Now for my DIY stenciled favor bags. Planning a wedding? These favor bags are super simple and may be customized to your theme. I have a super simple secret for stenciling these quickly — ink! Yep ink gets the job done fast and dries in a flash. I actually came up with five different DIY stenciled favor bags.
After I stenciled a few different favor bags, I thought about different way you could close them to get different looks. I came up with five different looks to choose from. My first favor bag uses a stencil that is a series of circles.
I held this one closed with a clothespin. This clothespin actually has a piece of scrapbook paper that I used Mod Podge to adhere to the top. You can also use glitter or paint on clothespins for a different look.
My next favor bag has a branch stencil that I just loved for a slightly rustic look.
My next bag has a lovely frame stencil and I used a lavender ink.
Again I used the two punched holes method of closing but this time threaded in ribbon. Just using different materials can give a completely different look.
Next up is a fleur de lis stenciled on a white bag.
I actually used washi tape to close this bag. I love this sheet music washi tape.
This time I bunched the bag closed with a wide ribbon. Loving that bright pink!

Stamps are easier and faster than stencils. The company has some that are the size of the circles. You can even stamp in different colors. I have even used bags I stamped as gift wrap.
