I'm working on making my invitations, but have run into a problem so I decided to go ahead with my favor containers. I bought 3oz. tureen jars, then spray painted the top copper, and designed my own stickers for the top. after realizing they were .60 a piece! I need 200!!! that's more than the jars! We are doing a candy buffet, so guests will feel these for favors. I've also decided to go with a mosaic look for the tables and I've been buying stuff as we can afford it. my plan is to have a few of these at each table around the flower centerpieces (they have copper colored crystals at the bottom in the vase to bring it together). It all seems all over the place now, so I hope it comes together like I have it pictured! any suggestions based on the stuff I've posted? we are having willow branches in the centerpieces with swarovski and glass bead strings hanging from them.

The jars are cute, but man how big are they... they seem tiny... but I like the copper tops and stickers. The mosaic candles are very pretty... will give a very pretty warm glow to your reception venue!

they are 3 oz. jars. they look a little distorted in size from the pictures, but they are the size of regular favor boxes, candle jars, etc.
one thing that isn't right on them is the green writing, the computer ink is messed up, so it's supposed to be brown tones.

Those bronze candle things will look absolutely amazing. I've an environmentally conscious 7yo who insists on turning the lights off for one hour a night, so we have a house full of those exact mosiac holders. They make everything look so beautiful, and throw off a really pretty warm glow. Your reception is going to look incredible!
Good job on the little jars too, they're very cute.

I love the vases! We almost used similar gold/bronze mosaic vases for our centerpieces until we stumbled across some cute lanterns that fit our theme a little better. The copper tops with the stickers look great, too!

thanks for all of the nice comments. I did change the monogram for the favor jars.I think it looks much more crisp and clean....I also finished the invitation, not the right ribbon, but all I had handy to tie things together (pics to come later, the camera went dead). Our wedding is at a place called the majestic theater and we are having a tent reception in the courtyard... here they are:

scarymary48- where do you get yours, I've only been able to find them at one place, and they never have very many so I have to wait until they decide to order more? if you know of any online or anything please let me know!! Thanks!
