Vintage Handkerchief Embroidery Workshop
Join Ray of Sunshine Crafting Co. at Hand-Me-Gowns Bridal for a special Small Business Saturday embroidery workshop!
We're giving thrifted vintage handkerchiefs a second life by turning them into one-of-a-kind, personalized keepsakes. Whether you're a bride-to-be making your own something blue, a bridesmaid creating a thoughtful gift, or simply someone who loves a creative afternoon, this workshop is for you!
Bring your mom, bridesmaids, besties, or come solo! It's the perfect opportunity to connect, swap wedding planning stories, and make something meaningful for yourself or someone special.
🪡 How It Works
1. Choose your handkerchief: Browse a collection of beautiful thrifted vintage handkerchiefs and find the perfect one for your project.
2. Design your keepsake: Mix and match cursive letters, names, initials, dates, sweet phrases, and little embellishments to create a design that's uniquely yours.
3. Trace your design: Using special water-soluble embroidery paper, you'll trace and arrange your design before placing it onto your handkerchief. No drawing skills needed!
4. Learn to stitch: We'll teach you beginner-friendly embroidery stitches and guide you through bringing your design to life. Once you're finished, the paper simply dissolves in water, leaving your beautiful embroidery behind!
No embroidery experience needed! Everything is designed with beginners in mind.
