We're doing homemade caramels. Go for something edible! If you have a lot of out of town guests, a local treat can be cute. Candy bars are usually a big hit, too. Is there some baked good, sauce, jam, etc. that you and your FI or your families make?
Cookies. We wanted to do edible favors, and then we heard about the cookie table (we aren't originally from here, so it was new to us), we decided to have take out containers for that.

We're doing little bamboo plants. We're attaching name tags to them so they're going to double as namecards. Might stick some kind of sticker on it with our names and wedding date.
My FI and I are just doing a candy bar. We are going to have candy in our two wedding colors and put them in all different kinds and sizes of glass containers and then just have ltitle take out containers for people to put them in.
I also love the edible favor idea. We are having the traditional cookie table, and since our reception has a light 'movie' theme (tickets for seat assignments, movie names as tables) the favors that will actually be at the table are boxes of movie theater candy like skittles, gummi bears, sno caps, etc. Each person at a table will have a different kind of candy so hopefully they will all share with one another!
