We’ve all been to a baby shower before… if not dozens of them. Baby gifts are adorable, but lets be honest watching the mom-to-be open a zillion onsies and rattles for 3 hours straight can be a bit repetitive to say the least. I have a solution. Shake up the gift opening at the next shower you attend by giving a unique, adorable and memorable baby gift. Give a baby bouquet made up of adorable baby items. Best of all give an individualized baby bouquet you made yourself instead paying a bunch of money for a one-size-fits-all-baby-bouquet ordered from some random online store.
If you buy eco-friendly gifts to go in your baby bouquet and use a second hand metal bucket, flower pot or basket you can give a great green-minded baby shower gift. Also on the green front a bunch of these bouquets spread throughout a baby shower make for not only great gifts but colorful and adorable earth friendly decoration!
Adorable right? Want to know how to create your own? Just watch the video below and you are on your way to wowing the crowd and the mom-to-be at the next baby shower you attend without spending a fortune to pay an store for making it.
The sky is the limit when making baby bouquets but because I know you are curious I have a few examples for you.
Bibs, nursing covers, spoons and more…
Cloth diapers, cloth wash cloths and wet bags…
Outfits and matching blankets, socks, and bibs…
Now the next time you receive a baby shower invitation you can get creative, have fun and show up with the most Oohed and Ahhed gift at the party!

Super cute idea! And so crafty of you 🙂
Wow! That is totally a great idea.
Awesome! These look great. Is this what you are whipping up for Heather?
Thanks! I’d like to.
Baby showers can be really difficult for people who have experienced (or are in the throes of) infertility. Your ideas make the prospect of attending just a little bit easier.
What a super cute idea!!
And a great tutorial.
P.S. I love these last two tutorial baby shower type posts from you. These are 100% Catherine and something you do very well. Keep up the good work and have a great time at the Type A Conference next week. You’ll have to tell me what you think of Asheville, NC too. It isn’t far from my dad and I’ve heard it is beautiful!
Such a cute idea! I’m definitely going to have to remember this one for the next baby shower I go to.
