Custom Garter Giveaway

If you're a Daily Candy subscriber, then you may have heard of Julianne Smith's garters already. She has a whole line of beautifully sassy garters, and will even custom create one for you. And she's giving away one of her pieces to one Snippet & Ink reader!





Just head over to her website and take a look at the different options (if you can't see the images, you can download the PDF catalog at the bottom of the "Shop" page). Then come back here and leave a comment with your favorite garter. You have until Thursday at midnight to enter, and I will announce the randomly selected winner on Friday morning.

I love # 308. The black and white polka dots are right up my alley, and the pink gives it some spunk!

I like 200, 202, and 300...I think there's a theme with the blue and white and polka dots. Pretty, yet simple and tasteful. What a great website!

the traditional garters are very classy! my wedding dress has a pinkish tint to it so i'd love one that's a light green, blush, and ivory. another option would be my school colors...gold and black!

My favorite is #314--there's the "something blue" I still needed!

They are all so cute but my heart is with #303... what can I say? I guess I am a traditional girl at heart after all...

I love style #208, the white grosgrain with sage and white polka dot grosgrain stripe and brown satin stripe.

My bridesmaids' dresses are green and brown - what a fun way to keep a tradition alive and match my girls!

I'm getting married in Poland, so the patriotic #310 would be the perfect nod to my America home!

I usually give my brides a whimsical garter from their alma mater, but I think style #211, the white grosgrain with blue grosgrain stripe, would work best as a something blue for my best friend!

October 28, 2008 at 12:58 PM

#303 with a custom purple ribbon!

I'll throw away my current "something blue" and replace it with #309. I wish I could wear it every day!

Blogger Jen M said...

Style #303 is adorable and would be such a cute "something blue". My mom was going to give me hers as my "something blue" and "something old" but somehow it disappeared over the years.

October 28, 2008 at 1:15 PM  
Blogger Ashley Billingsley said...

Oh, #205! The perfect surprise for my good-girl exterior! A little animal print to hint to my future hubby what life will be like together! I'd replace the pink with turquoise, though, as a nod to my sorority. Gotta get my girls in somehow, too!

I LOVE style # 300. It's a feminine way to work in "something blue" without being too girly or overdone. It's simple and classy with a splash of color from the blue with white polka dots.

I would love style #308

I LOVE #302, 304, 305. They are all very similar. I love the simplicity. But, I love the touch of blue on #304.

I love so many of them, but I think I would pick one from the traditional section to go with my wedding style. I like number 312

October 28, 2008 at 5:22 PM

I still need something blue to wear on my wedding day, so I had to choose something from that section... I think my favorite was #300 cause i love polka dots!

My favorite would be Style 303. The little bow is just so darling. And it's giving me the something blue I still need!

I love style #312! Why? Because it seriously matches my dress! I'm wearing Carolina Herrera's "Blossom."

October 28, 2008 at 6:42 PM  
Blogger Unknown said...

They are all so pretty and a new take on a traditional element, but my favorite is style #304 because it looks more vintage, which will match my dress the best.

October 28, 2008 at 6:47 PM  
Blogger Aylee Bits said...

Ooh, I love style#304. It would be awesome to be able to check off garter and 'something blue' in my list.

I love #208, the sage green polka dot one. Not only is it super cute, but I also love that it doesn't have ribbons dangling to tickle you throughout the day :)

October 28, 2008 at 7:17 PM

I love #304! It would be the perfect "something blue."

I love #207! All these garters are classy, not tacky, and that one has my favorite color (blue) as well as my bridesmaid dress color (brown). It's perfect!

My favorite are the simple styles, particularly style 005...the brown/blue polka dots give it a simple vintage feel that I love!

I was absolutely against the garter tradition until about five minutes ago-when I discovered Julianne Smith's site! Now I am excited to toss #308 away on the big day!

October 28, 2008 at 10:35 PM  
Blogger Kaitlin Wainwright said...

#308 are in my wedding colours--green has been my favourite colour since i was little, and like angela said, the polka dots and pink add some spunk.

Blogger Jess said...

I love all of the satin ones. Personally, I am a fan of the more simple but beautiful styles for most wedding accessories, and I think style #303 fits that perfectly. Plus, it fits the something blue. I would love to have that one.

October 28, 2008 at 11:29 PM  
Blogger newzHound said...

I never thought I would be able to match my garter to my ceremony decor! Style #208 is my pick. It's a perfect match of sweet and sassy.

I wore a pretty conservative dress and loved that I had animal print underneath. We didn't do a toss, but it was so fun knowing that I hd that sass underneath!

October 29, 2008 at 7:08 AM  
Blogger Sarah said...

This is so hard! The animal prints are awesome! Suprisingly to me though, I think I want something more traditional. I like 209 and 305, they are simple but classic and so pretty!

October 29, 2008 at 7:33 AM

These garters are for the bride who wants to remain classy from head to toe and everything inbetween!!! I love the thought of having "something blue" underneath so that you know it's there but not everyone else has to!!

October 29, 2008 at 11:17 AM

So hard to choose just one favorite! They are all super sweet. I'd pick #314.

#304. I also love the idea of the garter as my "something blue." I just wish there were more options in ivory instead of white (hint, hint!).

October 29, 2008 at 2:06 PM

Cute, cute, cute! I'd go for #302 because the satin looks elegantly sexy!
