Bridal Shower Favors
I'm throwing a bridal shower for a good friend of mine in May. Although I've attended about 100 bridal showers, this is my first time being in charge of planning one. I've got the menu, games, invites, etc. pretty much wrapped up (I'm a big planner, I get things done early). The only thing I'm a little stuck on is favors. I want something kind of unique and different. All I can find online are the stuff you see at every shower or wedding. The wedding takes place in July and the colors are red and black, but I hadn't really decided on colors/theme for the shower (haven't planned out decorations yet). There will probably be about 15 people at the shower. I would like to make truffles or cookies myself and then add a little something else to the total favor package.
Have you seen any bridal shower favors that you thought were especially cute or unique?
Re: Bridal Shower Favors
I don't have any suggestions, but this blog has some awesome shower theme ideas and decorations.

At my shower the favors were flower seed packets. They were wrapped nicely with a thank you note and a quote that I can't remember. They were a big hit.
The last shower I was at had cookie favors in the shape of a wedding cake with the bride and groom's initials. There were super cute.
I think just truffels or cookies would be fine.
