How to: Make your own confetti jars

If you're thinking of what to use as cute little wedding favours on your big day, these adorable confetti jars are perfect. They're simply to make, and your guests can use them to throw confetti on the big day!

What you'll need:

• empty clear glass jars with lids
• blackboard labels
• white chalk pen
• natural petal confetti to fill your jars

Step 1

First make sure your mini jars are free from any labels or stickers, and completely clean and dry. If you do need to remove any labels or stickers, soak them in warm soapy water and peel of the labels, then allow to dry. 

Step 2

Start to fill biodegradable confetti petals into the jars, just make sure not to overload the jar, you want the petals to come out with ease afterall. Today we're using our Kaleidoscope confetti mix as it's a combination of pinks, purples and creams so it makes a wonderful impact on those all important confetti shots!

Step 3

Once you've filled your jar with your choice of confetti petals, screw on the lid.

Step 5

Next decide what you want to write on your jars. You could write your initials and the date; the name of each guest you'd like to throw, or even simply instructions for your guests like we have below, 'Throw Confetti'. You can use chalk to write on your labels, but this could rub off, so we opted for a white roller pen.

Step 6

Once you've added your message to your blackboard stickers firmly stick them to your jars and enjoy!

Why not ask your ushers to hand one of these out with your order of service so your guests will be ready to throw after the ceremony? Or have them dotted on the wedding tables to throw later in the day.
