Why Make Sashes

Making our own items

Make Sashes?  Beau Events, uniquely, makes its own sashes, swags, table runners and other bespoke items

All of our sashes and coordinating items are hand-made by us from our unique range of fabrics and colours.

Why make sashes and coordinating table dressings?

Simply because the bought in, mostly imported, ready-made stock that our competitors use suffers from three main drawbacks:

  • Only ‘standard’ fabrics and colours are available
  • Coordinating items, e.g. table runners (if available) do not actually match the colour of the sashes
  • Customised items, e.g. longer table runners for a Top Table, are not available

How do we know this?

  • We found that when we bought ready-made (typically Chinese) samples, the table runners, sashes and overlays which were supposed to match each other were all different shades - nothing matched satisfactorily
  • The ready-made items of different types (sashes, runners etc.) came from different rolls of fabric, and possibly were even made in different factories
  • There was no option for custom size items
  • There was no option for a wider variety of fabrics and colours

Our view is that if we were not happy with this then our clients would not be either, so we decided that we could provide a better service if we made the items ourselves.
