I found this idea while browsing through some favorite blogs and thought it was such a great idea I absolutely HAD to share! Not only would this idea be very inexpensive but it would be very green and a great way for guests to remember your wedding for years to come.
Materials:
White card stock
Small terra-cotta pot
Seeds of your choice
Seed Packet Design
Spray paint
Ribbon
Double sided tape
Scissors/Paper Cutter
Instructions
1. Create your Seed Packet Design
2. Once the packet is finished print it on a white card stock, but any color works also. Cut it out.
3. Fold the packet up and use double sided tape to seal the edges. Leave the top open to put seeds inside. Once the seeds are inserted seal the top edge so those seeds can’t fall out.
4. On a covered surface spray paint the terra cotta pot, upside down, whichever color you choose. Let dry for 30 minutes. Set the pot right side up and spray the top and inside as well. Let dry for another 30 minutes.
5. Once everything is dry, you can wrap a ribbon around the pot for decoration.
6. Let your friends and family watch their new flowers grow!
The beauty of this favor is how many ways there are to customize it. You could put seeds in for the flowers that are used at the wedding or any flower that holds particular significance for your relationship. You can also decorate the pot in any way that correlates with your wedding.
