When flowers from the garden are in abundance, I love incorporating them into petite bouquets which serve not only as place cards for our guests, but also as gifts to bring home at the end of the evening.
I love white ink on kraft colored card stock. If you're happy with your handwriting skills, you can simply cut a tag from your cardstock and write the guests names on it. For those who prefer to use their computer, simply insert a box with the colored background you prefer (in this case kraft color), insert a text box with your guest's name, change the font color to white, and print. From there you can proceed with cutting your tags out.
Punch a whole through the end of the tag and attach a bit of jute string, or ribbon, and tuck the ends into the bouquet.
I look for end of season sales, or clearance items throughout the year, to stock up on little vases for the bouquets. Tea light candle holders also work great and are an inexpensive alternative.
