You have picked out an adorable theme, you have compiled the guest list, you have booked the location and secured the date and even sent out the baby shower invites two weeks ahead just like you read in your Baby Showers for Dummies Books. You even got the table arrangements, bouquets and games prepared and set up. But what about your party favors?
Hmm, do you really need them? What are they anyway?
One of the main things to think about when planning for a baby shower is the theme and number of shower favors you are going to hand out to your family and everyone else at your event. This is super easy when you already have a theme in mind for your baby favors, but if you are like everyone else, your probably buy everything at the last minute.
The truth is that, if you can put a thank you note on it, it can count as a good baby shower favor. However, since you only want the best things for your child, and you may be planning this for yourself or a friend, you go out of your way to choose the most adorable designs and the most precious colors ideas. Lets look at some of the things you need to consider:
The Gender of Your Baby
To add to your shower party excitement, your ultrasound scans have arrived! Now you know what color you can base your party. From the invitations to the favors, your colors must be coordinated. You can choose pastel blue or purple for your boy baby shower gifts, and pink or peach for your girl baby shower favors.
Another benefit to knowing the sex of the baby is that it easy for the party to choose the perfect unique baby gifts! If the gender is a boy, you can select a adorable blue piggy banks, a blue chocoloate covered candies or a blue cradle designs and so much more for your baby boy party favors.
Obviously, you can do the same if the mom-to-be is having a girl and just change the color. You can also choose to give something practical, like a mug, a photo frame or a small comb.
Another way to make your special party unique is to choose the appropriate colors hues you will use. Blue variations are countless. You have royal blue, navy blue, periwinkle blue and pastel blue. Pink color variations are also numerous: fuchsia, pastel, soft pink, baby pink and candy pink, to name a few. To make it easier for you to choose a shade, you can simply categorize the many variations into two: pastel of vivid. Pastel colors are unobtrusive and cute, while vivid colors create more excitement.
