PIP: Your Veil (or other accessories)

Yes, I'm procrastinating on getting work done... DH is telling me things like take one for the team, feel the burn, no pain, no gain, push it... dear lord make the exercise analogies stop!

 

 

Mine was vintage and reconstructed, the wax flowers and tulle were from one grandma's veil, the lace cap was from my other grandma.

Sorry for the super large picture of myself, but it was the best one to show off the veil

Thank you, I have no idea why I cannot resize those pics.  Yours is great too, so unique.

No prob, you and your veil look lovely so it's not annoying. Wink I love veils with lacy edges.

Loving all the pip wedding photos too ;)

 Veil I found at a vintage shop and reconstructed the netting

 

My Favorite accessory was this fox fur stole from the 1940's that belonged to my grandmother. She said she'd been saving it for her granddaughter's wedding.
Love.

I looooved my veil. Unfortunately, I don't think we got a good picture of it that shows the detail. This is the best one I could find:
