A baby shower is an exciting party for parents expecting the arrival of a baby. It is a thrilling experience for the couple to sharing their enthusiasm with friends and family. Baby showers traditionally involve gift giving, and a baby blanket is a smart choice for a gift that will surely be practical and commemorative once the baby arrives.
Why not present the gift with style? Instead of simply have a piece of baby blanket wrapped with ribbons, you could try something more attractive. Why not create a baby shower basket? Preparing this baby shower gift is easy when you have the right tools.
The first thing you would have to do is buy the items you wish to include in the basket. Aside from the soft baby blankets, you might want to include other items such as clothing, bed sheets, bibs, mittens, or hats. If you want the blankets to be the center of attention, settle for three to five pieces of blankets and include shower items like baby soap, baby shampoo, hypoallergenic bubble bath, and baby cologne.
When you are content with the items you want to have in a basket, you can now determine the proper size of the basket and how to arrange your gifts within it. Any kind of container would work, but a basket is a nice sight to behold. Put all the items in the basket and cover it with clear or colored cellophane so the items are visible. Secure the wrapping with a colored bow and your baby gift basket is ready for the baby shower!
