As the saying goes…Something borrowed, Something blue; Something old, Something new; And a sixpence for her shoe! This handmade Bridal Charm is a unique alternative to a bride wearing a sixpence in her shoe.
Each charm is handmade using a locally grown and pressed Forget-Me-Not flower together with a silver sixpence and attached to a silver coloured clasp, making it easy to attach to a bouquet, garter or shoe strap.
Historically, Forget-Me-Nots symbolise remembrance not only associated with love, but for those we've lost. Forget-Me-Nots also symbolise protection and luck, and it's believed that they have the power to protect.
Traditionally, a silver sixpence represents luck and prosperity in marriage and was something traditionally gifted to the bride on her wedding day. It is custom to slip the silver sixpence into the bride's heel before she is walked down the aisle, though in recent years many brides choose to wear the sixpence in a more practical place like off a shoe strap, bouquet or garter.
