I'm allergic to my fake flowers -_-

Shannon Giraffes., on January 15, 2014 at 10:18 AM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 6

I've always had allergic reactions to weird things. I can't use normal laundry detergent, and finding a good body wash can be awful. I had this weird rash break out on my hand last week. I freaked out, of course, because my wedding is next Saturday and I will be taking hand pictures...it wasn't awful, but to a bride-to-be it was just unsightly! I finally narrowed down the culprit--my fake calla lilies!!!!! The rash is worse now, and on the other hand, but we re-did my flowers yesterday. They are now done and way cuter than before.

I also did my card box last night. Please excuse the bad lighting

All I have left is finishing my hot cocoa cone favors...I'm waiting on the rest of the bags to come in, hopefully by tomorrow

Share your DIY's with me?

    Are they real touch? If so, it's probably a latex allergy. At least you got it figured out!!!

    I feel your pain!! Glad you found out before the wedding day. Benadryl cream is my bff, it goes everywhere with me. I have the same problem with body wash, laundry soap, face soap, lotions and a new one that I just discovered acrylic which is in most of my sweaters.

    It is a good thing you found out before your wedding day. Your bouquets and card box look great. I like how the ribbon on the bouquets matches the stories on your box. Try to enjoy these next few days!

    Your post cracked me up. You are so positive. I'd be having serious anger issues. I'm glad they turned out cuter and I hope your hands clear up quickly.

    Oh my god. I was just the maid of honor in my best friend's wedding on Saturday and she had these exact same flowers as her bridesmaid bouquets. I've been going nuts trying to figure out what has caused the severe allergic reaction on my fingers. My only allergy is to nickel.
