I was delighted to be asked to design and create the wedding favor boxes for my favorite niece’s wedding reception.

She became engaged and decided on the wedding date, planned the wedding in a matter of days. Since I was already planning to visit right before the ceremony, it made sense to pre-cut everything and assemble all while there.  My niece’s style is “classy”, not glitzy. The “Bracket Box” die template from Spellbinders Paper Arts™ was perfect. With the addition of Petaloo™ pre-made paper flowers the assembly was a breeze.

Behold: 150 beautiful boxes! wedding favor boxes
