June Wedding Keepsake
11. Glue three to four tiny silk flowers near the top half of the photograph. Tie a bow with the silver ribbon, and glue it near the side of your flowers.
12. Underneath the photo, carefully print or write the wedding date. Add a tiny design underneath to give it a more “formal” look. Allow to dry..
13. This final step will vary depending on the amount of silver dollars you have chosen. Since I used twenty-five, I placed them in stacks of five, and tied each into little bundles using the silver ribbon, tying a tiny bow on top to finish.
14. Place your silver dollar bundles inside. You can place some jewelers’ cotton (cut to fit), inside the box to pad the bottom and keep the coins from sliding around inside.
And now you are finished! This gift is something your daughter, sister, best friend, or aunt will enjoy for years to come and will look very nice gracing a bedroom nightstand or hallway tabletop.
