New Year, new wedding bouquet photos.

 Happy New Year!
It's all a blur since I last posted in September, we've had a lot going on, but not necessarily for the good. Since I intend to keep my blog upbeat I won't go there... besides it's a new year, full of hope, dreams, love and the chance to make new memories.
My wish is that 2017 is a better year for me, my family, friends and you, my dear reader.

I hope you don't mind if I share something I'm quite proud of.
My Etsy shop hit a major milestone... 10k sales! since opening (in 2008)! That's a lot of happy customers! It's hard to believe and a little shocking, but then, I've put a lot of hard work into my venture.
 Of course I couldn't do it without the support of many people- too many to mention individually, but I must mention my teammates on Etsy- particularly my friends on the Potti Team, and Twitter   who have been so helpful in many ways.
 I mainly give credit to my incredibly supportive husband, who keeps taking on more and more. Thank you Dear! for helping me build my dreams, I'd be lost without you. I know this wasn't what you envisioned when you married me (this year will be 33) years ago, and I love you all the more for it! You're the best partner I could ever have! Thank you!

The Pantone wedding colours for 2017 are out! You can see them here at  Wedding Ideas Mag (btw-I especially love the Island Paradise colour!)

Here are a couple of wedding bouquet photos with my charms from happy brides! I'll add more throughout the year :)
Thank you Samantha! for sharing your bouquet and charm picture.

Wedding bouquet charm photos from customers

As the frantic summer wedding season winds down,  I'm taking a look back at the year so far, what worked well, restocking my supplies, ordering new colours and developing new design ideas for next year.
 With my husband's assistance, I am now stocking 2-sided frames and also photo lapel pins in my Etsy shop. I've been working on my photos & added new options to many of my charms, like adding my photo service as an option as they make their purchase. This has saved a lot of time and conversations, making it a smoother purchasing experience for my customers. I still ship most of my charms the next business day, in order to get them to my customers as soon as possible and have managed to keep my shipping prices low.  I also started offering  Expresspost shipping, which still takes a week, but has tracking.  Although it's pricey, I don't make a dime on Expresspost, and it means a 1/2 hour drive to town to our main post office, but my customers appreciate that service & knowing their charms will arrive in time.
Unfortunately the cost of my supplies has gone up, and I will be reviewing my prices as the year winds down. It's not something I like to do, however it's necessary, so now's a good time to get them as I will be increasing the price of my charms in the future.

 Some of the stories behind the photos have been so touching.
I just love the feedback and notes I get from my customers and as a bonus getting wedding bouquet photos too once in a while!
Here's a few photos I can  post - Thank you ladies for letting me share your pictures.

Wedding bouquet photo charms. What my customers say...







 Photos from my brides 












Sarah, Brittany, Chelsea, Annabell and Dora were kind enough to share their photos with me.
Thank you and congratulations Ladies!





My charms look so much better with a photo in them.
 I've used an old photo of myself to model some of my memory charms. 



I thought I'd share some recent reviews from my customers.
  I've been making these memory charms for brides, but have found that they also make priceless gifts for: family reunions, Valentines, Christmas, birthdays, and more. 

 Here's what brides say about my wedding bouquet charms.

a very special part of my wedding day, for my grandmother and I were very close and wished for this wedding to happen for so long. Not only are her dreams coming true but mine will too. Although she will not be physically present, her memory and her photo will walk me down the aisle. The seller was so helpful and prompt!







Nov 16/13
I love them! They are going to look great attached to my bouquet! Thanks so much!





I have many colour options, and love custom orders!


Nov 15/13
Shipped promptly. Product as shows. Love the color blue of this charm!






Nov 8/13
I always dreamed of my grandparents walking me down the aisle, but they passed a while back. With these charms I was able to hold them close to me and it was like they were still walking me down the aisle. They worked absolutely perfect and the color of the bead matched my bridesmaids' jewelry EXACTLY. I couldn't have been more happy with these charms! Thank you so much!




A lovely DIY project, or I can do the photo/s for you 


Nov 5/13
Beautiful job, even nicer than the photos. Thank you so much.






Oct 22/13
Very beautiful, timeless, and vintage. A Very great addition to my wedding details. Not Very big, but it is just what I was looking for. Now my grandfathers can both walk me down the aisle along with my father.




Oct 13/13
A little way to remember someone special.

I loved that it was exactly as described and for a minimal fee, the photos were placed for me. Correspondence was prompt and I am thrilled with the charms. I have been showing them off :)

Filigree heart lockets, with a pearl or crystal, and I've got a
great selection of other colour beads just ask.
 I love custom orders!






Oct 4/13
Just what I was looking for. Affordable, simple yet beautiful.






Sept 29/13
So adorable. Worked great for my bouquet and husband's boutonnière. Perfect size. Great quality.

I used this to add a charm of my sister who passed away to my wedding bouquet. It shipped quickly and is exactly as pictured. The image was easy to install and attach to my bouquet.
