Petticoat Slip – Things That You Will Want To Know When Selecting Petticoat Slips

March 9, 2010

If you’re considering purchasing a petticoat slip, there are often quite a few questions which may possibly come to mind. This quick article should answer your questions on petticoat slips.  

How could I make my petticoat slip maintain its shape?
In case your petticoat slip has lost it’s shape and isn’t providing as much shape as before, try to get and use a little spray on starch and ironing each layer flat, using the lowest heat setting.

What textiles are petticoat slips made out of?
Organza and crinoline are the two fabrics regularly used to create petticoat slips. Organza is normally made from hardened silk, however nylon is generally used and less pricey. Crinoline is a harder nylon material that gives more support and form.

Where can I find petticoat slips for sale?
Petticoat slips are not commonly used like they were in the past, and can be hard to find in local shops. The best choice is to go on the internet, where many variety of colors, designs, and sizes can be found.

What type of outfits look best along with a petticoat slip?
A lot of women put on petticoat slips under any skirt or dress that is designed to flow away from below the waist, such as A-line skirts. Pencil skirts or dresses with skirts made to be snug close to the hips and thighs, basically don’t allow enough room to wear a petticoat slip underneath the skirt. Sarees also often incorporate petticoat slips to emphasize the figure of the person. Any skirt which can use a little extra volume will look excellent together with a petticoat slip.

How can I clean my petticoat slip?
The best cleaning technique depends on the fabric. Almost all new petticoats slips are made of nylon, and should be hand washed with a soap made for delicate clothes. old petticoats should be dry cleaned, as they are commonly made from either silk or a combination of cotton and horsehair, which is easily ruined by normal washing.

What other web forums cover information on petticoat slips?  
Getting very specific answers to your questions on the topic of petticoat slips can be nearly impossible.  One spot that I do recommend for petticoat slip “frequently asked questions”, though, is http://petticoat-slip.bidandblog.com .  Inside this forum, you will acquire a tremendous amount of no cost, member-provided answers to common questions.  This website also has realtime auctions for petticoat slips along with a free email service that will email you when a new petticoat slip auction is posted.  Anyhow, that’s my two cents.

Memorable Gift Tips for Wonderful Wedding Attendents

March 9, 2010

Because wedding is like a really great production number, it is safe to announce that no one can handle it alone. The bride and groom will need to enlist the help of their friends and family in order to make their wedding day a very memorable event. The bridal party, which consists of the people whom they hold closest to their heart, is also the wedding attendants in the sense that they make sure each and every step in the entire ceremony pushes through in the smoothest possible way. And because they have sacrificed so much time and effort to be there for the bride and groom, naturally they requirement to be thanked in the best possible way.

Even though it is common for the bride and groom to receive a lot of wedding party gifts during their wedding, they also have to do some giving themselves. Giving groomsmen gifts after the wedding reception is a common practice which signifies the gratitude that the newly married husband and wife feel for the people who are part of the bridal party. And because the ages range fro, toddler to grandparent, planning will involve thinking of thank you attendant gifts for a whole range of individuals who are at in different stages of life. You would definitely want to give them something appropriate, right? The key is to transfer them a unique yet useful item or trinket. It need not be expensive or rare (especially if the bride and groom have a strict or limited budget which they must stick to) but the point is to give them something that expresses heartfelt thanks and sincerity.

For the groomsmen, they will appreciate a nice gift of simple cufflinks. Elegant and charming, cufflinks will carry even the youngest groomsmen into the prime of their manhood. For bridesmaids, it would be a nice surprise for them to receive understated yet stylish pearl necklaces or bracelets. The little ones also promise to have their own surprises as well. Ring bearers will do well to accept smart leather belts of junior-sized neckties, and pretty little flower girls will be delighted with jeweled hair combs or ribboned head bands.

For the rest of the much older members of the wedding party, they will appreciate useful groomsmen gifts that have a personal touch. A photo album, or a personalized mug with their names on it will make morning coffee and picture viewing occasions much brighter. Other great ideas would be miniature clocks, cosmetics for the girls, jewelry boxes, pen sets for the gentlemen and embroidered or personalized handkerchiefs.

How can i get into Wedding Planning?

March 9, 2010

I live in nj close to ny and I really want to try working in wedding planning. I’d love to find a job as an assistant or intern for an event planning firm to get my foot in the door but I have had a hard time finding openings or information. Any ideas, tips, suggestions are welcome. Thank You !!!!

You have to be willing to work for free, at least for a couple of events. Also, ask to help plan a friend’s wedding for free. Then document everything you do – pricing, organization, whatever. Take pictures too. This is how you start building a portfolio and resume in order to get a real job in the future. Every time you meet someone who sells anything even remotely related to weddings, get their business card and stay in touch – this means flowers, dj services, dresses, rental property, you name it.

It would also help to get a degree in business and/or design, etc. as well.

What are the rules for courthouse wedding decorations???????

March 9, 2010

I AM GETTING MARRIED AT A COURTHOUSE AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THEY LET U DECORATE AT ALL??? ITS A WEEKEND WEDDING SO THE COURTROOM WILL NOT BE IN USE.
I LIVE IN HOUSTON, TX AND WE ARE USING THE ACTUAL COURT ROOM.

So asking at Yahoo is getting you answers?

Call the clerk of court office at the actual courthouse where you are getting married and ASK someone who knows.

I don’t know how you would work the dynamics of getting decorations inside a courthouse anyway. What are you planning to do, carry ferns and tulle bows and flower centerpieces from the parking lot to the chamber?

If I wanted more decor than just a bridal bouquet, I would plan my wedding for another venue. But good luck to you!

What are some good wedding decoration ideas that will stand out?

March 9, 2010

My fiance and I are getting married July 26, 2008 and we have most of the planning organized.. My aunt is a wedding coordinator with her own business.. but we are just looking for one kind of decorative thing to stand out… i really didnt want to go with a theme because i would have to match everything together and remember im trying to keep it inexpensive… any ideas on what to go with the horse and carriage decorations… ?

my colors are Pink, Red, and white. its not a big wedding…. but very nice.. we have a horse and carriage built and its white its for when we march down the aisle and take our pics standing on… cant really explain it.. but it will be pretty.. someone gave me the ideas to make it look dreamy, luminous, and romantic with white lights and candles… do anyone else have any ideas…?

it will be greatly appreciated…

dont hestitate to give your input…

If your venue allows open flames, have candles, candles, candles – different heights, colors, square pillars, round pillars, tealights, floating, tapers in crystal candle holders etc…. to add sparkle, you can place them on mirrors of various shapes & sizes – the light reflects and it is gourgeous!

You can accent the tables with fresh or silk rose petals. If using fresh, the best thing to do is keep them on the roses until shortly before the reception – break off the blooms of the roses and sprinkle them on about an hour before the reception (you will probably need to ask a friend to do this,) That will keep the petals looking fresh all evening.

If you are not able to have open flames you can go with battery candles. If you don’t care for the way the battery operated candles work, here’s a trick. …

Buy mid-quality pillar candles of various heights, colors, etc.. – you don’t want to go with low end because they won’t burn nicely and you don’t want to go with high end because they will take forever to burn for this project – Since you have a year, you have plenty of time to prepare for this – burn the pillar candles long enough for the centers to drop down 1.5 to 3 inches – take battery operated tealights and place them down inside – you will have the look of a lit pillar candle without an open flame and you won’t be able to see the battery operated candle. You can experiment – it is lovely.

White lights wrapped in tulle is lovely to. You can use it to wrap columns, to accent tables such as the gift table, place card table, entrances etc…

A very nice touch is to make sure you carry over your decorations into the restrooms – in this case, candles and petals. It’s something that really gets noticed. You can also place courtesy baskets in the restrooms – nail files, tissues, hair spray, lotion, mints etc…. The guests LOVE it!

Best wishes!!

I hand paint wedding favors, how can I start a business?

March 9, 2010

I paint beautiful scenes on small wooden chests in the colors that will blend with the wedding I put the name and date of the couple and use them as wedding favors. I did this for my own wedding and people said that I should do this as a business, how do I get started?
hey, thanks guys..you are the best…all of you that answered. Thanks again.

Advertising is first and foremost. If you have any local papers in the area take out some ads. This may be costly because newspaper space is outrageously high. However if you choose to go that route stick with Sunday editions only and make sure that your ad is placed in the Society Section where the wedding announcements are.
You also may fare well with some of these newspapers that are distributed locally and left in your mailbox or newspaper tube. I’m sure you have something like that in your area, most people do. They contain little human interest stories, ads for local businesses and swap/buy/sell announcements.
Of course you’ll have to make application with the Secretary of State’s Office for your state and inquire about becoming a business and providing information so they can collect their share in sales tax from you.
Get a digital camera, photograph some of your work and include it in your ad. You can probably circumvent all of this by just making a website and having cards made up with your web address that displays your art and provides information to the same. All of this can be done from home. Providing of course you have a computer there.
I gave this serious thought once because I can draw and paint. I thought I’d do portraits and sell them but I just never had the time to really make it a business. Plus….what would I charge for a portrait?
But good luck. Your craft sounds quite nice and I suspect if you do this as a business you’ll fare rather well.

Where can I buy inexpensive wedding dresses online?

March 9, 2010

I’m getting married in 3 weeks and need to find a site that sells inexpensive wedding dresses. Looking to pay no more than $200 so it can’t be one of those super duper custom made ones from China. I might get a Target wedding dress if I can’t find anything else. If all else fails I can always make one myself, but I’d rather not walk down that road.

Oh, and is the David’s Bridal $99 sale worth it? I want something strapless and simple, I’m a size 18. Not looking for anything extravagant.

David’s Bridal $99 sale is well worth it. I tried on 7 dresses and the one I ended liking the best was the sale dress. Go figure. One I bought everything to accessorize I only ended up spending about $200. This saved us a ton of money to spend on the wedding and honeymoon. You may think this is crazy but I’ve heard that Target actually sells wedding gowns now. They are only available online though. Probably worth a glance.
