What you'll make
Each favor is a small kraft coin envelope that you print at home with your names and date, fill with about 1 gram of wildflower seeds and close with a round sticker. Bought in bulk, the envelope, seeds and sticker cost about 12 cents per guest, while personalized packets from a seed company start around $2.39 each. Seeds keep for a year in a cool, dry place, so you can make all of them months ahead.
