Homemade Bridal Shower Favors

Homemade bridal shower favors are easier to find these days if you're not looking to make them yourself but you still want that homemade flavor. So even if they're not handcrafted by you personally, they can still be tailored to your theme just by adding a little extra personal touch.

Below are some ways you can pull together a variety of pieces to assemble and personalize handcrafted or homemade bridal shower favors to match your theme then simply add a bit of your own personality to them.

Candle Bridal Shower Favors
Maybe you're not able to make your own candles but you can purchase little votive or tea light candles in bulk. This may even be less expensive than making them yourself if you calculate the cost of all of the supplies to making your own candles.

Whether you buy tea light or votive candles will depend on the size and type of bridal shower favors you're making. Votives will burn longer, but either style will be just fine for a nice little favor for your guests.

The type of candle holders you buy or make again will depend on what style candle you're using. And if you're looking to save a lot of cost, you can use votive candles which really don't need to be in a holder at all. You can put a label on the candle then either drop it into a cute little organza bag or wrap it in tulle and tie the top with ribbon.

Edible Favors
If you like to bake, sugar cookies are an excellent choice for tasty homemade bridal shower favors. Use a cookie cutter in the shape of the bride's first name initial, decorate them with sprinkles or icing in the shower color theme then put a couple of cookies into decorative bags or boxes.

Candy is also a favorite for bridal shower favors. Simply buy a couple of bags of different candies in bulk and add a mixture of them into little bags or boxes.

Handcrafted Jewelry
Most craft stores like Michael's or ACMoore have the supplies to make your own jewelry. This would include the wires for making earrings or blank chains and bags of charms for making a charm or ankle bracelet.

Sewing or Knitting
If you're handy with a sewing machine or knitting or crochet needles, you can make little personalized pot holders for your guests.

Paper Crafts
Another idea for homemade bridal shower favors is paper bookmarks that you print, cut and laminate. You can do this yourself if you have a good printer and laminating machine.

Potpourri Favors
There are a couple of ways to package potpourri for homemade bridal shower favors. First, you can buy the bags of potpourri and empty them into little tins or containers, then wrap the container with decorative ribbon.

Or you can go a little more delicate and simply wrap the bag of potpourri in a cellophane wrap and tie with a ribbon.

These ideas are just a few ideas for homemade bridal shower favors. And of course, adding custom laminated bridal shower bookmarks to any of the ideas above is adding a simple special touch to the favors you choose for your guests.
