I spent a few pennies on my wedding dress and I designed it so I really don't want to sell it. It's a princess dress so it takes up quote a bit of room. I was wondering if anyone knew what I could do with it? Can u get it made into something else or preserved like you can flowers? Thanks in advance :) xx

Mine was dry cleaned and boxed up with non acid tissue paper. The box is a wedding dress box with a viewing window so no need to get it out of the box.

I've got a super large box with acid free tissue paper for mine, my girls are desperate for it when they get married so reluctant to sell it, they will most likely not want it when it comes to them getting hitched though.

I'm having mine put in a window frame and so will be folded and then put on the wall. I know it will be expensive but I love my dress and don't want it just gathering dust in the cupboard! X
I still need to do something with my dress, it's stuck in its bag in a cupboard (I feel quite sad that it's stuck there). X

I'm going to either dye my dress or get one that can be worn more than once. I don't like the thought of wearing something only once! Good excuse to wear your wedding dress more than once!!! x

^^^^ like velcro, mine is still in the bag, and not been cleaned yet. I won't be getting it cut up for anything like christenings (love my dress, plus we're not religious/church goers). So I guess I probably won't do anything with it, just get it cleaned and keep it.

I thought about dying mine for my graduation ball but the shop said sometimes they do not dye properly and the stitching won't take the colour.

I need to get mine dry cleaned, I was standing in a flower bed for some of the pictures so the train is quite grubby underneath!

I know what I shall not be doing with it and that is trashing it.

I love the trash the dress shoots, particularly beach/sea ones, but not sure I could do it myself!

I had briefly thought about buying a really cheap dress off the bay or a China one just to do a trash the dress shoot. But alas I'm too tight to do that!

Lol, it's so true though. I thought it was a good idea, if you're willing to spend a little.

I could never trash my dress!
I've been looking at a charity who turn them into gowns for angel babies, but a big selfish part of me wants to keep the dress. It's hanging in the spare bedroom in the dress bag, uncleaned.
I think I'll end up having it cleaned and stored though, and donate the flower girl dress that didn't get used as I ordered 2 sizes for one of the girls incase she did another growth spurt.
