If you aren’t a crafty person the idea of making homemade baby shower favors might be a bit daunting but don’t worry as you don’t necessarily have to start from scratch. It is very easy to make some absolutely gorgeous homemade baby shower favors just by using a few things you can find at any craft or discount store.

Why not consider sending each guest home with a beautiful votive candle. You can buy these candles in bulk and then get special wax stickers with which to decorate the candles. These stickers can range in theme from baby items to floral or holiday images. Another great way to decorate a candle is to wrap it in netting and tie a ribbon around the top. Not only are these homemade baby shower favors a great hit with guests, they also look very pretty sitting on the table next to a guest’s plate.

Another partly homemade baby shower favor you can create is buying simple photo frames that you can source from any discount store or you can buy in bulk at craft shops. You can cover these frames with a range of stickers. You can paint them or even glue fabric on the frames. After the baby is born why not send a photo of the newborn to the girls who have one of your photo frames, this way they get a memento of the occasion.

Edible Homemade Baby Shower Favors

It is also fun to surprise guests with edible homemade baby shower favors. For example you can bake sugar cookies in the shape of rattles, diapers, bottles and toys and decorate them with a pink and/or blue icing. You can even write the guest’s names on the cookies and use them as place markers on your tables.

If you are not the baking type then there are plenty of cookie mixes and even candy kits you can buy at your local supermarket which make baking delicious delicacies a breeze. Don’t forget presentation is just as important as the taste, so take the time to wrap up your edible favors in pretty colored papers and ribbons.
