My personal suggestion is to find an 8 x 10" picture frame. Find a nice lace edging that you can do. Make the edging to fit inside the frame and take a photo of them at their wedding and mount that in the frame inside the lace edging. Everyone will get photos of their wedding but I bet no one else will mount it in hand made lace. If it's under glass the edging won't need special attention. If you can actually attend the wedding you personally can take the photo (even more personal) and if it's digital you can have it printed up right away at a local drug store and mount it the same day (or the day after) and give it to them. Have a lovely time. How nice that they found each other. bobbi On Sat, 24 Jan 2009 09:16:21 +0200 Sister Claire <[email protected]> writes: > A couple I don't know very well, but for whom I'd like to do > something > special, are getting married.
