Wedding almonds are gladly taken. These are available in different colors, so that you can lean the wedding almonds great on your color theme. Also peppermint sweets, small mints, chocolate lentils, dragées, fruit jelly hearts and much more can be used to fill the gifts for the guests

How do I decorate the gift?

Again, let your creativity run free and decorate the gifts to match your wedding or theme. Our example was decorated with a feather element and in the colours Pink, white and Lilac. soft tones, which fit perfectly to a spring-like wedding.

And so it goes

Fill the jars with a sweet of your choice (wedding almonds, pepper mint, fruit gum, etc.). We have used pink and white chocolate lentils for our guest gift, which you will find everywhere in food retail stores.
We decorated the glass vessels with Lace ribbon. To attach the Lace ribbon we put some double-sided Adhesive tape on the belly of the glass vessel and fixed the Lace ribbon on it. On glass the Adhesive tape sticks wonderfully and is a clean alternative to liquid glue. As a loving extra we have glued a wooden feather on a thin lilac Satin ribbon . The feather is in this case the recurring element of our wedding. Lilac our wedding color. The Satin ribbon is glued to the Lace ribbon with a slightly narrower double-sided Adhesive tape

For the trailers we have cut Coloured paper to the DIN A4 format. In this size, we can print it with a standard printer. In the PC we have chosen a nice font and placed the word " thank you" several times on one page. In order to determine whether the font size and arrangement is suitable for punching out the word, the page should first be printed out on normal Paper - then only on the fixed Coloured paper. For the lid of the jar we printed out the names of the bridal couple and the wedding date. When creating the font, make sure that the font is arranged and sized correctly. Test some printouts to find the right size for punching

Punch the Coloured paper with a Motif Punch of your choice. For the cover we have used a serrated circle with a diameter of about 3.8 cm. For the pendant we also used this Motif Punch and additionally we used a Motif Punch with a heart motif with a diameter of 2.5 cm. For punching the pendant the Coloured paper for the two pendants circle and heart is punched with an eye punch and then wrapped around the glass with a Satin ribbon . With a nicely tied bow the simple glass bottle becomes a beautiful, festive guest gift.
