Step 1: Using Microsoft Word, InDesign, Photoshop or Publisher, design the front and back images to create a template. This will take trial and error depending on the size of the matchboxes.

Step 2: After the images are printed, use a ruler and scissors to cut out the strips (leave a little more room width-wise to make sure there’s enough paper to cover the original matchbox cover).

Step 3: Using the glue stick apply adhesive to the cover, and place over the matchbox. Press firmly and set aside to dry!

Cake Pops

Several people have asked me my thoughts on the perfect wedding favor and the first thing that comes to my mind is cake pops! Cake pops swept the internet like a tidal wave last year and are probably one of the most delicious treats I have tried!

The reason I say these are one of my favorite favors is because not only are they simply scrumptious and impossible to resist, but you can design them to match any wedding theme or style.

Cake pops are basically smushed balls of cake with frosting, dipped in chocolate and decorated with some kind of confection…who wouldn’t like this?!

Cake is never going to be a healthy item on our diet so thank goodness for these bite sized goodies! Cake pops are a delicacy that can be enjoyed by anyone and everyone, and are the perfect send off for the ride home!   When choosing your wedding favors you want to consider your guest list, and discover something that suits all!

These flawless cake pops below were made by my talented sister, Laura!

Wedding Favors!

Choosing the right wedding favor is almost as important as choosing the precise color scheme, or finding the perfect dress. Wedding favors play an significant role because the wedding favor is the one part of the wedding which your guests will take home as a reminder of your wedding.

In our generation is it recommended that you send your guests home with a gift in the form of a wedding favor. This will show a small token of appreciation to your guests for attending the wedding.

Nowadays there is a whole range of wedding favor styles and ideas to choose from. Here are some of my favorites!

1. French Macaroons

2. Honey Jars – Its meant to bee!

3. Tequila Toast!

4. Jelly Beans – Thanks for bean here with us!

5. Champagne Celebration!

6. Chapstick – Mint to be!
