Baby gift / baby shower gift? need new ideas?
my girlfriend bought a bunch of cloths for my daughter and put them on a cloths line with cloths pins and then laid them in a tall hamper with a note on the end of the line that said "pull slowly" It was amazing! She went way over board and the line stretched about 50 feet long. It was the hit of our shower. So our gift was a cute pink hamper and a ton of cloths. I am not a fan of the diaper cakes because we didn't like the diapers and I ended up not using them at all.
Reply:I'm not sure what a nappy cake is, but at my shower I got a diaper cake. It had three layers, each with a different size diaper. The diapers were laid sideways and sorta spiraled around each other. Then it was tied with decorative ribbon.





It was really cool and everyone "oohed" and "aahed."
Reply:As a parent of 2 babies, anything you can make with diapers, wipes and formula is the best gift. Sorry I can't be more help, but those were the things I likes getting the best.
Reply:At my baby shower, one of my aunt's made a dreamcatcher and moccasins for my daughter. I have to say it was my absolute favorite gift (I plan on putting them in a framed box now that my daughter is too big to fit in her little shoes)!





What about trying to bake cakes/snacks, or seeing what the expecting mother may have up on her registry?





I wish I had better ideas, but I'm all out atm.
