    Is anyone else DIYing their bonbonniere's.  My FMIL and I made homemade soaps.  I then ordered small boxes to put them in which I am going to stamp with the tree from our invite.  

    My BM and I then made recycled paper from the offcuts we saved from the wedding and engagement invites mixed with everlasting seeds.  We cut out leaf shapes from the handmade paper and two leaves will then go on top of each box as a place setting!! We will use raffia to tie not ribbon though. What do you think?! Can't wait to put it all together to see the final look!

    The honey & oatmeal soaps:

    The seeded recycled paper we made:

    The place cards (the edges are a little wet here as I wanted to "roughen" them it will dry the same colour):

    Dude, I totally read this post as "boutonnieres" and became really confused by the pictures. Had to google bonbonnieres. New word for me!

    We haven't done ours yet, but yours look awesome! I love th stamp on the box.
