I hate my favors

Original post by StaceYums81

I thought they were going to look so cool but they are looking like a 2 yr old put them together - they are so hard to make

What about if you leave them as is but instead of tying the personalized ribbon around the celophane tie a generic ribbon and then wrap the whole thing in an organza bag and put the personalized ribbon on that?

Use cellophane bags. It's 10000x's easier and has the same effect. Get the one's that shrink when you put a blow dryer to them. That works so well! Michaels has the bags over by the wrapping stuff.

what if you flipped the cellophane around and had t coming up from the bottom so you tied the top and fanned it out or something?

what if you use organza or tulle to wrap it instead



I agree. I think they look fine the way they are, but if you're not happy, then I like Jackie's idea.

Ugh I know how you feel, i helped my brother wrap all his wedding favors and they were packaged similar to yours.....and it is a real PAIN.

I think your favors look great personally! If you're not happy than the only thing I would suggest is wrapping them with tulle instead of cellophane....that may give you the look you're envisioning.

I like them. but if you really dislike them, if it was me, i'd just wrap the candies in a little organza bag, put the bag inside the martini glass and then still tie the ribbon around the stem.

I think they look great! BUT if they take that long for only 6, I would definitely get a bridesmaid sweatshop organized to make the time go faster!

I like them, they don't look bad at all. Time consuming can get really frustrating, what if you tied a rubber band around the stem of the glass and the cellophane and then tied the personalized ribbon over the rubber band? KWIM? That might be easier to work with instead of having to tie the ribbon just right the first try.

they look awesome. I'm with Alyssa try flipping the wrap. I can also tell u from experience the tulle or organza is a PITA as well

1st of all, I really like them! I did the same thing with shot glasses and it worked out better to wrap the M&M's with the personalized bow and sit them in the glass.
