Trial favors
Favors are something I have been thinking about lately b/c I hate them! I have been to so many weddings where the bride and groom spend so much money on things that we all either throw away or toss in a drawer b/c we are ashamed to throw them away! So we did some shopping around and I came up with these. I found small terra cota pots at Hobby Lobby for 38 cents, spray painted them, attached opposing color ribbons in our colors (20 cents for 5 yards), and placed some annuals in them (less than 30 cents each). Hopefully people will feel super guilty about throwing away a plant! Plus I'm pretty crafty and don't mind the time they take.

That is a great idea!  I love it...I also hate the favors because they seem like such a waste and nobody ever uses them! Atleast this way maybe people will use them...and love them.

Pretty and eco friendly!
I might just do the same except i'm thinking of candles. Was looking for holders for them and i think if i can find smaller terracotta pots, it can make an interesting candle holder. Hmm... :)

OOOh.. excellent Idea. I'm thinking about stealing it...and going one step further. Perhaps turning the pots into centerpieces somehow. (I'm having an outdoor wedding...dirt works!)
