I didn't buy my bridal tulle from John Lewis just the appliques which they had in a few different tones of white. I found my tulle at a local fabric store. Best of luck with your veil :) Twirlybirdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17206838183499658069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818938215647673566.post-17904631118166382932015-11-14T10:58:40.330+02:002015-11-14T10:58:40.330+02:00Thanks so much for this!

The only place I've been able to find any reasonable ones is Etsy but I'll like to make it myself.<br />Did John Lewis have dark ivory or champagne bridal illusion tulle?Damyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445487388093740860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1818938215647673566.post-6428048639245041372015-01-21T15:39:44.892+02:002015-01-21T15:39:44.892+02:00Hey!

Mine's not until June so I still have some time to faff with it.

I left it plain - no appliques - but that's just worked for my dress and the look I was going for. I used kirby grips by both my ears and a few shoved in at the top/back. I had a simple, loose hairstyle with a braid 'crown' so the kirby grips went into those. I didn't feel as though it was too loose or liable to slip off - even when the wind blew it straight up in the air!<br /><br />Best of luck with the final prep! Enjoy the big day, it's amazing, and I'm sure you'll have a blast!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
