Peter completed the wedding arch frame this morning. It is sitting out on the deck being tested by light breezes in this picture. It has passed the tests we could think of to test how well it will stand in place. It definitely will NOT BE OKAY to have kids climbing on.
K A P U!
Should be easy to setup and take down. Yay!
We put it together here so if it had any problems we could correct them here and now instead at the wedding venue.
Isn’t it amazing what parents will do to make their children feel special? Love and family are truly the most important parts of life, aren’t they? Special days for special people.
Here is my macrame office with a view. See how the branch wood is hung on the window curtain rod using a motorcycle tie-down strap on each end? These work out great for letting me easily raise it up as things progress.
After attaching the cords, the longer ones on both sides have to be wound around my fist and then rubber-banded to make them manageable. The shorter lengths in the middle, are able to remain full length without causing any hardship as I do the knots. The knot-tying begins and there are many times that I asked myself that silly question. “What was I thinking?”
Over a period of 20 days, a custom macrame wedding arch is completed. Wishes for true love for our children crossed this Mother’s mind during the creation of this wedding arch gift.
