    I think people would appreciate the candy more than the box, no offense.  Its beautiful, but I think most people toss favors that aren't edible.

    Maybe just make them as centerpieces and not favors- they are very pretty.

    I think they are very pretty- but to be completely honest if I got a box like that at a wedding it would probably either get left at the reception or thrown away. I don't want that to sound rude, I just don't usually save little boxes and things like that. I would hate to see you put all that hard work into something that your guests might not necessarily use or save. That being said, I may be in the minority for wedding guests... maybe most people save and use their wedding favors! Again, I think they are very pretty but you may consider something more practical that isn't as time consuming and that would be used more by your guests!

    @theredhead:  I'm the same way. I'd look at it at the wedding & then probably not think about it again.

    i think they are pretty (maybe you can give them out at a bridal shower?) but i agree, most people just toss the boxes and eat the candy. i would focus more on the edible  part.

    Since you want honesty, I'll be honest and say they are gaudy.  I would take the candy adn ditch the box as a guest.  Sorry.

    I would totally reuse the box, it's so pretty! I would probably use it for gifting someone jewelry at Christmas or b-day! 

    eta I guess I like gaudy! ;)
