Baby Shower favors can get expensive rather quickly if you have a lot of attendees, but here is a wonderful collection of inexpensive do it yourself baby shower ideas for boys, girls as well as gender neutral (for those who want to be surprised the day of the birth!)
Ready to Pop! These can be done in pink, blue, green or yellow and still be completely adorable!
Animal Crackers- These little morsels are a staple food item in a house with babies and toddlers and make an adorable, yet tasty party favor treat. Attach a cute tag that says, “Animal crackers just for you, elephants and friends from the zoo”
Ombre Alphabet Bookmarks
Pink or Blue Candles wrapped with tissue paper and tied with curling ribbon, affix a printable sticker mailing label with some little polka dots or stripes.
Cut out a cute circle frame out of heavy duty white cardstock, then use a glue gun to adorn the frame with with colorful buttons. Send them home with each guest, when the baby arrives, send a photo of the little bundle of joy! These could have magnets attached to the backs for display on the refrigerator as well.
Cocktail Shaker of Goodies- Just because the mom to be can’t enjoy a cocktail doesn’t mean the guests can’t celebrate!
Cute and inexpensive to put together for a smaller group of friends.
If you have a green thumb and some succulents that need to be transplanted, creating these adorable little planters would be quite easy to put together and offer each guest a living reminder of the wonderful party.
Slip some silk flowers into a bottle of hand sanitizer or liquid gel hand soap and affix a cute gender neutral thank you tag for another wonderful gift!
