Once Wed<\/a> is simply precious. Plus, it looks so easy! That is always a BIG plus. I love the little vase on the bags and how there is room for a personalized message from the bride and groom. I think anyway you can make your favors more personalized the better!<\/p>\n![\"paper](\"http:\/\/static.bridalpartytees.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/06\/steps-paper-favors.jpg\")

Materials:<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
\u2022 pliers
\n\u2022 mini artificial flowers – $1.99\/bundle of 18 available at Tinsel Trading Company or your local Michaels
\n\u2022 masking tape
\n\u2022 paper favor bags 3.5? x 2? x 6.75? – $2.99\/16
\navailable at Michaels
\n\u2022 patterned paper of your choice
\n\u2022 white glue – my personal favorite is made by Tombow and is available here.
\n\u2022 solid color cardstock
\n\u2022 paper scissors
\n\u2022 white gel pen – $1.24 available at Create For Less
\n\u2022 mini clothespins – $1.87\/50 available at California Paper Goods<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Instructions<\/strong>
\n1. Using a pair of nice sharp pliers, cut the tops off of 4 or 5 miniature artificial flowers so that they are approximately 1.5? long.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
2. Bundle flowers together and wrap with a small piece of tape. I got this cute plum roll of masking tape
\nhere, but floral tape or any old masking tape will work well for this.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
3. Tape flower bundle down to paper bag, centered and approximately 1? from the bottom<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
4. Using template, trace shape for vase onto backside of the patterned decorative paper and cut out<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
5. Fold under edges approximately 1\/8? and run a bead of glue along both tabs.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
6. Press firmly in place onto bag over flowers. I found it easiest to hold and secure one side for a few seconds and to then press the other side down.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
7. Cut a piece of 8.5? x 11? solid color cardstock into 1? strips. Fold strips in half and using scissors, snip a notch at the folded end to form two paper flags. Write your message onto the flag, fill bag with contents, fold top of bag down 1\/2? onto itself 3 times and clip flag onto the front using a miniature clothespin.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Your cost will vary depending on how many of the supplies you already have on hand, and how many bridesmaids you have, but these favor bags shouldn\u2019t run you more than $10-$15 total.<\/p>\n
