New Year's Wedding


I made this cluch for my friend Meghan's wedding. It's the second clutch I made and though it has some flaws, it is way better than the first one I made. The first one was lopsided, had a zipper, and because I didn't use any interfacing for support and the clutch was really floppy. For this one, I measured better so it isn't as lopsided, I use interfacing, but it wasn't enough and the purse still didn't have the support it needed . And since I used a magnetec button this time, stuff kept falling out. I need to use cardboard or something for the support on the inside. Hopefully, the next clutch for the next wedding will work way better.

The wedding was fabulous. I got my hair done up (the first time since 9th grade). It was pretty but there was so much hairspray in my hair that it held even after a night of dancing. I danced with this 5 year-old, Emma Sophia. We had fun, but she wore me out! Later Meghan's mom told me that I was a "dancing slut" (in a good way) because I will dance with anyone (true).

I seriously think it was a best wedding ever. I could be biased since it was the first wedding I have ever been in, but the everyone there was alot of fun. The food was great. There was brie AND cheesecake! And it was New Years. They got a deal with the Holiday Inn close by so people can stay there rather than drive home after a wedding and New Years. So right now I am living it up like a rock star in a king size bed until 4pm when I have to check out.
