Baby Boy's Bubble

This Baby Boy's Bubble is made from Mother's satin wedding gown which featured quite a lot of lace, sequins and seed pearls.  I added just a touch of the lace to the collar of the bubble.  I used some of the seed pearls from Mother's gown to accent the cap's ties.  Mother wanted a little blue color so I used blue silk satin ribbon for the cap's ties.  I embroidered Baby's name and baptism date on the inside of the cap.  Baby was being baptized in August, so short pants were in order. 


 Mother wanted a bow tie so I  used wide white silk ribbon to make the bow tie.  Mother's dress did not have any covered buttons so I used store-bought buttons.  Even a little Boy's Bubble can have a little lace to dress it up.
