Party Favour Tutorial

Still on the birthday theme (it was - after all - The Festival of Meeeeee!!!), I also whipped up some cute little party favours.

Again, really simple. A square of fabric (I think about 10 or 15cm square) trimmed with pinking shears. Some yo-yo's which I had made previously in a yo-yo-making frenzy, and some co-ordinating ribbon.

Contents were small wrapped Easter eggs, but you could use anything.

Construction was...

1. whip out the hot glue gun.



2. dab some hot glue on the back of the yo-yo's and attach each to a length of ribbon. I used a length of ribbon about the length of my forearm, but it will really depend on how big a bow you want, how long you want the tails to be and how much fabric it needs to get around.



3. wait until these dry. Shouldn't take too long.



4. Lay your fabric squares out and place the goodies in the centre.



5. Gather up the four corners of the fabric to make a little pouch.



6. Place the beribboned yo-yo's around the top of the pouch and wrap ribbon around a couple of times.



7. Tie ribbon behind the yo-yo's with a little bow.



8. Finished!!!
