♦ DESCRIPTION
This high quality, off white wedding garter set features a keepsake garter with a unique floral Alencon lace applique (3 3/4" x 7 3/4") embellished with elegant glass pearls. A soft stretch lace trim is carefully sewn on with off white thread by hand. Then, layers of soft ivory tulle are hand sewn unto the back of the lace applique for comfort and to enhance the overall color.
The tossing garter is included and has a small lace applique (2" x 3 1/4") embellished with one glass pearl. The stretch lace used in the first picture is sold out, but the one used in the second picture is available and measures 7/8" in width. All stretch lace choices are soft, comfortable, and stretchy.
You can choose the color of the pearls. Please leave me a note when you checkout as to which color you would like, or if you would like rhinestones instead of pearls, or if you prefer plain lace without anything on it.
(The available pearl colors are white/off white, light ivory, ivory, nude, champagne, golden champagne, peach, toffee, gold, copper, brownish silver, silver, pewter, pink off white, light pink, peachy pink, medium pink, hot pink, dark rosy mauve, raspberry/wine, red, orange, lime green, mint green, sage green, old willow, forest green, teal, turquoise, light blue, aqua, dark aqua, navy blue, antique blue, purple, light purple. Please see picture 5.)
The whole set includes:
- Keepsake Garter
- Tossing Garter
- Safety Pins
- Hollywood Fashion Tape
*Please remember to use the fashion tape included in the box even if the garters fit perfectly at first because due to the force of gravity, things like to travel down especially as the leg becomes thinner going down. You can use it just for the keepsake garter, or chop it in half and use it for both garters. :)
*** The invoice will not be included in the package unless you request it to. So if you are purchasing a gift, or just want to save paper, I got you covered. ***
♦ CONSTRUCTION STYLE
(see picture 3)
- Style A) both garters are NOT backed with any tulle
- Style B) both garters are backed with layers of soft ivory tulle.
***For monograms, it is an extra $15 for one monogram, and $22 for two. If you would like to order monograms, please send me an additional message, so I can send you a link to purchase the add-on.
In the past, all of my Alencon lace garters sets were made with style B construction. The price difference is due to the amount of time it takes me to carefully sew and trim the tulle. I recommend getting style B because without the tulle, the back of the Alencon lace applique is a little uncomfortable and gritty. Also, the tulle makes the whole garter set have a nice warm, off white color. If your skin is very sensitive, I also offer crushed tulle which feels like soft cotton. Style A is perfect for those who have tight budgets, don't mind the discomfort, or are planning to sew on their own backing.
The monogram is machine embroidered with special embroidery thread. You may choose to have your own custom monogram on the keepsake garter, tossing garter, or both garters. You may also choose what color you would like the embroidery to be in.
♦ SIZE (PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!)
I will need your thigh measurement/circumference (aka. size) in order to make your garter set fit perfectly. To measure your thigh:
1) Please pick a place where you plan to wear the keepsake garter (preferably 4 inches above the knee)
2) Wrap a soft tape measure around your thigh. Round your measurement to the nearest ½ inch.
3) Please give me your exact measurement, and DO NOT TAKE ANY INCHES OFF.
I will take a few inches off of the measurement you give me to make sure the fit is just right. The tossing garter will be made a few inches smaller than the keepsake garter because it will be worn a few inches below.
♦ STRETCH LACE BAND STYLE
PLEASE leave me a note when you checkout about which stretch lace band style you would like me to make your garter set with (see picture 4). If you don't leave me a note, I will be using style #2.
♦ PRODUCTION TIME
As of now, most orders are finished and shipped within 7 days. I will be using USPS first class mail, which takes 2 to 5 days to reach your residence. If you need it within a week, please send me a message, and we will need to upgrade your shipping.
