Favors for my shower
We go to this girl for everything from invitations to centerpieces to favors - and we just can't seem to find a favor that we like.
We don't want anything babyish. The only favor we agreed on was a glass wine bucket with hand painted flowers - and unfortunately the company doesn't have the amount that we need.
Can you guys think of anything we can give (and maybe post pics) We don't want candles since I gave them out for my wedding favors.
Price really isn't an issue. I think my mom would go up to about 15 a favor. THANKS for any input at all!!!! I am so bad at searching for this kind of stuff!

Re: Favors for my shower
what about Chinese boxes filled with personalized candy and a favor tag on the top with your name on it and the shower date.

Re: Favors for my shower
Not sure if this is the route you want to go but for an idea:
Cookies in a decorative box
Floral Theme
Gourmet Cookie Favors
Each beautifully decorated 2 ounce box comes packed with delicious tea cookies from TGG Gourmet, and personalized with your choice of ribbons AND gift card with your message.
Favor message can be up to 4 sentences plus names & date.
Our web name appears in smallest fine print at bottom of gift card.

Re: Favors for my shower
Well my mom is getting cookies (in the shape of rocking horses bc that is the theme) and that will go around the table.
She really wants something that people can sort of display - whether it's a nice jewlery box (which I don't want) - or a pretty vase - maybe a nice dish or something like that.
Does that make sense?
I'm going to check out that website Ang! Thanks!!

OOOhhh - love the rocking horse cookie idea. I totally see where you are going. Maybe you can check out the Lenox and Mikasa websites? They might have something cute that the invite woman can help you with. If I see something I'll post right away.

Re: Favors for my shower
We gave out mugs we designed ourselves. They were approx $2 a piece.
It think the web site was discountmugs.com or something like that.
ETA: I did a similar thing for a friend's bridal shower with coffee and everyone loved it - we are all still using the mugs

They were at every setting - remember - in the cello - the tea bags - with the coffee - with the heart coffee scooper. I can see if she has any extras.
