Lucky Bamboo Favors & Centerpieces


The site where that cute favor came from has tons of customization options! You can chose from 1, 2, or 3 bamboo sticks. And you can change the color of the rocks and marbles in the vase, as well as add gold, silver, or red metallic ties to the bamboo sticks.
I saw these and thought that they would make adorable favors, but I would prefer that there was some personalization...Maybe the vase could have our names and wedding date in-scripted on it.

Well they do offer a personalized tag:


Of course, this favor sure is simple enough that I could make it myself.
But sometimes the ready made favors actually come out cheaper than buying all the pieces yourself and putting them together.

I never really thought that I would do too much DIY wedding stuff. I just always assumed I would whip out my credit card and then deal with paying everything off later.
Of course, I love crafts, and I consider myself quite crafty. So I would probably have a ton of fun doing some DIY wedding projects.

As long as I obviously start them all enough in advance that I can get everything done without getting stressed and rushed.

I wonder if I could just find some twisty stalks to tie together and make them look like hearts, cheaper than buying the ready-made heart stalks.


With that being said, here are some more favors and centerpieces that I found:


So sweet!

I try to like them straight or curly, but can't help but love the hearts the best!

So after all of this research I just learned that there are several different kinds of bamboo...Some have leaves and some have flowers.


This is called Lotus Bamboo
