Re: Retro wedding favors

I have a better idea.. :)

Since myself and most of my friends are covered in tattoos and very retro/rockabilly, I thought of this

shot glasses with old school flash temp tattoos on them..

:)

Not yer traditional favor BUT original

How much are you looking to spend? www.gotmartini.com has hand painted martini glasses but they are $20 each . I did a froogle search, and found one place that had them for $14, though. I love martinis, so I love this idea!

Re: Retro wedding favors

I saw an idea that I think could apply in a past martha stwear wedding mag...the bride designed a unique logo and had it printed on a glass.

It looked awsome, and when I looked it up, it was totally affordable...depending on the glass, they can be less than 1 dollar each! So maybe you could find clip art of something retro of your choice and have it printed on the glass?

or maybe you could make a design of that classic heart tatoo with your and FI name on it, and the wedding date underneath....that would really cool on a shot glass!

Re: Retro wedding favors

What about something with cherries? They always make me think of the 50's, or what about some retro candy?? You can get bulk candy and wrap them individually... or these Asian Snap Purse
