Not Your Average Bridal Baking Supplies

I am a sucker for cute baking supplies so I loved this post from The Inspired Bride.

Bridal Shower Baking Supplies from Layer Cake Shop

Layer Cake Shop recently launched a new website storefront that features a lot of incredibly cute stuff for baking. There are really adorable baking cups that are a heck of a lot cuter than the standard grocery store variety. Their toppers are really great, too! I immediately thought that it’s an awesome place to go for really hip bridal shower cupcake making! How cute are the little white birds? They’d be great for an at home wedding with homemade cupcakes to give them a little something extra special! Spend some time digging through the assortment – there’s some great stuff!

Eco-friendly Flower Bulb Favor

Wraparound Favor Labels

Our personalized labels and tags are sold separately here

PLEASE NOTE: Bulbs start shipping in September. If wedding date is given in the field below, bulbs will arrive separately 10 days before to ensure freshness.

100% Recycled Favor Box

  • Natural kraft boxes and white gloss boxes are made from 100% recycled fibers.
  • Approximately 80% of this is composed of post-consumer recovered fiber. The remaining 20% is pre-consumer fiber sources from industrial trimmings and the like.
  • These boxes are also 100% recyclable.
  • A water based varnish stripe is applied to the kraft boxes to give a grooved, textured appearance.
  • Made in the USA.

Daffodils

Probably nothing in the gardening world is more foolproof and more rewarding than “naturalizing” daffodils. Because unlike most other garden flowers, these fantastic plants are super-easy to plant in fall, they don’t care about soil, as long as it’s well-drained, and they’ll bloom beautifully for you with absolutely no work every spring after you plant them. Best of all, daffodils increase over the years, each bulb developing into a blooming clump. All you have to do is pick the spots. The one thing to remember is that you won’t be able to mow that area until the tops die down. Everything else takes care of itself. In a new or established wildflower meadow, the wildflower plants grow up around the daffodils hiding the fading foliage, so there’s no work to do. And if you’re planting wildflower seed, what could be easier that to pop in the bulbs when you have the ground already turned?

New Spring 2009 Wedding Favors

Sea Glass Luminary Favor

Our new line of spring wedding favors is up and ready to ship! My personal favorite this year are the Sea Glass Luminaries with beaded handles – they are sure to bring the beauty of the beach to your tables.

You don’t have to be having a beach-themed wedding to add these special luminary favors to your event. These tealight favors are so pretty and can be used for special events, showers, parties, etc. I would love to have them on the table at a dinner party for a soothing effect.

There are also quite a few favors this spring with cherry blossoms, all of which are completely gorgeous AND practical! I am not one to push useless favors, as they really should be a way to say thank you to your guests for sharing your event and celebrating your day, whatever it may be. I love these Cherry Blossom Glass Coaster Favors and the Cherry Blossoms Vellum Wine Glass Shades. With one of those battery operated tealights, they would make a beautiful addition to your tables, nighttime or day.

And of course we love our eco-friendly favors, from reusable shopping bags, to Herbs in a Box, to bamboo coasters and soaps with recycled paper labels. The
Herbs in a Box is one of our bestsellers, a completely recycled, reusable and practical gift for guests. It comes with a reusable, recycled kraft box, a peat pot and peat pellet and seeds, instructions for planting and raffia ribbon, all completely compostable.

We’ve got a brand new bag.

Chico Reusable Shopping Bag

Chico Reusable Shopping Bag

Green is the new cool. Do you notice every where you go people are talking about being green and it has nothing to do with a cute and slightly clueless amphibian? It seems as if everyone is jumping on this bandwagon – but if there is a trend to be had, this is it. We’ve been talking about being eco-friendly with our favors for awhile and it’s become a major focal point in adding new products and packaging options, even when considering shipping our items. We’ve found some great hip new favor bags made from cogon grass in remote villages around the world as well as some cute little tote bags made from sustainable bamboo. I am really excited to be able to find so many options to offer, as an informed woman very interested in using other resources besides trees and plastic.

I am also pleased to report we are adding reusable fabric grocery and shopping bags to the mix to be sold as singles or in packs for favors or gifts or just because you want to get on board the eco-train. They are so lightweight and roll up into their own little pouch that makes them so great for our site. The bags can hold from 25 to 44lbs, depending on which one you like, but considering a gallon of milk weighs 7 pounds, these bags are pretty strong and durable yet still roll up small enough to stick in your purse or glove compartment!

After spending some time perfecting our Herbs in a Box Wedding Favor, we decided to add a more simple option for those looking for green favors with a smaller price tag. These Herbs in a Box® Junior Favors are really cute little offerings to guests and we have a variety of herbs to choose from. We are now using peat pellets with all the herbs favors as they cut down on assembly time and are much more feasible as a favor that will travel with guests.

We do not sell the labels with these favors, however, as customers are welcome to purchase any label or tag they want. The boxes are
3″W x 3″L x 2″H and come with your color choice of raffia (wraphia) ribbon. Both our 2.5″ round labels
or the 2″ tags would work and we are in the process of expanding our wraparound label selection which would also work. If there is a design you like but do not see an option in the format you are looking for, please feel free to email us or call.
*These favors are designed with 100% recycled material. Kraft boxes and raffia ribbon are 100% recycled. Peat pellets and peat pots are 100% earth-friendly biodegradable options for planting. Seeds a packed in glassine paper bags which are 100% Biodegradable and 100% Recyclable. All tags are printed on 100% recycled material.
