Table Favor Ideas

A few months ago, I attended the California Dreamin' Writers' Conference. The picture on the left is historical romance author Sarah MacLean giving the keynote speech. 


During the conference, I participated in a Barbara Vey reader event. There were two authors at each table and we were asked to provide table favors for the readers who were sitting with us.

My favor was a metal tin that included my latest release, The Secret Marriage Pact, gold tipped pencils to inspire creative writing, a glittery clothespin to help the participants keep all those bookmarks organized, and a net bag of M&M's because you have to have chocolate. Below, is a picture of how my tin looked on the table.

Before the event began, I went around and photographed some of the other authors' table favors. Below are pictures to help inspire you. Enjoy!

Striking bags and fun chalk board name tags on the bud vases.


These flip flop bags are adorable.

Tanya Stowe had a cute canvas bag with her book cover on it.

Sadly, it isn't in focus but this is an evidence bag. Very cute for a romantic suspense author.
