I was wondering about ideas for making your own plantable wedding favors. Any ideas?
I like the idea of making plantable seed favors for my wedding. But I would like to make them myself. Any ideas as to where to buy materials and whatnot?

Add wildflower seeds to homemade recycled paper. (Add the seeds to the paper pulp. Do not do the glue bath, or iron it)
After you dry the paper, print anything you want on it (Make our love bloom– or something like that. Then cut the paper out into hearts.
Give instructions that the paper hearts should be planted and watered.

In the most recent Martha Stewart magazine, she made pretty DIY tea bag gifts which I think you could alter to be seeds. You could buy an array of wild flower seeds, wrap them in a bit of cheese cloth, tie with a string & hang a pretty punched shape from the string or maybe a tag with planting instructions. I checked the website, but didn’t find it up yet, check the magazine next time you’re at the market (May issue, pg 46).
I did find this link to companies that offer eco friendly gifts & favors:

Are you talking about little packets of seeds? Nice thought, but I suspect that most of them will either be left behind or thrown into the rubbish.
Why have favors at all? The idea that anyone is going to be judging your taste and creativity based on your choice of favors is a silly myth promoted by The Wedding Industry to get people to buy silly things like little tulle bags and tiny silver buckets and cheap candy in expensive custom wrappings. The fact is that most people don’t even notice whether or not you have favors.

I LOVE the idea of flower seeds for favors. I saw them on a site not too long ago and thought it was such a cute idea. Honestly, it might be cheaper and easier if you were to purchase them rather than making them. The ones I saw were about $1 a piece. Like others said though, check the Dollar store first for materials. Here are a few favors I saw…

http://www.mrsweddingfavors.com/products/Seeds_of_Love_Plantable_Seed_Pots-6227-72.html This is my favorite plantable favor. It comes in several design styles to choose from. They work with almost any theme and are sure to add that special touch to your tables.
Since today is Earth Day, this eco-friendly favor tops my list.

The dollar store & check there often! They get a lot of different merchandise randomly every time they get a shipment. Also Oriental Trading.com has a lot of stuff you might be able to use for containers. They sell in bulk and CHEAP! Also look at Hobby Lobby &/or Micheal’s.
I love your idea! Congratulations on the wedding and good luck!

never underestimate the dollar store! you can get the right paper and stickers and ribbon and practically everything you need. also be on the lookout for warehouse craft stores that may have little packets pre-made for really cheap and you can personalize them by tying on your names and the date of the wedding.
I love that I idea too! I was even thinking of using little seedings maybe.
