If I can swing it, I think I would very much like to start giving out favors this year at TRF :)

I too had never heard of these before.  I am definatly going to make a few.
Merry meet to all, Blessed Be and Amen

I also wonder if at some fairs it's been more of a participant's thing vs a playtron thing, or verse visa.

Me too, I think it's a brilliant idea and I shall try it out there as well this season :)

We'll have to exchange favors, then :)

I have mine on a suede leather brag rag. Tricky to put favors onto, but made by a dear friend

I agree this might be regional . . . or perhaps they were only pretending to like me in Florida and savin' the favors for somebody else . . . but howe'er it is, I thank those who bravely asked and kindly answered about the etiquette!

I just bought bead wire and sparklies so I could offer friendship tokens at my new home faire this season. I'd better get beading, get busy, and quit typing!

I have finally started making favors (after years of saying I was going to) should have enough ready to hand out at TRF this year!! Now...to make a better brag rag...

I knew about favors, but I didn't know anyone well enough to trade with.  With Rendvouz, the Pink Pirate made a bunch.  We make special ones for special friends, but  we make nice general one's. 
It is a token of friendship to someone.
Heh, the pirate got the bug to make more and better one's for TRF this year. Got a great deal on the buttons this past weekend.  :)
It is kind of strange watching your personal history become costume.

I've gotten LOTS of favors over the years.

I made a nice long band of fabric no bigger than a belt width that I can attach to my belt with all the favors pinned on.

Thanks Tink...I just had so many beads around....was nice to see them put to good use.  And was even better to keep my hands and mind busy, it's been too long.

Very lovely, Arianwyn.  :)  I hope there will be one for me, should I chance to make it up to one of the Faire's you attend, someday...
