Succulent Wedding Favors + Tea Cups = Perfection

Posted July 19, 2011 by EmmalineBride | ♥ 9 Comments - Leave a Comment!

Give guests the gift of plantable succulents! Succulents are easy plants for guests to maintain because they are hardy, retain plenty of water, and can withstand colder temperatures than other plants. These easy-to-DIY succulent wedding favors (which double as place cards, too!) are placed in tea cups ready for guests to plant. Since they are “planted” into whimsical tea cups, guests get two gifts in one! Gather plenty of vintage tea cups from places like thrift shops, garage sales, or estate sales – the more mismatched, the better. Each guests will have a one-of-a-kind planter piece to cherish for years.

    I LOVE this idea and am going to do this for a bridal shower I have next weekend! I have been looking for the perfect favor and now I can’t wait to go to antique shops to get the teacups!
