Memories to Heirlooms |
Ginny's husband Tom must have kept every tie he ever owned because she gave me a 10 gallon tub full after giving many away! As I talked to Ginny, I understood why. This is what we wrote for his grandchildren to go in the Story Starter for each of their pillows: "Each night, before bed, Granddad would lay out what he would wear the next day. There was always a white shirt and dark pants, but then came the tie. The tie is where he showed his style, sense of humor, or even celebrate the season! He wore one from his vast collection every day as he worked to support his family." DesignGinny chose a design, and then we worked together to find 5 or 6 ties for each pillow. We designed a pillow for each of the 5 granddaughters and one for Ginny. Ties built out from a center monogram and a tie border for the zipper on the back. Finished HeirloomsWe used his nature ties as much as possible to represent what a sportsman he was. One More ThingI was able to make ornaments for all of his descendants out of some of his fantastic collection!
Have a tub of ties you would like made into heirlooms? Contact me and we can talk about it.
