Vintage Clothing Blog | Vintage Wedding Dresses | Salvage Life

A week or so ago I went to a Bridal Shower for my dear friend Amanda. It was a lingerie shower and I know that she loves vintage, so I made her this special gift. I took a navy blue vintage slip and added thin roping around the bust, an anchor patch to the center and red and white striped ribbon to the back. I found a little white dolls trunk and added some small vintage travel stickers. In a stack of vintage photographs was a photo of a woman sailing on a boat probably from the 1940's. I used it for a card and printed this message on the back:

"Marriage is an adventure, so pack your bags and get ready to sail away!"







Here are some lovely pictures I took at the shower hosted by my friend Janelle. I believe much of the lovely decor traveled with Amanda's "vintage extraordinaire" Mother from Arizona. Thank you for a beautiful afternoon!
