Baby Shower Favors Ideas
Baby shower favors are little gifts that the guests take home in return for the time and effort they put in attending the shower and a memoir of the fun they had at the shower party. They are very important while organizing a baby shower and have to be planned in advance. This does not necessarily mean that lots of time and money have to be spent on them. These little mementoes leave lasting memories of the baby shower.
While deciding on the shower favors, it is wise to take a look at the guest list and buy something that would appeal to everybody alike, keeping in mind common interests, likes, and dislikes. Something feminine and that celebrates womanhood would be a good idea since the entire occasion has to do with women.
Ready made Favors
Favors can be bought from the market or even made at home. The first thing to be done is to decide on the object. If you are planning to order them from stores, it would be a good idea to do so in advance since it might prove difficult to purchase them all at one go. Some of the things that would be appealing are:
• Perfumed and decorative candles
• Soaps in various shapes like baby ducks, pacifier etc.
• Baby fruit baskets
• Cookie mix, bread mix or cake mix for those interested in baking
• Personalized picture frames
• Perfumes
• Cosmetic items
• Hair care products
• Flowers with vase
• Attractive stationary
• Cookies or anything tasty and of course sweet!
• Books
• Tickets to any social event
Homemade Favors
Favors can be made at home and a personal touch added to it. If you are creative enough, baby shower favors would not be a big problem. There are many options that can be tried like:
• You can make your own rice krispie baby shower favors
• Put together baby bottles filled with chocolates and candies
• Jelly belly favors can be made for girls and boys
• Gift baskets with small items of your choice
If the baby shower has been organized on a theme like a nursery rhyme or cartoon characters (Noddy, Winnie the Pooh, Sesame Street, Stars, Noah’s Ark, etc.), then the baby shower favors which belong to the same theme can be bought. The themed favors are a big hit since they leave a clear memory of the shower long after it is over.
Baby shower favors which are edible are also very popular. Especially if they are sugary, the end of the party will be good and sweet, too. Candies, chocolates, cookies, jelly, etc. are all good options that can be considered. Sometimes, it is fun to make small gift baskets and include an assortment of things already mentioned above. Thus, the guests have real fun going through the contents. Thus the favor is very unique and personal. The idea is to return the fun and joy the guests imparted to you in taking part and sharing your elation.
