FAQ'S ABOUT PLANTABLE SHAPES AND PLANTING PLANTABLE PAPER
Website Browsing Tip: When looking at a product on a main page, CLICK TO ENLARGE, which takes you to the next page with the description of the product. Be sure to CLICK AGAIN TO ENLARGE, to get to the screen that may give you multiple views and make the product BIG for you so you can examine it more carefully.
HOW TO PICK THE PAPER COLOR FOR YOUR SHAPE: On the Home page, in the Navigation bar, scroll down and click on the Seed Paper Sheet Section and look for the Solid Colors (Rainbow colors) and the GRN selections. We have colors and also white papers with different colored paper specs, very pretty. If you choose a shape with a SYM part number know that you will be charged extra for using that paper (it is beautiful, comes in many flavors but is expensive).
DEFINITION OF A PLANTABLE SHAPE: A plantable shape is made from biodegradable, eco-friendly paper that is embedded with seeds. The paper is cut either by the manufacturer or Tender Seed Company into many fun and unique shapes to help make a favor or seed gift that fits your occasion. I have 2-3 suppliers of the paper so be sure to see the medium weight and the heavy weight selections. Seeds can NOT be altered in these choices and seeds are listed in each description.
DEFINITION OF A FULLY DECORATED PLANTABLE SHAPE FAVOR : Plantable shape has been decorated to your specifications (I work with you on that) and put into an open topped plastic cello sleeve for a nice presentation.
PLANTABLE SHAPE AND KEEPSAKE CARD DEFINITION: We will help you design a flat card that will relay the message or poem you'd like to present to your guests. We also like to put on the card some pretty pictures (graphics, clip art, your artwork, border) for that card. The reverse of the card is planting instructions. Then we cust the shape out of the plantable paper, decorate it, slip both in an open topped cellophane sleeve. AGAIN, the idea is that your guests get to keep the card for their scrapbook and plant the seeds from the shape.
UNDECORATED SHAPES ONLY DEFINITION: This is exactly what is says, shapes only. We send you the shapes and e-mail you planting instructions and you make your own favor.
OVERLAY & PHOTO SHAPES DEFINITION: Plantable paper sheets are behind the personalized card and attached at the top with a pretty ribbon. Planting instructions and contact info is labeled on the back. The new graphics I just got print beautifully on card stock and sometimes not on seed packets, so I have a wider range of possibilities with this favor. Photos also print well on the card stock memory cards so e-mail me your ideas.
RELIGIOUS OCCASION FAVORS: Fully decorated, created to help Communion Season folks find their favor choices easily.
MINI SHAPE FAVORS: Favors and cards are half size and half the price. Can be personalized or non-personalized so you can write your own message on them. Easy on the budget.
WHAT IS ON THE BACK OF MY CARD OR SEED PACKET? Planting instructions either printed right on the invitation or on a label. Depends on the product.
HOW DO I PLANT THIS SEED PAPER? The trick to all, all seed papers and tapes are to keep the paper moist (not dredged with water or sitting in water or else the seed will rot). Keep moist during sprouting period and then after the seed is up, water regularly. Think of it as a chicken and an egg. That little seed is a living creature and when his shell gets soaked up with water the embryo of the seed says oh, dirt, I'm warm, got water, ok here we go! God made them that way, they have dna to do that I tell my grandson. But if you forget to keep it moist for a long time, that paper shell encases it again and how can he get out now? You see what I mean? Hope that helps.
