D.I.Y Sand Dollar Magnets [Wedding Favors]

                               

One of my most favorite people in the WHOLE WORLD had expressed to me (a few weeks ago), how important it is to her that her guests use utilize her wedding favors: “I don’t want my favors to be collecting dust…” Well I honestly couldn’t agree more.

Her solution was a magnet that represented not only the wedding’s theme but her personality. If you were good friends with ”one of my most favorite people”, you would know that she LOVES magnets! Thus began the search of the personalized sand dollar magnet!

I did some digging and found out that her solution could become a DIY project, making her favors much more special. From what I can tell it is simple, all you need is:

  • Sand Dollars
  • Super Glue
  • Organza Bags
  • Favor Tags

All these materials can be found at your average arts and crafts store like Michael’s. OH, and they make GREAT escort cards too!

DIY Project: Custom Seed Packs

DIY Project: Custom Seed Packs

In today’s economy (I’m so tired of saying that!), we ALL need to find ways that will allow us to save money while still being able to throw an unforgettable event (wedding). Although I am not talented when it comes to hand crafts this one seems easy enough to attempt. Not only is it easy but, custom seed packets are unique, classy and will be that wedding favor that does NOT collect dust. It is the gift that keeps on giving and growing.

Whimsical Rating: 10/10! To plant a seed that will grow, symbolizing the journey of your love (and marriage), is soooo… cute! If you choose to do this, it’ll not only save YOU money but will have your guests going…”Awwww, thank you!” 

Here is the link to the tutorial. ENJOY!
