Friday Favor of the Day : Chalkboard Favors

Don't you just love the trend with chalkboards? I definitely do and it's so fun - you can use the chalkboards as guest markers and then the guests can take the chalkboard favors home with them and write their own message. Chalkboards are unique and fun way to accessorize your favors and add a decorative touch to your party tables. Looking for another great use for chalkboard wedding favors? If you plan to have a children's table - why not give each child their very own mini chalkboard with chalk and an eraser and let them draw away?
