DIY Bachelorette Party Favors: How To Make Favor Bags

How To Make Favor Bags

Today I want to show you how to make favor bags! This is what I did for for Jaime’s bachelorette party – they turned out cute and simple, using mostly supplies from Dollar Tree. If you’re having a hard time finding the right thing for your party, perhaps this will provide some inspiration.

DIY party favors

The favors consisted of the simple DIY tea bag craft I showed you yesterday, along with a glowstick bracelet. I found a package of 15 for $1, and since the plan was to go ’80s dancing after the bachelorette, I thought this would fit with the theme and be a fun item to wear clubbing. We were actually having so much fun at the party that we never even left to go to the club, but it was still a fun favor! 😉

Making The Favor Bag Label

I picked up 2 packages of pink paper bags at Dollar Tree, and printed little cards commemorating the occasion and date, which I taped to the front of each bag.

Engagement Photo Seal

I also printed out one of the couple’s engagement photos and taped it to the back of the bags to seal them shut.

I then printed out a sign reading “Favor Bags – please take one!” and arranged them on a table at the party.

DIY Bachelorette Party Favors: Tea Bag Craft How-To

Thanks to Good Earth Tea for providing samples for this craft!

When it came to assembling party favors for Jaime’s bachelorette, I opted for a fun and easy craft that any tea-lover will appreciate! All it requires is a few boxes of tea, tulle, ribbon and scissors. Here’s how I did it:

DIY Bachelorette Party Favors How-To: Tea Bag Craft

Craft How-To: Supplies Needed

To make my craft, I utilized 3 boxes of Good Earth Tea: One 25-count box of Original Sweet & Spicy, one 18-count box of Sweetly Twisted, and one 18-count box of Cocoa Tango. Because I was making 13 favor bags, this gave me enough for 4 teabags per favor – I did 2 each of the Sweet & Spicy and 1 each of the other flavors.

Good Earth Tea Bags

Using a roll of tulle I picked up and Dollar Tree and some ribbon I had in my gift wrap box, I got to work.

Step 1: Wrap Tea Bags in Tulle

Cutting a section of tulle 18″ long, place the tea bags in the middle & wrap the tulle around them.

Pinch the tulle around the top

Pinch and hold the tulle around the top in preparation of tying with the ribbon. I found that the teabags had the tendency to fall out the side, so I just had to finesse them into place before securing; a more elegant solution to this would be buying a wider roll of tulle. 😉

Scissors Cutting Ribbon

Tie Ribbon Around The Top

Tie a length of ribbon around the top of the craft.

Tea Bag Craft, Complete!

That’s all there is to it!
