  1. Cut tulle into 9" circles or use the 9" pre-cut tulle circles.
  2. Cut ribbon into about 6" sections.
  3. Place a small handful of wildflower seeds in the center of each tulle circle.
  4. Gather the edges of the tulle then twist the tulle, secure the twist area with a clothespin.
  5. Then place you favor gift tags on a section of ribbon, and use the ribbon sections to close the tulle favor with a bow.
  6. Place the tulle favors inside the tiny Terra Cotta pots.
Tip: If you going to paint your Terra Cotta pots make sure that you do this a few days before you place the favors in the pots, so they have time to dry. Adding color and decorating your homemade wedding favor will give them a personal touch.
