Wedding favors


Guess what I've been busy making?
My sister Bey is getting married Saturday the 21st 

THIS SATURDAY

We started off with three of us making these

My sister 
a good friend
and I

Over a glass of wine and a long over due conversation

Everyone left....

And the next morning, I had 100 empty boxes and chocolates staring at me

CHOCOLATES!!!

Do you know how dangerous that is?
That afternoon another good friend came for a visit and helped me finish most of them. We chatted, and ever so often we would pop these chocolate babies into our mouths. I am so glad they're done.  Although now, I may need a JC Penny girdle...

We are so excited and looking forward to her wedding

      Hi Marisa,
      Nothing to it.. Bought the boxes from hobby lobby ribbon comes with it, bought a package of crinkled paper. And chocolate came from SAMs wholesale ..
      The hard part is tying a bow flat.. Hah.
      Instructions for boxes come on the package..make the box, stuff paper, add the chocolate, close box and tie a bow.. Oh the custom tags came from etsy...

    LOL!! You should have called me to come over and help - we would have had a wonderful time! And I wouldn't have "popped" a single chocolate into my mouth - I can't STAND chocolate anymore! It's been about 6 months now that I can not even choke down anything chocolate. I've been practicing my Acupressure and I'm certain that one point in particular changed my taste for chocolate! And so many of my dessert specialties are chocolate. But, I'm changing!!

    Hugs,
    Jan ♥
