Here are the instructions on how to make the inexpensive bookmark/tea light/candy favors I came up with for my Celtic themed, after-wedding, sort-of-reception party.
Something like this would also be great for any type of party, especially if there is a theme. Just change the charm & colors to match the theme such as orange & black with bat charms for Halloween, or mix & match bright colors for a Mad Hatter Tea Party!
♦ 36 Vanilla and Mocha Java scented tea light candles in Ivory (from WorthySoyCandles.Etsy.com, best soy candles evah!)
♦ 24yds of 1/4" Ivory satin ribbon**
♦ 36 asst'd silver heart charms*
♦ 36 silver-toned jump rings*
♦ 2 sheets of white cardstock** & color printer
♦ 1 roll of Glue Dots**
♦ Scissors & patience ~or~ a 1.5"W circle punch
♦ Emery board/fine sandpaper
♦ Lighter
♦ Rubberband (optional)
[I got most of my supplies from *OrientalTrading.com and **Hobby Lobby. Coupons found on RetailMeNot.com made this even cheaper!]
