When my friend had a western wedding, I was not enthused (not my personal taste) so she had to take some ribbing from me---well, on the day of the wedding, she made me a plate full of those "no bake chocolate cookies" ( the ones you do on the stove top with chocolate, peanut butter & oatmeal)--and on top she had a note that said:

Some "Cow Pies" From the Bride

I howled! I guess SHE told ME! ha.ha.
Anyway--an idea: her mom made the ring bearer's pillow from two hankerchieves sewn together and stuffed with filling. The rings were tied onto it with binder twine. It was pretty cute.
