#194 - Something Borrowed


I'm skipping the "something new" item until it's finished. I'm having the new thing made - in Manilla! My fiance's aunt is helping us out so I'd like to save that surprise for when I have it here in person - and can share photos!

So we move on to "Something Borrowed". Traditionally the bride should borrow an item from a happily married friend or family member, whose good fortune in marriage is supposed to carry over to the new bride.
For me this is my sister, and I will be borrowing the hair pin from her wedding!
My plan is that I actually wear it - dear sister couldn't because it got lost when the airlines LOST THE BAG IT WAS PACKED IN.
Oh yes - the week of her wedding, flying home, the airlines lost her luggage. Along with a lot of wedding neccessary items.
Thankfully it all worked out, and thankfully for me, it got returned in time for me to make use of it!
Stay tuned for the next installment of this series - next up, "Something Blue"!!
