Default Baby Shower Favors???

Hi! Does anyone have any ideas for easy baby shower favors? I have a girlfriend who has to do 50 of them for a December Baby shower?

We just started doing 75 for my sis-in-law's shower. We're using the jumbo wash day wheel along the bottom of one of those potpourri sachet envelope along with a pink & white ribbon and a tag that says baby shower. I'll try to post a copy when we get them colored in. Good luck!

Default Baby shower favors

I've used the sweet feet wheel, rolled on address labels and then covered Hershey nuggets . ( one sheet of 30 labels = 1 bag of Hershey Nuggets) It's real quick . Than place a few in a small bag and decorate a topper that matches your theme. I'll look and see if I have any left from my shower and scan a photo.

Good luck.

Default Picture of favor

I couldn't find the baby shower one I was telling you about but I did find another sample.
I've done this at workshops.


It's a little dark but I think you get the idea.

For my sister's baby shower, we used the "baby head" stamp from Year Round Cheer on votive candles. We then wrapped the candles in white tulle and tied with an apple green ribbon (she didn't know the sex of the baby)-her nursery color.

I have started throwing baby showers, where all the guests make a page for the mother's baby album. I buy the album and they fill it. Its a huge hit with moms and guests alike!

Default baby shower

How about making baby blocks!
The 2x2 boxes are cute as baby blocks. Your use a square punch to make a plain background (border) in shower colors, then layer a kraft or white square on top. The top layer can be white or kraft (depends on the box color/shower colors). Then emboss letters on it in your favorite shower color. You can spell baby around the sides and put the last name initial on the top.
Fill inside with chocolates (matching color Hershey kisses/hugs look great).
"Stack" them on the cake table and you are good to go!

I like alphabet attitude lower or upper for this project, but any large alphabet works!
