favors? Then why don’t you just make the party favors yourself.

then fill it up with an assortment of goodies like candies and chocolates. After filling
the items, you could tie cute little ribbons around them. The items would prove to
be useful. Some of the guests may even give them back after a few weeks.
2. If you bake then you can prepare cookies (choco chip, butter, sugar, oatmeal,
etc.) in the form of baby bottles, baby rattles. Babies and other baby related shapes.

3. As you probably already know, candles are a big bit among women. That why

scented votive candles. These candles are usually sold in sets to make them
cheaper. Then decorate the candles with ribbons. Colors of course will depend on
your personal taste or to the theme of your baby shower. Of course it would usually
be blue if the baby is a boy and pink if the baby is a girl. The candles smell great
and they would even look great when they are wrapped. Candles are an ideal party
favor for any occasion since they mix very well with any theme.

pot. Graft a stem on some plant and plant them into the pot. This type of party
