BRONZE BUDGET BRIDE

I was so thrilled to come across this DIY project at ProjectWedding.com that uses Tulips as wedding favors. They are so cute, guests would just love them. It is a very cost effective way to be green and give a beautiful gift as well.

On a recent trip to a Home Depot in our area,  at the entrance I noticed that they had potted Tulips on sale for just $2.00. There were at least five bulbs per pot, so Tulips can be found quite affordably right now.

You can read the article here on how to make the favors using the paper bags as seen in the photo above but what I love about this project is that you can also use the favors as centerpieces . By grouping a few of them together  in just the white Solo cups, I think they would make an adorable table display. You can always personalize the cups with permanent marker and add ribbon from a Walmart or Michaels near you.  A nice touch  would be to add personalized ribbon instead from Efavormart.com and that way you'll be saving yourself half the work but get just as charming a result.

So take this idea and run with it... make it yours, find a way to make it suit you and your personality. I'm sure what you come up with will be brilliant.
