Re: Please help!!! Shower favors

For my SIL's we went with her theme of rubber duckies, and gave out rubber ducky keychains.

For mine, my mom has light blue tea/cofee cups with a tea bag personalized ( with a baby is brewing) , blue baby footprint sugar cubes and a blue cookie inside and a chocolate covered spoon all wrapped up.

I Like personalized M & M's as an idea


Baby cookies....you can find them online

Re: Please help!!! Shower favors

as a guest to many showers, weddings and so on, i've always disliked recieving picture frames, figurines, almondines, etx.. or anything with their names and / or dates on it. however special the day is i normally toss em away. call me someone who is not sentimental but there's plenty of ppl like me out there.

i like edible stuff. except for the almondine stuff. am i the only one, but they're hard as hell to eat. anyway, how's about nicely boxed cupcakes? good luck w your search.

We did edible favors at my shower.

I went to a very baby shower at a tea house. They gave out tea plates & tea bags along with a tag about a baby brewing. I thought it was very creative.

Re: Please help!!! Shower favors

My MIL is doing chocolates for my shower.

I always liked the idea of giving out a jar of Bonne Maman jam/preserves.

It means "good mother" in french and the preserves are delicious - DH and I have like 8 different kinds in our fridge at any given day.

A large jar will cost around $3-4 dollars. A small jar will cost a little less than a dollar. They are rustic looking with red and white checked lids and the label looks like it was hand written (it's not, but it looks that way)

Re: Please help!!! Shower favors

For my sisters shower I got rubber ducks, a bar of soap from bath and body, a small bottle of lotion and a body puff tied them all together and had a tag coming off the side saying from xxx's shower to your's.

I bought the ducks online for like $.50 cents each and the bobdy puffs for like 25 or 30 cents each.

I like this idea for my friend's wedding shower she gave us shower gels and a loofah from BAth and Body works with a cute message about how we showered her with gifts and now we can shower ourselves...something to that effect
