"Love That Grows" Flower Seeds
Flower seed pouches are a sweet and easy Do-it-Yourself wedding favor. As they are both memorable and sentimental, your guests will love this gift that truly keeps on giving.
What you will need:
- Bulk Flower Seeds
- Mini wire stemmed roses or ribbon
- Plastic our tulle pouches
- Paper/Ink/Printer
First, in choosing what kind of flower you give out at your wedding, you want to consider a few of things. Do you want to give ones with a significant meaning? If so, you can find flower meanings at AboutFlowers.com. Also, do you want the flowers to be annuals (blooms for one year) or perennials (returns year after year) or bloom a certain color? A good choice is the wild flower seed that they sell at Walmart in the big tubs.
Next, gather quotes. Quotes on love, life or being happy. In Microsoft Office or Open Office create a table as a template and put an individual quote in each table cell. Make sure to choose a font and color that goes with your wedding theme for the quotes. Use the table as a guide to cut out the quotes.
Then, 2 tablespoon or so of seeds in each bag and slip the paper with the quotes in the pouch. Tie with either/or the wire stemmed roses or ribbon. Lastly, gather all the pretty little pouches in a large decorative basket and there you have it- an easy to do wedding favor with a personal touch.
Oh ! Really Beautiful Flowers basket !i love these.Lovely
wow, can i order through u? plz let me know if not then where can i order the leaves and the flowers thanx so much!!
Casino-on-net, I found the flowers at the craft store AC Moore. I would be more than happy to further assist you if you need any made. Let me know :)
I want to wear a flower in my hair for my wedding. If my dress is white, does the flower need to be white also? Would an ivory flower look tacky? I'm wearing it under a veil. My wedding flowers are mostly pink, but I don't want pink in my hair.
It can be what ever color you would like it. It does not need to be white. Ivory would look pretty. If you are still unsure, I would suggest doing a test run with different flowers to see which you like best.
wow.. very nice flowers,it can be serve as a thank you to visitors..
it's really amazing. I love the flowers.
I quite love the idea of Flower seeds as one of the give-aways in my wedding. It's very personalize especially with the quotes and all that. This one is a unique one (and economical as well)compared to all the common stuffs given away during a wedding.
That's very unique for a wedding give-away. There are couples who prefer to have those CDs, figurines, etc. as give-aways. It didn't cross my mind that flower seeds can be one too. Its very rare and economical compare to the customary stuffs. Thanks for this!
Great idea! I love it, I would like to get a good idea for my guest, was thinking in some chocolates and sweets in a bag, but definetly this idea is so cool!
Such a cute idea! Really great if a specific type of flower has special meaning to the wedding couple, but still nice even without that. It's an affordable gift that guests can use.
what a beauty))) cute, I like it so much)))
Really Beautiful i like it, thanks for the great tips.
What a thoughtful idea, your guests will always have a memory of your special day when ever their flowers bloom
i love it!
Ah great idea! The simple ones are always the best.
First time I've seen seeds used as wedding favors and I think it is a wonderful idea. Eco-friendly and affordable.
Diy must be a great Idea,,,and you've shared the nice tips...
Yes, this is a darling idea. Remember to keep a couple of pouches for yourself - one to go with your other wedding memorabilia and another to plant in your own backyard. Perennials seem the most appropriate choice - growing each year, just like your love :)
Keep the great stuff coming... I love your site.
With the continuous increase of prices in the market, DIY is really a great idea to prevent yourself in spending a lot of money specially in occasions like this.
