So, what's everyone doing with their dress??

Trashing it? preserving it? selling it?

Re: So, what's everyone doing with their dress??

LOL...Im torn... I already have one wedding dress preserved and can't sell it (from an old engagement 10 years ago)....I don't think I want to do the same thing and have 2! So, I'm thinking of having it made into a christening outfit (providing I get preggo in the next year or so)... if not maybe I'll preserve it, but how long can you wait?

I don't know. I know I don't want to sell it, but I don't know if I want to spend the $ to preserve it. It's hanging in my old bedroom with all my indecision

Re: So, what's everyone doing with their dress??

I'm donating mine to military brides that can't afford to purchase a dress. I can't imagine trashing it; it's too beautiful. I can't imagine letting it sit in my closet; I want someone else to feel as special in it as I did. There won't be anymore children; so no Baptism outift.....donating is the best thing I can think of. Although, right now, I'm not ready to part with it.

I'm not a military bride but you know I've been eyeing your dress. If for whatever reason you can't give it away I'd be more than willing to take it off your hands!!

And I would put it to good use!!
