Baby Shower Party Favors

Kipp's good friend Lea (her maid of honor 3 years ago) is hosting a baby shower for her in a few weeks.  I volunteered to make the party favors and since I'll be in Hawaii until 2 days before the shower I thought I'd better make them ahead of time...here's what I came up with.

Super easy, but cute I think.  I started with 2 cases 

of canning jars (pint size), 2 big bags of cake mix,

a big bag of chocolate chips, yards and yards of

bias tape in polka dot and check/baby blue of course, 

and cute labels with baking instructions I printed on the computer

you might recognize the bias tape...it's 

leftover from the cradle bumpers

my labels say "thanks for coming" &

"and welcoming baby boy batley"

the flip side has baking instructions

for the cupcakes

{bake @ 350 about 18 minutes

1 egg

a bit under 1/2 C water

a bit under 1/4 C oil

yield 6 cupcakes}

I washed all the mason jars in the dishwasher

then poured 1 cup of cake mix in each

next, 1/4 Cup chocolate chips

I punched a hole in each label, threaded the bias tape through it

and tied the "ribbon" around the top of the jar

all 24 party favors are ready to go
