Crafting your own group of unique wedding favors does not mean you have to sacrifice quality. Listed below is a collection of easy-to-do DIY projects that’ll provide your guests with elegant wedding favors.
1 ) Lottery Scratch-off Tickets. With scratch-off lotto tickets, there will be no doubt that each of your guests will use their wedding favors. Simply place your scratch-off ticket into glassine envelopes and affix decorative personalized labels that cleverly read "Lucky in Love". To personalize this favor even more, add to the envelope a penny with your wedding year on it. A perfect DIY wedding favor for any season!
2 ) Forced Bulbs. Take 2 to 3 forced bulbs (eg: paperwhites, amaryllis) and place them inside a drawstring burlap bag or jute bag. Dangle a personalized hang tag that reads "Love Blooms" from the drawstrings. Makes great autumn wedding favors or winter wedding favors!
3 ) Homemade Jam. Share your family recipe for sweet homemade jam by canning them into miniature glass jars. Tie a gingham wedding ribbon around the neck of the jar. Hang a custom label that reads your names and wedding date.
4 ) Chocolate Bars. Perfect for the inner-graphic designer in you. Remove the original paper wrapper and take note of its measurements. Based on these measurements, design a new wrapper using your favorite illustrating software. Print your design onto colored paper. Wrap your new design around the chocolate bars. Use double-sided tape to secure the ends of the paper wrapper.
5 ) Pears. Pears are a delicious fruit that makes a wonderful symbol of your status as the "perfect pair." Create a rubber stamp with your names and date and the phrase "The Perfect Pair." Stamp onto squares of kraft paper or light-weight butcher paper. Wrap around each pear. Present in a rustic wood crate and invite guests to pluck their own pears.
6 ) Homemade Chocolates. Make homemade chocolates using one of the many molds out in the market today. Put some of these sweets in a little translucent bag. Tie a ribbon around the neck of the bag and dangle a tag that reads "Thank You."
7 ) Homemade Cookies. Using a family secret recipe, bake cookies and place them in a small baker’s box. Wrap in red and white baker’s twine and a darling hang tag that reads "Sweet Treats."
8 ) Small Bouquet of Flowers. Place small sprigs of flowers into plastic vials. Wrap several vials together with decorative fabric and tie with a colorful ribbon. Display all together in a wicker basket for the guests’ to help themselves.
9 ) Small Potted Herbs. Small pots of thyme, rosemary and basil make practical wedding favors for a spring wedding or garden theme event. Wrap a colorful ribbon printed with your names and wedding date around the clay pot to personalize the look.
