These combination favor boxes and place cards offered the guests at my adult Girls Night In Coloring Party a place to toss their colorful pens and pencils at night’s end, and they also gave me a place to stow away some holiday candy for them to take home. Finished with their names in handwritten calligraphy, and these boxes are anything but frivolous!

Next, fill the insides of the boxes with sheets of Pink Tissue Paper and an assortment of candy. I chose little chocolate hearts as well as a handful of M&M’s® Minis Valentine Candy Fun Packs.

With the inside finished, fold up the box and carefully stick on a row of Mini Heart Stickers laid on their sides end-to-end at the bottom edge of the box. The best part about this project is that you can easily customize the look with any pattern you choose, so think creatively!

Now simply hand write your guests’ names on the sides of the boxes using a Sharpie® Fine Point Marker, and come party day, you can set the boxes at each place setting to denote your seating.
