Favour wobble *flash* UPDATED WITH NEW PIC

Are they card butterflys?

NO they are made out of wood...

Sorry, couldn't tell from the pics, they are a lovely idea and I love the quote on the tags. What is it you don't like about them? Have you tried decorating them a different way?

I think its just because i done them so long ago and i keep looking at them wondering if they are ok...the quote was also on the front of our invitations....

IM disapointed as on the back of the luggage tags i just wrote our names and the wedding date and now i wish i had another stamp for it so it was neater....i might have to redo the tags....

I think it's a really pretty idea. Are they all finished? How many did you do?

I think they look lovely.

I suppose the thing for me is that they don't serve a 'purpose' if you see what I mean. I guess they are going to take quite alot of time and effort to make and I would always take it away with me, but I'm not sure everyone would. Maybe if you could get the quote actually on the butterfly? or even as a magnet or somthing, that might make it more of an item with a purpose.

or abutterfly shaped cookie?

So I don't think they are tacky, but just not certain people would know what to do with them!

Thanks you x I made about 40 of them so yeah i have enough for the ladies!

I'm sorry i'm not too keen. i dont thnk it looks tackys...i just dont see the point of it? is it just decorative?

Yeah loz - little wooden shapes that can be kept and hung?

I think its a lovely idea, I do feel the butterflies are a bit plain but certainly not tacky.

Could you decorate them in some way? maybe stick "jewels" or something on them to make them more attractive?

I could stick some pearls onto them to keep within the theme yeah....good idea!

Ahh i see. that makes a little more sense. then yes i like them. the pearls would look nice too.

If I got one, I would put it on my Christmas Tree each year. I would really like that, but then I have a very eclectic christmas tree!

same here, i think they are lovely!

My thought was also that they were perhaps a little plain hence asking how many you had already done and how much effort it would take to amend them but 40 is manageable. I think adding 'somthing' to them would be lovely. Lace or pearls. Organza ribbon is also a little more 'weddingy' and delicate looking.

I got given a wooden heart at a wedding last year and have it hanging on my chest of drawers handle and I enjoy having it there! Favours don't always have to have a 'point' and your guests will find their own way of keeping it and enjoying it.

Yes pearls would be great if that is your theme. Glad you liked the idea

I think that is fab, doing your own favours like that. Butterflies seem to be the "thing" at the moment

Mrs D soon to be...your thoughts are much appreciated. Im going to reorder the luggage tags in a cream colour and pearl it all up a little more! And get myself a nicer stamp for our names....or print on my own labels!

Thanks everyone

I think it's lovely that you made them yourself and they look like good quality but I wouldn't really know what to do with one. Having said that my experience of weddings is that most people don't even bother to take their favours home so I wouldn't worry too much. You made them, you like them, you give them! ?

I would be pleased if I was a guest at your wedding and like others have said would use your favour to hang on my Christmas tree

I was going to say the colour contrast between the label and the butterfly was too stark; a lighter luggage tag would look much better. If I got one of these I think I would hang it on my Christmas tree too, I love unusual decorations.

Make sure you flash us the new, updated article!

Thanks so much everyone! IM on it! New tags ordered and more pearls!!

I really like them but I think the cream luggage tages will work much better. How about sticking a really small purple butterly onto the wooden tag for a bit more colour?

I love your quote too

What about giving them a little bit more meaning by making a donation to charity on behalf of your guests. There are a few charities that have butterfly in their names here are some links

Might just be an idea. I have seen it at a few weddings and guests loved it. Otherwise your favours look beautiful and I am sure its just the fact you have been looking at them for to long I get like that when I have been editing the same set of photographs for a long period of time.

So cream tags...pearls...what do we think now?

These look great x

Thank you i feel much better about them now...x

Lovely! Really well done - you must be so chuffed!

Beautiful! and although i thought the first ones were fine now looking back at your original pic and comparing - these are so much better. well done x

Much better, love the pearls x

Fab. x

Thanks everyone!!
