Celebrating the arrival of a new baby can be the happiest time in a couple’s life. A couple of months before the baby’s arrival, expectant parents often invite their friends and family to a baby shower in order to celebrate their happiness and bless the new baby with gifts. It is polite, and even expected, to hand out baby shower favors as a way to say “thank you” to those who have come to share your happiness. Here are some new and unique baby shower favor ideas that are sure to make an impression:
Edible Favors
You have probably run into edible favors at baby showers before, but the new trend is to make an impression with your favors. These days, edible favors are not only tasty treats but they are favors that your guests will love to look at as well. Try personalizing your edible favors, like candy with cute sayings or with the expectant mom’s name and date of the shower. You can also get personalized drink party favors, like hot cocoa, coffee, tea, and even cosmopolitans! Popcorn favors are a nice treat too. Personalized ready-to-pop popcorn bags are a trendy and fun baby shower favor that is sure to pop at your shower!
Practical Favors
If you aren’t into edible favors, you may be more pragmatic and practical and will like favors that are useful and innovative. You guest will appreciate these thoughtful gifts long after the event. You can find gorgeous bath and spa favors to hand out at your shower, something that everyone will enjoy. Kitchen favors like cookie cutters, pizza cutters, bottle openers, salt and pepper shakers are conventional, useful and very much appreciated.
Budget Favors
If you are on a tight budget, there are still favors that you can give without spending a fortune. Budget friendly favors include personalized candies, take home cake boxes, personalized treat bags with cookies, personalized glass bottles and mini galvanized pails- the possibilities are endless!
