Babies Everywhere – Gift Ideas?

Question

Hello everyone,

It seems to be the season to have a baby. So many people I know are pregnant and due within a month or so. Does anyone have any unique ideas for gifts?

My partner came up with the idea of a bath and bedtime kit for babies he heard about through a ‘gift in a box’ website. This is it.

What do you think? Good idea?

Answer 1

I recently discovered diaper cakes.  I thought they were awesome.  I made one myself hella easy mine cost about $100.00 but it doesnt have to be that much.  You can even order them.  Good luck

I'm in the same boat...I've been making nursing covers or baby slings as gifts, and have saved tons of money.  Plus, my friends love having something handmade and unique!  I try to match their colors or nursery theme with the fabrics I choose.

This is my favorite site for gift ideas and baby basket ideas, and patterns...especially if you want to make something really unique for a baby gift.  My hubby has even started going here to get gift ideas for Mother's Day and such :)

They have great gift basket ideas for baby:

and homemade gift ideas.  Not all of the patterns are up yet (annoying) but the ones that are up are really cute:

Sometimes you never know what the person need for the baby and at times, you don't want to get something that someone else is getting for the new born.  I would get her the Arrival Gift Collection Ensemble. "From pretty, practical everyday essentials to adorable infant outfits and toys to pampering selections that take care of mom too."  There is no price amount on it when you give it to her. Just an album of gifts for her to choose from. She just picks the gift, goes online and says that is the one she wants. She pays nothing. Just go to http://ribbon.arcameda.com and type in the search box baby. When you go into an album, click on "View the Gift Collection" to see what the album contains. There are two ways to give them the gift, as an album with a gift card or just as a gift card. If you need any further help, go to my profile to email me.  I have given many of these away and mothers love the selections.
