DIY | Mulled Spice Favors

Looking for a fun and festive Fall or holiday favor that is sure to make your loved ones smile? Mulled Spice bags are such a creative yet simple favor, anyone can make them! These little bags of Fall goodness smell like heaven and are the yummiest flavor punch you can imagine. Stick one of these bags into a pot of apple cider and I guarantee everyone will want seconds (or thirds!).


Now, here's what you'll need:
- cheese cloth
- scissors
- tags
- twine/jute
- oranges
- spices
- stamps + ink


Ingredients:
- whole cloves
- dried orange peels
- whole allspice
- cinnamon sticks


When filling the pouches I used approximately 5 to 6 small pieces of orange peel, 5 cloves, 5 allspice seeds and 1.5 cinnamon sticks. Feel free to add other ingredients or fill yours to the amount you desire.


And. . .  here's my "Shauna's Secret Apple Cider Spice Pouch." Isn't it darling? I have an upcoming photography event with "apples + apple cider" as the theme so I think these are the perfect favor for the occasion.  I stamped the apple and SVP on my tags but the possibilities are endless with ways you can decorate these little cuties. I can also see these being an adorable personalized touch for your guests at Thanksgiving. Wouldn't they look great on the plates so everyone knows where to sit? I can't wait to see what you guys do with yours! Please do share. :)
