Milk + Cookie Favor Printables. I am so excited to welcome my next guest blogger, the lovely Kristen of Paper Crave.
Paper Crave is one of my favorite blogs, a treasure trove of inspiration dedicated to all things paper and stationery. (Appropriate for National Stationery Show week, no?) Kristen is here with an amazing DIY project and, lucky for you, she’s offering up her amazing designs as free downloads for The Sweetest Occasion readers! Thanks, Kristen! A little milk and cookies, anyone? [Tip: Wrap baked goods in oven parchment or waxed paper before placing in the favor boxes so any butter or oil in the treats won't leak onto the box.] Additional decorating ideas: Use the recipe report card envelopes as place cards for each guest by adding labels with their names to the front.
Use bowls of apples or bouquets of freshly sharpened pencils (for adult parties, where pointy things aren’t an issue) to create table centerpieces.
