Add these mini cornucopia favors to your upcoming fall festivities. They would make great favors or gifts for your guests!Aren’t they fabulous?  Keep in mind that you can use so many different supplies for making the cornucopias — like thin wood, caning, cork, etc.  Let’s take a look at how you can pull this craft together.

Supplies for Cornucopia Favors:

Paper or EasyLiner*of choice (similiar)
Scissors
X-ACTO Knife (or blade of choice)
Healing mat
Ruler
Brown Ribbon (or color of choice)
Glue/Glue Gun

*I purchased my EasyLiner in-store at The Container Store.

Step One:
The first thing you’ll want to do is create a template.  You can do this with an X-ACTO knife and cutting mat or scissors.  Obviously if you use a blade and ruler, your lines will most likely be a little cleaner/straighter.  Totally up to you.  Take an 8-1/2″ x 11″ sheet of paper and cut it to 7-1/4″ wide by 5-1/4″ high.  You’ll then want to cut off the corners at an approximate 45 degree angle.

Pssst:  Or you can download this cornucopia template that I created for you.

Step Two:
Now trace that template onto your paper and/or EasyLiner  of choice.   Cut them out and roll the surface into a cone shape.

Step Three:
Once you’ve rolled each of them into the shapes of the cone, use a fast drying glue or a dot of hot glue to hold them in place and tie a ribbon around it and knot.  Line with decorative tissue paper if you’d like — and your done!
