So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Flower Girl Dresses for Your Wedding

By John Jones


A flower girl is usually a young family member of the bride or groom between the ages of three and eight years old. She will follow behind the bridesmaids, sometimes before and sometimes behind the maid of honor. As she carries her basket of flower petals she will scatter them along the aisle. You may decide for her to carry a pomander instead of the basket. This is a ball of flowers that have a satin fabric loop to hold on to. These are usually made to match the brides' bouquet, and are becoming quite popular.

This is a very important decision to make. Buying a dress is more practical because you can purchase a the dress online or in local dress shops. Renting on the other hand is cheaper than purchasing a new dress. But after using the dress, you need to return it to the shop. For those who wish to make the dress special, one can choose to have it made by a talented seamstress. Whether buying, renting or making a custom made flower dress, consider the wedding date if there's still time to make the dress and the budget allotted to be sure that the dress will make the cut.Most of the time, children who participate in weddings as flower girls are age three to nine. A small child can grow up quickly in just a short period of time. If you are planning your wedding ten months or a year in advance, pick a dress that has seams that can be let out if needed.

Choose a color that works with the color of the bridesmaid's dresses you have chosen. Consider the color that the bridesmaids have picked out and use the same color for the dress. If the bridesmaids have chosen cheap bridesmaid dresses in several different shades, consider a different shade for the flower girl's dress. Pastels and breezy shades are perfect for little girls.

This is a very important factor to consider. Think about the time of the year you will be having your wedding. Be sure that the dresses that you pick for your entourage is appropriate. The dresses should be comfortable enough. If you will be celebrating your wedding in winter, make sure that the dresses are partnered with fashionable boleros or coverings. Then again, if celebrating the wedding in summer, you can pick a sleeveless flower girl dress.

Another reason why you should consider the time of the year is to make sure that the flowers that will be used in the wedding are available. Be practical. Your flower girls can also use the flowers as an adornment or hair piece. A crown or headband of flowers looks adorable on a little girl. Pick out vivid and colorful flowers for the flower girls. Lilies, sunflowers and dyed daisies are pretty. Be creative and add strands of flowers flowing down the back of the crown, or braid the flowers into the child's hair. You can design the flowers to the barrettes for their hairpiece. It can complement both short and long hair. Moreover, the flower basket that the child will hold must comprise of colorful petals. It will be picturesque to see the child throws these flowers at the ceremony.
