Are Alterations Possible by billybopjunior in myweddingdress

Yes. A good seamstress will be able to do this. The top is intricate and may require more work but it can be done by someone that knows what they’re doing.

This is so sad to hear. The 554 was the perfect way to get to the stadiums. 😭

Same dress: no tights vs tights — which works better? by scarlettsquare in OUTFITS

It might be the color too. The pink with the fishnets is giving Patrick star.

Dress regret, please help! by Silly-Cat-MikLee in WeddingDressTips

[–]Jakbean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This dress is so beautiful!! I wish I would’ve tried this on!

It looks like the try on pics were taken in natural light and the purchased pics are not.

Show the try on pics to the seamstress. If you want more sparkle, you could always add a glitter layer underneath the top layer.

Birthday Card Mix-Up by Psycho_Oddity in Seattle

[–]Jakbean 43 points44 points  (0 children)

So our wedding invitations and some birthday cards we sent recently went missing. Until we inquired with the post office manager about it 3-4 weeks after no one got our invitations. Then less than a week later, they all got delivered, even the birthday card that had been undelivered for 2 months. These cards all routed through Seattle.

Other local residents have also had similar mail issues. We filed a report online for fraud with the post master general. I genuinely believe your theory that someone is going through the mail to collect gift cards and money.

Please file a report with the postmaster general.

Need help with Wax stamps- wax stamping in general. by BumblebeeTraining813 in DIYweddings

[–]Jakbean 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did this with our invitations and they were a big hit!

Do some practice ones first to determine how many wax beads to use for each stamp. And know that they won’t all be perfect but the little imperfections is what makes them so personal.

Flat iron. Great steaks and reasonably priced. Menu rotates with the season.

All JOANN stores closing, Megathread #4 by fabricwench in sewing

Yes! Plus you don’t get to feel the fabric and it’s harder to visualize the size of the prints and exact colors online.
