Treat Your Guests To Baby Shower Party Favors
Giving a great baby shower is no different than hosting any other event in your home: your guests have to come first. With a baby shower, your good company, hospitality, and food are great, but you can make your baby shower extra special by giving baby shower party favors as a keepsake of the happy occasion.
Low Cost Baby Shower Party Favors
Baby shower party favors need not be extravagant or costly. Simple party favors are welcome and desired - it's the thought that counts.
Edible Baby Shower Party Favors
Baby shower cookies make fun and flavorful baby shower party favors. Make or purchase sugar cookie dough and use cookie cutters to create shapes in baby themes: ducks, teddy bears, babies, baby carriages, and umbrellas (for a shower theme).
A personalized fortune cookie is a creative edible baby shower party favor idea. These look just like ordinary fortune cookies that you get after a meal in a Chinese restaurant, but the messages inside are custom-made for your baby shower theme. Some of the fun messages you can put inside your baby shower fortune cookies are:
The Baby Is Very Lucky
The Baby Is Blessed With Smart Parents
The Baby's Mother Has Beautiful Friends
The Baby Will Become President
Scented Baby Shower Party Favors
Personalized, scented tea light candles are yet another popular baby shower party favors. Before the shower, buy a tea light candle for each guest at the baby shower. Using your best handwriting or your favorite computer font, create a small card that tells the guest to take the candle home and light it, in the new baby's honor, on the evening that they find out the baby has been born. On that night, the new parents can take pride in the fact that their friends and family members all over town are lighting the candles and wishing the new baby well.
Baby Shower Party Favors For Boys Or Girls
If the expectant couple already knows the sex of the baby, you can select pink or blue baby shower party favors, depending on whether it's a boy or girl. Look for guest soaps, rose petals, bath beads, mints, m&ms or other candies in pink or blue.Wrap the items in pink or blue netting and tie in a bundle with a matching ribbon.
If you are not sure of the sex of the baby, or if the mother-to-be is expecting twins or either sex, you can mix and match pink and blue or use pastel shades of yellow, green, and purple for your baby shower party favors.
