I use your family's treasured fabrics to create new and beautiful items; among these are very special, custom made Christmas ornaments. This ornament was made from a grandmother's taffeta and lace bridesmaid's dress from 1954, and is draped with hand strung Czech glass beads. Each of her five granddaughters now has a prized personal reminder of her grandparent's most special day.
