Best Ideas for Baby Shower Favorites
Although guests should not expect to leave any party or anything, it is always a good idea to give the parting guests a favor. Here are some simple and easy-to-use shower tips for kids to do at home. By doing the kindness yourself, you can not only save money, but handmade gifts can be easily customized to reflect the wishes of the prospective mother and the theme of the shower!
Baby Bottles - Even your local dollar store can be a great place to find kind ideas. Plastic baby bottles can be filled with chocolates, sweets, Jordan almonds, jelly beans, bath beads or bath salt. Tie a ribbon around your neck with a “Thank You” tag with the names of the mother and baby.
Baby Booties - Full of sweets, wrapped chocolates, gum balls, you can tie them up with ribbons and markers, like baby bottles.
Organza or Net Bags - You can find these in the wedding category of many great handmade retailers. Fill with sweets, bath salt, chocolate, etc.
Plastic Bottles or Glass Jars - It is not very difficult to find these types of containers. If you do not see them locally, search online, and you can order in bulk. Fill it with bath salt, bathtub, shower gel or baby powder. You can tie a tag with a beautiful verse about showering as if they were showering the mother you will be!
Cups of Tea - Some children in the shower bought cups of tea and a flower flat and put one flower in each cup to get a good taste. A good place to find unusual tea cups and ends are at local grocery stores and grocery stores. Find some with beautiful flowers painted on the sides. You can also fill cups of tea with candle gel and cookie with another kind of fun treat.
Flower Pots - With a good marker telling the recipient to feed his plant as the new mother will raise her new baby, you can give guests small flower pots and seed packets or clusters of tulips or daffodils to plant and grow other flowers. If you want to do more, decorate a flower pot with acrylic paint or makeup or pictures found in the scrapbooking section of craft shops. You can even get a simple foam stamp to decorate.
Candy Bar Wrappers - Have you ever seen those expensive candy bar wrappers you can order, but why not make your own? These are some of the best gifts you can give your baby when he or she arrives. Just buy a bunch of sweets at your local grocery store like Sam's or Costco and remove one cover to measure wrapper size. Now you have a template. Create a cover using your favorite software and add special details like baby name, date of birth, weight and length and don't forget to add parental names as "producer". For ingredients, try words like “sugar and spices and all the good things,” “love,” “snips, snails, and dog tails.”
There are many ways you can do cheap things that your baby shower guests will love. Even something as simple as a glycerin soap wrapped in a ribbon is a wonderful gift that most people will enjoy. Look for items and deals to really save money, but have an expensive gift look.
Favorite baby showers you make at home are personal gifts that add a nice touch. Not only does it make your guests happy, but it also shows the mother who will be the one that cares about her friends! Have fun making your favorite homemade baby shower!
