    I went to Michael's craft store this past weekend and picked up half of my round tins for my favors (got them 50% off!).  I'm having a garden wedding so though of putting some seeds in the tins (miniature roses or daisys) but wanted to dress the tins up a bit more.  Decided to make the tins into a daisy since that's the flower I have chose for my wedding!  The one I made is just a mock up and the cut job, color and paper isn't what I'd be using but it's the general idea. (also wont be on white paper! that's just so I could get a better picture!)  What do you guys think?  

     

      For place cards I'm thinking of using miniature clay pots and making a wire flower to stick in them and having the cards clipped ontop..haven't made this yet but will soon! what do you guys think of this idea?

    Hmmm...I really love the flower pot placecard idea!!!

    Honestly, I think the flower seeds thing would look way cuter if it didn't have the paper flower around it. I think it would look great just in that tin maybe with a cute little ribbon around it in your wedding color.

    Love the eco gift!

    ditto @ starlightsatine - you may be able to mimic the flower shape with the ribbon in a bow on top and use that little yellow circle as a tag or something.. I love the idea of seeds though - I'm on a major gardening kick!

    I think you are making a more work for yourself with the flower portion. I think everyone will understand the tie to your theme without you having to do all that.  That would be a lot of cutting, and its not like its a nice straight line.

    Love the idea for place cards though!

    I think the flower cutout is a bit much and would be so much extra work! Maybe you could dress it up with a little ribbon around the base of the tin; if you want to incorporate a daisy, maybe print little stickers/tags for the lid that say "grow with love" like the mock-up and have a picture of a daisy on them. Plus if they're a little bigger you could fit your names/date on the sticker as well...maybe in around the edges like a border.
