FYI- Favor idea for less than 0.75 cents a person!!

I wanted to have little flower pots and flowers for my wedding favors but luckily all of the garden centers are down to big perenialls this time of year so I scratched that idea and found an even better one!!

I bought little white buckets from the dollar store in packs of three. They are all over the internet for varying prices. Here is one site: http://www.amazon.com/White-Pail-Wedding-Favors-1/dp/B003VKZ5VK

Then, when looking for little blooming flowers at the Home Depot garden center (and failing), I came upon a box of 60 daffodil bulbs for $17!  (they also have tullips and a few other kinds). Thats less than 30 cents a bulb and considering I paid about 30 cents a bucket, I have favors for around 60 cents a piece! I will attach a note with planting directions and a saying like "Think of us (or pray for us- whichever you prefer) when these come up in the spring!"


I don't know about you but I am stoked for this idea. Who doesn't love daffodils?

Enjoy! and Happy Wedding!

I think it's a cute idea, but I would have to leave this favor behind.  I live in an apartment and can't plant flowers here.  You may have people in that situation or who are not into gardening or planting flowers, so just a heads up to be prepared to maybe have quite a few left over.

me bing a bit ocd- i would hate only having 1 bulb to plant in my flower beds. i would at least give out 2 bulbs per guest/couple. that way they are more likely to plant a new flower if they can have them evened out and not just 2 random flower.
