And birthdays! We decided to go super fancy at Abbie&#8217;s most recent birthday and serve tea in fine china and tiny treats on silver platters. Her grandfather even dressed in a tux and pretended to be her butler! We put together this tea cup party favor for her guests. Pretty and practical, it is made from a real tea cup and a pretty flower pen (with chocolate of course&#8230; don&#8217;t forget chocolate!) We found assorted tea cups and saucers at the thrift shop, so all together each favor cost only about $1.50.

Put enough shredded paper into the cup to fill it 3\/4 of the way. Stick the pen into the cup in the center of the paper. If you are giving the pen without a cap, you might want to place a small square of folded tissue paper on the bottom of the cup so that you don&#8217;t write on the cup!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blossomsandposies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/2_tea_cup_favor_pen.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-204\" title=\"Tea Cup Party Favor Pen\" src=\"https:\/\/blossomsandposies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/2_tea_cup_favor_pen.jpg\" alt=\"Tea Cup Party Favor Pen\" width=\"332\" height=\"498\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>2.

Place the cup and saucer in the center of the square of tulle. Gather the tulle together around the &#8220;stem&#8221; of the flower pen. Tie your ribbon snugly in a single square knot. Then slide the name tag onto the ribbon and tie again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blossomsandposies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/4_tea_cup_favor_tulle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-202\" title=\"Tea Cup Party Favor Tulle\" src=\"https:\/\/blossomsandposies.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/4_tea_cup_favor_tulle.jpg\" alt=\"Tea Cup Party Favor Tulle\" width=\"730\" height=\"487\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it!
