Garters

Ooh didnt even know people made them so can't help there, sorry!

Mine is from la senza, pretty but quite standard so may be a bit lacy/frilly for you? It was £4.50 with a little blue ribbon

Thanks for replying lamby. I'm going to have a look at La Senza. That sounds like good price and at least I'll be able to see what I'm buying before I get it.

Thanks :-)

La Senza have a sale on at the minute! I got my bridal underwear from there which was a bargain at £16!!!!

Aww.. I shall have a look now!

I saw a garter I liked in Hobbycraft of all places!! It was a real garter and a smaller "throw" garter if anyone wants to do the traditional garter throwing thing.

Thanks both of you. Will go and have a look later ?

Snap mine is the same. It was a pretty impulse buy, thought I like, I need so i'll get.

My very favourite ones are from here https://www.libertyinlove.co.uk/lingerie-garters/garters.html

Really beautiful and would be a lovely thing to pass down to the women in your family.

I had a very nice lacy one, classic Victorian antique style. Definitly not frilly.

It had a bow and a small jewel. I thougght it was very classy. I brought it in John Lewis.

When I asked this question Made By Lawrie responded and hers were lovely if you google her site you'll see what I mean. Reasonably priced too.

Hi Cheryl

Hitchers get a 10% discount from me (just ask for the code). The garters I make are usually of the non-fluffy kind! You don't have to have my standard designs though. You can let me know your design ideas/colours and I'll make your garter for you.

I have some inexpensive ones that you can leave as is or add to yourself https://www.3djewellery.co.uk/index_files/Wedding_garters.htm

Thankyou everyone for your replies. I went to la senza tonight and bought one which has a blue stone with a silver heart dangling from it. It is not too frilly and was £5.00 Bargain!!

Hi,

I know this is an older post... but if anyone is looking for garters, I make individual garters in various sizes (to fit all ladies... not just slim legs.

I use vintage lace and various ribbons, charms and trimimngs.

I can make to your own deisgn and size.

Prices atart from £10.... so they don't break the bank

Also, I've just started a giveaway for a vintage lace garter on https://www.facebook.com/extraspecialtouch just become a liker and I will pick a random name when we get to 500 )

Im glad u posted that link i love the je taime one, im off 2 did out my card and order it ? x

Or could extra special touch make one the same but cheaper????

Am I the only one who thinks her thighs may look terrible in a garter? I haven't tried on stockings or garters since I lost weight, but before then my thighs tried to engulf any elesticated band I put around my leg!!!!!

My thighs don't look like they would be much kinder to these things now either...

I feel the same Josie, i've had my garter for a while now and i haven't even unwrapped it as i don't want to see what my tree trunks look like in it, ha ha.

Blinkin nora that libertyinlove stuff is expensive isnt it. Surely someone could recreate that with a bit of fancy lace and somut sparkly.......anyone??!?

Gosh if I sold my garters at libertyinlove prices I'd be a rich lady.

My prices go from £7.99 and I make plain to extra fancy. You can have as much or as little sparkle as you want on any of the garters I make. All colours available, not just blue and they can also be personalised with the new surname of the bride.
