Do-It-Yourself Wedding Projects
These coaster table cards, designed by one of our readers, Katherine, are just too cute. Featuring her Dad’s famous gin and tonic recipe and inspired by an article she saw in Martha Stewart, they are the perfect personalized favor to leave for your guests…
Instructions for the Coaster Favors from Katherine…
I designed the coaster in Microsoft Word, converted it to a PDF file and sent it off to For Your Party. They were great to work with and we had our coasters in a few weeks.
I finall found the correct sized glassine envelopes (4×4) and at Paper Presentation. I ordered the rubber stamps from Impress Rubber Stamps and got the ink at Michael’s. The labels came from Paper Source. (materials picture)
I put four coasters in each envelope, hand wrote out all of the guest names on the labels and then stamped their table number onto the label. I re-created one and accidentally screwed up the R in my last name, so the finished product looked neater. (finished picture)
