Need party favor ideas

We are giving my mom a 75th bday party. I was thinking of having some sort of favor on each placesetting or something by the door as people leave to just grab and go. Any ideas? or should I just bag the idea?

 

Re: Need party favor ideas

  • Generally people suggest something edible.  If there is something your mom is known for that you can tie in that would also be nice- if she's into flowers/gardening maybe a seed packet or gloves.  My favorite non-edible was a deck of playing cards so if she's into cards that could also be a thought.
  • Chocolate covered pretzels.  Throw a couple in a bag with a nice ribbon.  They are cheap, easy to make, look great, and taste great.  People always seem to like them.

  • Sometimes people do specially decorated cookies too.

     Although I really like the idea of the seed packet. My mom is really into flowers/gardening, so if I ever throw a party for her I'd do that!

  • Food.  Seeds would be cute, but they would go right in the trash. 
  • I just used this for a baby shower favor and they were a huge hit. They have a ton of different themes, so you could definitely find one appropriate for your mom's party. Wilton sells the molds online, but you can also buy them at Michael's (they do seem to have a much bigger selection online however).
