How about a favor?

Good morning! Hope your monday started swell?

Here's another post about traditions: wedding favors!
They are pretty unknown in Denmark. And Switzerland. It might have been more common (way) back in time, though. Anyhoo, I first came across them when browsing American wedding websites and thought that it was a lovely gesture to give the guests a little something. I especially love the "original" idea of wrapping 5 sugared almonds in a pretty organza bag. The 5 almonds stand for happiness, health, wealth, children and a long life for the happy couple. Now it could also be small chocolates, or similar, but for this bargain bride, sugared almonds sound just about right :) So that would be another of my DIY projects:


Easy peasy, right?
