Homemade Wedding Favors under 5

A lot of couples do not have a big budget for wedding favors. Because you need so many of them, the costs can add up. You may also want to do something special and make some wedding favors that are homemade. There are a variety of favors that you can make for under $5.
Baked treat
One idea is to give your wedding guests something homemade that is edible. For instance, if you have a great cookie recipe, then you can make many batches of cookies, put them in little bags and give them as your gift. You could also make some savory fudge, brownies or miniature cakes. If you give small enough batches, they should easily come in at under $5 each. It is also something that people will enjoy very much and show extra effort on your part.
Hand decorated picture frame
You can usually buy very small wooden picture frames for well under $5. You can then get some markers or paint (that is made to go on wood) and decorate the frame. You can decorate it however you want, including details such as your names, date, and the guests’ names.
Handmade candy bar wrapper
Some people choose to give away candy at their weddings, generally an inexpensive treat. You can make on the computer a wrapper to go on top of the candy bar. Alternately you can hire a company to do so for you, and many of these will be under $5 each.
Special letter
One very special handmade gift is to write everyone a special letter for your wedding. You can hand write it or type it out on the computer and it can contain your thanks to the person. You can write about your relationship throughout the years and why you value the relationship that you have so much. You can make it as long or as short as you want (it will probably vary based on how close you are to the guest). It may be a little time consuming but it can be a very special gift.
Handmade jewelry
For the ladies who are your guests you can make some handmade jewelry for under $5. You can buy some cords and some pretty beads or crystals. When you buy in bulk, you should be able to make some pieces such as bracelets, earrings and simple necklaces for under $5.
Wedding favor choices are plentiful. With cleverness and creativity, you can create your own for under $5 each.
