What was the best bridal shower favor you received
My sister is getting married and she is the last to go. We have done some great gifts and really want her favor to be just as creative. Any ideas...?BTW - I loved my shower favor ... I love tea so my sisters put together tea caddys with a potpori tea bag that had personalized tea labels.

My sister did something similar for me, but with coffee. I think it's the best favor I ever got. I loved the silver plated coffee scoop!Another cute favor was a personalized chap- stick - but again the person loved chapstick, and was always putting it on, so whenever I used the chapstick - I thought of her.
Can you think of anything that your sister does or something she loves that can be incorporated into a favor?

I also liked my own favor from my shower.My Bridal Party put together 2 bamboo stick in a little glass vase. They used rocks and little shells (my shower was a beach theme). I love it and everyone is still raving about what a great favor and how much they have grown.

My favorite was bath crystals in a nice glass jar. I took one home as a decorative item for my bathroom and the other i used.

For my sister we did a bar of soap, a body puff, and a rubber duck that said from So and So's shower to yours.Actually that was her baby shower for her wedding we did a laddle,and splatula tied together with a wash cloth. We got all the supplies at a dollar store and didnt pay for than 3 or 4 bucks each.

I love coffee....so my BM bought really pretty coffee mugs that were tall and within my color theme and put a small bag of Dunkin Donuts coffee in each one and wrapped them up in tulle. They also make chocolate spoons to be used in the coffee. There was a cute saying attached.

They did a candle for my shower, which I thought was good. People always like to burn a candle. They got Wedding Day scent from Yankee Candle and had them wrapped and a personalized label.I've also gotten magnets, which I like since I use them all the time.

Mine shower had an asian them....being it was in an asian type restaurant. My girls got chinese take out boxes and had personalized fortune cookies made. So all the fortunes where wishes for my DH and I. Then they wrapped them all with ribbons with our names and in our colors (pink and grey) and stuck personalized chopsticks in them.They were a hit....and different! We are still eating the fortune cookies!

I loved mine. My Mom and neice got pretty little tea cups and put tea lights in them. They wrapped them in tulle and tied them with the ribbons that had our names and dates on them, dried flowers and two gold rings.

I really loved the favors my sisters and mom did for my shower...they were candles shaped like a wedding cake...they wrapped them and tied them with ribbons to coordinate with my wedding colors...red and ivory.

I received a ice cream scooper from pampered chef with chocolates(with brides name ingraved in choc.). Thought it was really cute.At my shower, my mom gave the guest potted plants with an inscription on the pot as a keepsake after the plant dies. Everyone raved about it.

Re: What was the best bridal shower favor you received
i never recieved a good one but i know my co-bm and i gave a great one out. we knew we wanted a tea party so we made the favors into a tea kit. each guest left with a mini tea cup and saucer, 3 mini milano cookies, 2 round tea bags, and 3 heart shaped candies. cookies, tea bags, and candy were individually encased in a parchment envelope that i sewed up w different colored theads. all wrapped nicely, of course. it looked really nice and everyone loved them! i know, i know.. it's so tsk tsk when someone brags about themselves but i swear they were really nice
