And so a journey begins...

I have recently been asked to create multiple pieces for a wedding, the event to take place in July requires some  hunting for new vintage brooches for a brooch bouquet, a custom design for a veil and head piece, delicate and eloquent design for rings for the brides maids, two fancy custom boutonniere pins for the best man and her son, and decked out bow tie, Retro Betty style for the second son.

Honored- I am excited to be a part of this brides journey to a new life. A continued journey for Retro Betty into the bridal market, and an ongoing journey of creativity and design.

Follow as it unfolds- a tale of buttons, beauty and bestowal...
