply beautiful, a labour of love. I admire the creativity and talent that has gone into this - I look forward to viewing the post wedding photos.

Congratulations to your son (and to all of your family)! The dress is super cute. I'll be watching to see a picture of it worn.
