Wow. I think I just found the wedding favors for my cousin's wedding this coming January 2017. I'm sure their guests will love this. I'm just gonna make the crochet sachet then maybe just ask them to fill it with whatever the fancy. Maybe scented potpourri, candies or soap...whatever. Thanks for this. I've just pinned it. Thanks.
