[MUSIC] Hi, everyone in this video. I wanted to show you some great ideas for favors that you can create for your wedding, bridal shower, baby shower birthday party or bachelorette party? A lot of times favors are something that guests don’t really care about or they end up not using. So if you’re going to put the time and money into creating favors for your guests be sure it’s something that they will enjoy or use. I will be showing you a list of eight favored ideas in this video, so stick around to see them all all the items. I’m showing you will use my designs to accompany the product and I will include links to all the products that I use in the comment section below the first item. I want to show you is how to create these great favors using the Eos Lip-balm. These are great for baby showers, bridal showers and bachelorette parties. The Eos lip-balm comes in a variety of colors and flavors. So you can choose the colors that work best for your event. The first thing you want to do is choose a design from our website or from our. Etsy page. Once you have purchased a design that works for you. You can easily download the file and edit an Adobe Acrobat reader. When you open the file in Adobe Reader, you can easily edit. The blue highlighted sections. You can type in the name and event, then save your file and print these print great on 110 pound white matte cardstock. Then you can easily trim using the crop marks provided when trimming. I prefer to use an exacto knife, but scissors will work great, too. You will also need to purchase a one and a half inch circle punch so that you can create an area for the Eos lip-balm to fit. Once you have your cards cut. You can flip your hole punch upside down, so you can easily line up the circle. [MUSIC] When you have all of your cards, ready to go, you can open the lip balm and insert through the hole, then take the lid and close it on top. The next item is my personal favorite. The let love grow tags with miniature succulents. I decided to put these in a teacup, which is just an added touch. But you can use terracotta pots or even cute little plastic pots that come in a variety of colors. I even found cute little metal buckets that you could use and I’ll include the link to them in the comment section below. If you want to try to find teacups on your own, you can try looking at some secondhand stores or even find some on Facebook marketplace. Once you have purchased the let love grow tags from our Etsy shop or website, you can easily follow the included instructions to edit print and trim the tags. I decided to use a 4 inch. Bamboo stick to adhere to the back of the tag. I just simply taped the stick onto the back. Then you can easily place this right into the dirt. Another option for these would be to use them as seating cards, so your guests can easily find their seats or you could place one at each place setting for smaller events. Another great item that’s inexpensive and really up to your creativity is a snack bag or jar. These are super easy and you can either pre. Fill these or have your guests. Fill them! At your event? We have a bunch of great 2 inch and one and a half inch printable favore stickers that you can use in a variety of ways. We have a bunch of great designs that are available and these are easy to edit and print and you can either print these onto a full sheet of sticker paper or use a circle punch to create the sticker or for the two inch circles. You can print them on a sheet of Avery 2 to 8 1 7 Circle sticker template. I’m using a variety of options just to show you the versatility of the stickers I have links below for the brown paper sandwich bags, small Mason jars and the little gift bags for the Mason jars. You could sit out larger jars of candy and have your guests fill the smaller jars with the treats of their choice or you could have them prefilled so guests can just grab and go. Other options are about filled with your favorite coffee beans. Maybe some trail mix or maybe some smores. Anything that goes with your theme is great, and these stickers will work perfectly with any item. My mini champagne labels are perfect for brunch and bubbly, a bridal shower or a bachelorette party. Basically, any event, you know, your guests will enjoy sipping on some champagne when they arrived home. I chose to remove the original label from the bottle and I did this by soaking this in room-temperature water with a little bit of baking soda for about 30 to 40 minutes. I designed these to be used with the Avery. 687 Three labels. Or you can print these to a full sheet of sticker paper than trim to size. These are easily personalized in Adobe Reader. Then all you have to do is print peel-and-stick. Tie a little ribbon on these or add a fun straw for easy. Sipping next is a great favor for a bachelorette party. The Hangover kit or survival kit? These again require some creativity on your end of what you would like to include. You can include personalized items or just some functional items like Advil, mouthwash, gum candies. Maybe even some mini alcohol bottles to get. The party started. So favors don’t have to be saved for the end of your event. You can give your guests. A favor at the beginning here is a great idea for a welcome bag using our editable printable. Welcome tags. You can purchase one of our lovely Welcome tags from our. Etsy, shop or website, then easily edit an Adobe Reader, print and trim. I like to use an exacto knife when trimming, but scissors will work great, too. You can either use a hole punch, so you can thread the tag with some twine or ribbon or simply staple to the bag for a quick and easy solution. Fill any bag with some snacks, treats or overnight essentials then easily tied the lovely tags right to the bag place next to some personalized water bottles. And your set. Your guests will love this extra touch to making your event memorable, and they will really appreciate those late-night snacks after a fun night of partying another favorite trend that I’m loving is giving out your favorite coffee beans or loose tea. You can find some nice rustic bags or just a nice, clear plastic bag for the coffee beans. These favors would be great for a wedding or even a bridal tea for the tea. I found these great lined tea pouches that you can simply adhere a sticker to, or if it’s a pretty loose leaf tea. Maybe display it in one of the small Mason jars. Obviously you can jazz this up with twine or ribbon, but my stickers will work great on any of these options. The last idea is one that is probably the most useful way to spend your favorite budget and one that may be tax-deductible. This is mostly used for weddings but really can be done for any event big or small. This would be the gracious, a meaningful action of making a charitable donation to a cause. That’s important to you or your soon-to-be spouse. After you make your donation to the charity of your choice, you can simply choose one of our lovely.
