Unique Packaging Ideas for Your Wedding Favors
The packaging you choose for your wedding favors is just as important as the favors themselves. You packaging can also help to personalize your favors and coordinate them to your wedding colors and theme. And with many different choices available it is nice to look for something unique and different for your wrapping your wedding favors.
The traditional style of packaging is small card boxes. These days you can find them in all shapes and sizes and in a wide range of patterns and common wedding colors. But given that these are widely available they do not make for very unique packaging. If you want card boxes then why not make your own? Check out free templates online, in your local craft store and even consider investing in a die cutting machine such as Sizzix where you can purchase box dies in a range of great styles and which make cutting your boxes a breeze.
Small aluminium tins are a recent idea for wedding favor packaging. But avoid the round ones and instead look for tins which are square, rectangular or even heart shaped. Many retailers also sell coordinating shaped labels which you can run through your printer to personalize your wedding favors.
Fabric bags are nice for a wide range of different favors and making your own is very easy. Choose quilting weight cottons or linens and sew some simple bags using a pattern (check online as there are plenty of free to download patterns). This is a great choice for your wedding favors as it gives you complete control over the colors, patterns and style as well as size, which for some types of favour it can be difficult or expensive to find bags just the right size.
Ordinary paper bags can be easily personalized by using rubber stamps to add pretty graphics or words in coordinating colored inks. You can also order custom monogram stamps to really personalize your wedding favors. To close paper bags try folding the top over about 1 inch, cut some horizontal slots across the top and thread some ribbon through.
Other unique packaging ideas include looking for miniature whicker baskets, vintage tea or coffee cups for tea or coffee wedding favors, small terracotta plant pots, mini watering cans and buckets, and plastic boxes in themed shapes like stars, flowers or animals.
