Vintage Style Seam Binding

I just LOVE vintage style seam binding, it it so soft and silky, the colours are fabulous and it is so versatile!
It is made from 100% Rayon - Rayon is a manufactured regenerated cellulose fiber. Because it is produced from naturally occurring polymers, it is neither a truly synthetic fiber nor a natural fiber; it is a semi-synthetic fiber. Rayon is also known by the names viscose rayon and art silk in the textile industry. It usually has a high luster quality giving it a bright sheen. Wikipedia

This seam binding is great for adding a tag to a package, tied around a gift, hoarding for decoration in a pretty glass jar or you could even sew with it and use it for it’s original purpose - the possibilities are endless!

I currently have 24 different colours in my shop modestly priced at £1.05 for 3 meters, however there are over 200 available colours, with imagination provoking names such as Glamour Peacock, Fireweed, Rancho Red and Soapstone.

Alice in Wonderland

I spend a lovely afternoon on Friday trawling an Antiques Market in Towcester and it seemed to turn into a Alice in Wonderland themed event with my first find being this beautiful picture...






















I am not sure it is specifically meant to be a picture of 'Alice' however the little blue dress, white pinny and curly locks are so reminiscent of the Disney image I just had to buy it.
This purchase was promptly followed by a gentleman stallholder propositioning me...
'I forgot I had this lurking under the table would you be interested'
















OF COURSE I was!!
As I am sure you can imagine I was delighted and as I handed over my pennies, two people approached me eyeing up my new purchase with obvious envy!!
So my 'Alice in Wonderland' day out has prompted me to show off all my themed tags as promised a few weeks ago!

I hope you like...

Make A Wish

Why not theme your wedding around the magic of wishes...
Favours
For the important people a reel of wishes, with a gorgeous tags saying “If I had a hundred wishes I would give them all to you!”






















Or how about a cute muslin bag embellished with the words Make a Wish' and embellished with a rhinestone sparkle. Just fill with five sugared almonds to symbolise the five sacred wedding wishes: health, happiness, wealth, fertility and longevity.





















Place Setting
Use this hand aged, vintage style tag as an alternative place setting, just write your guest name on the back and dangle from a favour or wine glass.

Alternative Guest Book
These beautiful handmade wish cards are a fantastic alternative to the traditional guest book.

A selection of 50 wishes from the wedding guests can select a wish they want to bestowe upon the happy couple. They then write a sentiment on back of the card as a wonderful keepsake for the Bride and Groom.
These one word wish cards can be created in any colour you want and can be embellished if required e.g. with a vintage treasure, some pearls, a butterfly, an initial monogram anything that that will compliment your wedding theme.
Wishes can include...
Love
Laughter
Passion
Trust
Fun
Cuddles
Patience
Devotion
Tenderness
Health
Wealth
Harmony
Friendship
Joy
Peace
Happiness























What do you wish for???
