We've all seen some Pinterest DIY fails and laughed and admitted that; "It won't happen to me!"
Well, imagine the stress that you will be in a few days before the big event (wedding, baby baptism) with all the preparation work. Now, imagine that on top of that, you'll have to spend hours trying to find and order all the necessary supplies for your favors and wait impatiently to be delivered. Of course, if you have an army of little helpers things might be a little bit brighter but, you'll still have to orchestrate all the process and organize all the participants to get together. Some of them might have some previous experience but, nevertheless, not all of them will be good with their hands. So, you might end up with some fabulous favors and some of them might look like the hedgehog cake above!
OK, OK I can hear you. Why not do them well in advance and not leave them to the last minute..? In case, your favors contain dragées then, they will have to stored in a dry, dark and cool place for the chocolate dragées not to melt. And, if you have small kids you will most probably have to lock them in a safe place, too. You do know how nosy small kids are.
