Package your cookie favors in CD Sleeves #Favor DIY#cookies#food#printables#steal-this-idea#wedding favors September 21 2012 | Guest post by Liz Gubernatis Giant cookies make great wedding favors. To package them for individual gifting, try a CD sleeve and sticker wrap. Materials and Tools CD sleeves with windows Cookies! Sticker wrap template here The template is available in Word so that you can "altar" the wording for your own event. Then just print onto sticker paper (or regular letter paper and attach with double-sided tape), cut out and voila! Slide your cookie in the sleeve and seal with your sticker. LOVE.

Fix Typo Guest post written by Liz Gubernatis Liz is a Pepsi addict who married her sword-wielding urban Viking (who probably inspired the “What’s in YOUR wallet?” commercials) on 1-1-11. Originally from Nebraska, she spent some time on the East Coast but left before it made her hard-hearted, landing back in the Midwest, where she thrives. She sews, paints, cooks, bakes, plays with paper, computers and cats, loves chocolate, peanut butter, and popcorn, and frequently purges her apartment to make room for more fabric, craft supplies, and projects to play with. http://swordinthestove.com PREVIOUS Kelsea & Henry's Northwest garden party wedding NEXT The opposite of classy: IRON FIST wedding shoes all up in your eyeballs Show/Hide comments [ 5 ] Thank you for this! I've been thinking about favors, and generally I find them to be pretty boring. I don't want to just order a ton of crap that nobody wants. Everyone loves cookies! My wedding colors are gray and yellow, so I'm thinking of ordering gray sleeves and making lemon iced sugar cookies. This would be PERFECT for my DIY wedding! Thanks! Reply That sounds awesome! Share pictures when you're done! And recipe! 🙂 Reply That's a really great idea. And so easy and cute. I'm just wondering, aren't there going to be grease stains all over the paper? You could of course add a second layer of plastic (a little bag or something) but then the cookie might not look as nice… hmmm… Reply I think I'm going to put a square of parchment paper behind the cookies (where they rest against the paper). If I make the cookies enough ahead of time and refrigerate them, I don't think grease stains will be an issue. Reply Thank you for posting the labels and making them easy to edit. I really appreciate it!!!! Reply Join the conversation Cancel Reply Your email address will not be published.
