Mini Jute Potpourri Bag Favor*
Enrich your surroundings with this aromatic potpourri bag.
The next time you are in need of a gift for a table full of guests, charm them with a Mini Jute Potpourri Bag Favor. It is perfect for a baby or bridal shower, or as a favor for your shore wedding, and this little starfish and ribbon adorned bag will have your guests ready to relax the moment you add your favorite scented potpourri or sweets. The bag does the work of presentation; you decide what it carries.
It is a miniature tote bag made of natural fibers, with the loose weave and honest color of jute, and it comes decorated with a band of ribbon across the front. A starfish adds the call of the ocean, which is why these turn up at beach and shore weddings more than anywhere else, and why they look right on a table of driftwood, sand and hurricane lanterns. The open top means guests can see what is inside without opening anything, so a handful of lavender potpourri or wrapped candy is doing double duty as decoration until it leaves with them.
With optional tag personalization, the bag is made unique to your particular occasion: a tag carries your names, your date or a short line of thanks, tied at the handle so every guest reads it before they reach inside. It is the difference between a pretty bag and a favor that names the day it came from. Your guests will be ready to kick back with their feet up for some relaxation before the reception is even over.
The guests will have a great treat to take home. Choose your quantity above, add your tag wording if you want it, and fill each bag with the scent or the sweets that suit your day.

Which one should I choose
A beach table usually needs three different things, and it helps to know which of these does which job.
| Mini Jute Potpourri Bag Favor | Choose this as the favor guests take home, filled with potpourri or sweets and tagged with your names and date. |
|---|---|
| Mini Adirondack Chair Place Card Holder | Choose this when the job is seating rather than gifting, guiding everyone to their place at the table. |
| A plain organza favor bag | Choose this when the event is not coastal and the starfish and jute weave would not match the rest of the room. |
For a shore wedding, the jute bag is the favor and the place card holder is the signpost; most couples end up using both.
