    So I found a template to make teabag envelopes on my craft disc which I thinks pretty cool never heard of them before but was thinking I could also use the same template to make seed packets and give them to our guests. My problem is I dont have a garden so dont have green fingers so was wondering what seeds would I put in im confused can anyone help xx

    Are you having any actual flowers on the day? Or any in particular that grow at your venue? It would be nice to give them some seeds that actually link back to your day xxx

    Or maybe even red roses? As if I remember correctly in Alice in Wonderland the Queen makes her guards paint all the flowers red? xxx

    Edit: They do! I just found this pic of them doing it! lol

    If we was going to give seeds out it would be a daff bulb or Birds of Paradise seeds. But BOP are really hard to grow.

    A mixture of rose seeds would be fab to go with your theme :)

    I would say forget me nots. Easy to grow. Either that or you could just chuck in a mixture of seeds.

    I'm having poppy seeds (for obvious reasons!). They keep for years, don't crush easily, and are dead easy to grow. They'll be seeds from my garden, so may add a few herb seeds or something too. Edible flowers maybe. Haven't decided! Is there anything that means something to you? Colours?

    I was gonna do these but on thinks that his friends will just end up leaving them on the tables... I think men favours are more difficult...
    I'm thinking cos our wedding is rustic of doing different teas in a glass jar with a hessian covered lid like a homemade jam but with tea in x

    We are growing lavender plants for girls and chilli plants for boys. We are growing seeds so there will be a little seedling at the time of the wedding.
