So my car had to be towed and that meant I couldn't run around to stores to get the supplies to do this last minute request for wedding favors. When I procured a ride to the craft store I knew I had to buy everything during that one trip. I looked up and saw this favor tin kit. I thought wow all I have to do is use the online template to add a picture and a sentiment. Easy peasy right? Well....NOOOOTTTTT!!!! Two and a half hours and several test sheets later I still could not get the sentiment to line up on the circle labels. I was so frustrated. The internet was loaded with comments about how the template didn't work and how disgusted folks were with this product. I just stepped away from my computer and came up with another idea. Here is what I came up with:

| thankfully I had already purchased the mints |

| I made my own circle labels to put on the bottom |

| A stickled butterfly for the top |

| Necessity really does breed creativity...and so does having deadlines lol |
What was supposed to be a simple project that only took a couple of hours ended up taking all day. The bride was so pleased with the favors...whew!
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you come again soon.
