    Hi there

    I was wondering if anyone could help me please. I am having a shabby chic themed wedding and I am looking for some unusual wedding favours to fit in with the theme. I am not looking to buy anything expensive as I am on quite a tight budget. If anyone has any recommendations please suggest :)

    I love the birdseed hearts idea! Where are they from?

    We're doing the wedding date on wooden hearts, they're quite cheap on the bay and they can even double up as place cards if you're having a sit down meal x

    Infused sugar is flavored sugar. It's fun to use in baking, rimming cocktail glasses, in tea, on fruit - pretty much anything you would use normal sugar for.
    Some ideas might be vanilla bean pods, cinnamon sticks, crystallized ginger, espresso beans, citrus peel/zest (let dry overnight before using), lavender, rose petals/rosehips, mint, star anise, cardamon... the options are endless.
    To make it you layer as much or as little of whatever you're infusing with sugar. Keep it in an air tight container for at least a week & viola infused sugar!
