I have been looking online for toss garter ideas for awhile now. I wanted something simple and narrower than my actual garter. I wanted the real garter and the toss garter to match somewhat, and I also wanted to incorporate my "something blue" if possible.

My inspiration for a basic toss garter |
Last night, I was cruising through the dollar store to pick up a few things when I spotted the perfect item to use for my toss garter. It looks like many of the toss garters I have seen online as part of bridal garter sets. Of course I had to add my own little DIY touch to it by including a turquoise blue hand-stitched label on the inside.

I didn't want you to judge, so I saved this piece of information for last: guess what I used for my toss garter? A baby headband! The baby headband even came with two little matching hair clips. Surprisingly, it fits my leg perfectly. For the two garters together, I have spent around $5. I love being a frugal bride.
haha how clever!! Who would have guessed??
