Baby Shower Favor Ideas Your Guests Will Love

Baby Shower Favors are a nice way to thank your guests for participating in the baby shower. Depending upon your particular culture or the region of country that you live in, baby shower favors may or may not be popular. For instance, growing up in southern Louisiana, I've never received a party favor from a baby shower.

There are no rules when it comes to baby shower party favors. Be creative and try to match the theme or mood of the baby shower if you can. Favors can be fun, frivolous, expensive, elegant, practical, or delicious. It's whatever you decide.

The favors listed below are nice by themselves, but you can always dress them up with a little blue and pink bow, lace, tulle, or note card to say "Thank You."

Here's a great tip: Use any of these baby shower favor ideas as prizes for the winners of your baby shower games.

Where to Find Baby Shower Favors

Baby shower favors can be made, bought, or donated (from local restaurants or shops).

Many baby shower favors can be easily made, such as wrapping candy or potpourri in tulle or buying small baskets and filling them with items.

If you're on a budget, buy items in bulk from wholesale clubs. If you're not very creative, learn how to make bows from a local florist. If all else fails, you'll just have to buy the favors, which isn't a bad thing, since there are so many to choose from in all price ranges.

Shopping for your favors is pretty easy, since you'll find baby shower favors just about anywhere:

• Gift shops
• Party supply stores
• Dollar stores/discount stores
• Craft stores
• Fabric stores
• Floral stores
• Stationery stores
• Department stores
• Toy stores
• Gourmet food shops
• Chocolate or Candy stores
• Wholesale club stores
