Shower Favors

I started working on some origami boxes (40 of them!) to be used as favor containers at Alison's Bridal Shower this coming weekend. I found paper in three modern floral prints that each incorporate her wedding colors (raspberry and lime) and made up a sample in each.

I still need to work on creating a tag of some description to attach to each of them, but here are the samples thus far...

Very lovely If I get a vote, I go with the first one - the one with the white background

These are so fantastic!!! This is the perfect way to use up all the gallons of paper I am hoarding! I'll def be giving this a shot! Thanks!

FYI I used regular scrapbook paper in 8in square (bottom) and 8.5in square (lid) -- if you use cardstock, you'll want to make a larger box, because the folds (even with a bone folder) are bulkier and less-polished if you try and do smaller boxes... :) Have fun!
