After a wonderful night celebrating your nuptials, it's always nice to send your guests home with something that they will not only enjoy, but something that pays homage to the theme of your wedding. For our recent French Chateau Inspired Wedding, we chose to send our loved ones home with a DIY Favor Basket. This decorated basket is full of French inspired snacks that guests will be excited to devour long after the party has ended. Find out how to make yours by following these few simple steps!
Begin by painting a Bamboo Rectangle Basket with Gray Acrylic Paint and allow to dry.
Cut a piece of Bleached White Muslin and place it in the basket as lining.
For the first treat, add either homemade or store-bought raspberry jam to an Embossed Pint Mason Jar. Tie a piece of Antique White Satin Ribbon around the Jar. Adorn it with a dollop of Gold Wax Glue and press the Fleur De Lis Wax Stamper onto it. Finally, Hot Glue a small sprig of Frosted Greenery to the side of the lid for a lovely detail.
Place a Personalized Silver Foil Mini Wine Bottle Label on a bottle of sparkling rosé or the drink of your choice. Add it into the basket.
Add in a Wine Bottle Cork Place Card Holder. We loved that these corks had the perfect chateau look to them!
Lastly, add in a fresh, French baguette, a Knife for spreading your jarred jam and a simple notecard made from Ivory Cardstock saying "Merci" into the basket and allow your guests to enjoy!
