Beware: If you plan onf wrapping ur own favors...Edited with PICS

Your fingers will be killing youthe next day!!!!!

Ok so last night a good friend of mine and myself went and got all the stuff to wrap my favors for my E-party. We wrapped, ribboned and added the tulle with the Jordans Almonds and a red rose and the name tag to each little box. We didnt plan on doing them all last night I guess we got intot he flow of it and b4 we knew it we had completed all 80 pieces. I will post api tonight so u girls can see out work...lol...
I would have done it last night but it was 2 a. when we finished. Thia morning I woke up and the tips of my fingers are killing me cuz of all the pressing and folding... Wrapping is a lot of work..

Here is what the end result looked like....

i know what u mean ive been doing that for 2 days now,, what a pain,,& if u have nails, your a complete handicap,, LOL

post the pics,,

btw when is you party penny ?

I second that!!!
I got mints for our engagment and wrapped them in tule with a ribbon and lemme tell you SO MUCH WORK and TIME and fingers definitley hurt! I don't think I would ever wrap favors again.

Toni,
My Party is June 24th... we are doing stuff early cuz we wont have time closer to the day of since we have so many other obligations.. parties, chistening etc. Im sure u know how that goes. But I use my brothers old bedroom for my wedding stuff so we have favors all across the room layed out seperatley so that the tulle doesnt flatten and stuff.
i will def. post a pic. tonight.

Im glad u girls dont think im crazy for saying mmy fingers tips are KILLING me.

I def. have a new found respect for the people who have stores and do wrapping all day everyday!!

I feel you on that!! I haven't even fully completed mine which is a chore today and to top that off...my cousin (my MOH) is the MOH for a good friend of hers from HS and I wrapped the favors for the shower to try and help out and I of course go above and beyond!! The bride loves music and gerber daisies so that's the shower theme and since my cousin didn't have enough time to do the ribbon with the name and date and such I cut out music notes from cardstock and am stenciling the words and date onto the note!! Why do I do this to myself?! My whole back is killing me from being so tense b/c I get very involved!! I laugh at myself But hopefully it will be worth it in the end!!

I'm sure the look beautiful Penny!! Can't wait to see pics!

thats why we are starting from now!!! No joke either though!!

Im doing 200 favors too.. but i have a feeling the bigger boxes will be easier than the tiny little ones that we wrapped last ngiht cuz the creases wont be so fine... Good luck to us all

I can at times become OCD about things

i'm so proud of you penny!!! I can't believe you did them all in one night!!!! thanks for the info.. I'll make sure I have a lot of people helping me

Wow! Good for you Penny!!
I hope your hands feel better for the weekend.

I am doing my best to find a favor that doesn't need to be wrapped or I can just put in a decorative bag.

Wow I bet it is tiring...that is great that you did them all...I will have to start doing finger excersises to get me in shape for our favors...
