Bridal Shower Favor, Hawaiian Style

Hello blog friends!

Kristie here today from

Kristie Kreates.

Today I'd like to show you a cute bridal

shower favor idea from "Veils and Vengeance"

In this Wedding Planner Mystery

Adrielle Pyper plans a wedding in beautiful Hawaii.

Chapter 10 begins with a fun bridal shower favor.

"Using ribbon, tie a bottle of finger nail polish to 

a pair of flip-flops with a personalized note

from the bride.
Example:  I'd flip without friends like you.

Thanks from the bottom of my toes!"

Here is my example to show you how cute 

this idea is.

I used 3 different fabric flowers and held them together

with a large brad.  You can find a wide variety of brads

in your local craft stores.

There are a many choices for flowers.

You can purchase them at a craft store, packages specifically

for craft projects.  Or you can purchase stems of flowers and

take them apart.  Depending on the type of flower, color and size

you want to use, you can purchase them at your local

craft or discount stores.

Once you have assembled your flowers, they can

be adhered to the flip flops with strong adhesive

or thread.  Just be sure that they will be comfortable

for the recipient.  Example: don't use wire or a rough

thread like jute.

The tag I made was simple.

I printed out the sentiment on white paper from my

computer, cut it down and adhered it to a piece of card stock,

then I added a small flower with an adhesive crystal

in the center.

I happened to have a little "Thank You" charm and added

that to the ribbon tied around the nail polish.

These types of charms can usually be found in packets in

the bridal section of your craft store at a very reasonable price.

I added the tag to the ribbon with a piece of thread and it was

done.  Very easy.

I did all my components in purples, but you could use 

whatever colors you'd like to coordinate with the 

wedding colors.

Here are some flower examples that I made with 

other colors and types of flowers.

These are a much smaller flower, you could add one

to the flip-flops or a few.

It's your favor, so do what you like.

I think these make an adorable favor or thank you

gift for a shower or for the brides attendants.

How cute would they be for a beach wedding?!?!

I've been to a few weddings where the bride and her 

attendants change from their shoes to flip-flops

after the ceremony, it would be cute to have

matching flip-flops for the wedding party.

There are lots of possibilities, use your imagination

and make them however you like.

Thanks for stopping by today,

I hope you like Adrielle's cute flip-flop and

nail polish idea.
