Escort Card Holder/Favor Possibility

Originally I wanted some kind of picture frame as the escort card holder. I thought it would be nice to have the escort card holder double as a favor (whether that be the only favor or just an additional favor.) I also thought a picture frame would be cute since we might have a photo booth at the reception too.

I have been trying to find some really cheap mini frames that I could some how decorate to match the theme. Either by wrapping the borders with my fabric or just adding a hot pink flower or something.

But then I came across these:

They are kind of cute, right?

They are definitely escort card holders AND favors.

AND I can get black ones for the guys and pink ones for the girls...And with about 150 of these babies on the escort card table, I think it would make a pretty black and pink and flowery scene.

Of course I don't know what flower to put in the 'vase' (which is actually glass, and not plastic like I thought it was!) I wonder if I can put a tiny bamboo stalk in each 'vase'...Then it can match my {possible}bamboo centerpieces.

Of course, flowers die...Thus the guests will have to throw out their favor eventually...But how long does everyone keep the little knick-knack favors that sit and collect dust anyway?

Of course if we do bamboo, we should probably tie a little note to each vile with instructions for lucky bamboo care...Which can also double as assistance for anyone who takes home the {possible} bamboo centerpiece...Since I was worried people wouldn't know how to care for it (Granted, they could always just Google it.)

So I see that the test tube vase comes with the card holder...But the cards probably don't come with...Which is fine.

Also, on further inspection, the patterns to chose from (which is only on the inside anyway) are: orange chain link, mocha birds, passion pink damask, silver damask, lime slice birds, red burst damask, pretty-n-pink damask, black & white birds, and gold damask.

So I can always get the hot pink damask and the black birds and hope that no one notices the birds. OR I can just get all pink and make the escort cards have my black and white damask pattern with hot pink writing for their names and table numbers.
