It’s been a few months since we’ve dabbled in a DIY project, but worry not couples-to-be, the DIY Divas are back! And you’re going to love this summer-inspired project. After a week of gushing over our recent succulent theme wedding inspiration board, we decided a succulent favor must be made, and a few simple steps later… voila!
Succulent Favor Supplies
- Small succulents from your local market, hardware store or florist
- Tins or containers
- Twine
- Cardstock
- Hole punch
- Personalized gift tags (our Modern Squares design is perfect for a bright summer celebration.)
Step 1: Prep Your Plant
Gently groom your succulents and remove any excess debris or dead leaves. Remove them from the plastic containers they came in and snuggle them into their shiny new tins.
Step 2: Assemble Your Gift Tags
Secure your gift tags to your cardstock and cut down to size. Make sure to leave enough room at the top for a hole punch. Then, slide your twine through the hole and tie them around the tin with a tight knot.
Step 3: Display and Delight!
Set them at each guest’s place setting and watch them swoon. It’s that easy!
