Baby Shower Favors – Spring Fling
April 27th, 2010 | by Kacie |
The ideas for baby shower favors for a spring-inspired party theme are endless. Simply look around you and you will easily find inspiration. Flowers for instance, are the epitome of the spring season, and they make pretty baby shower favors for your guests.
Whether they’re bundled up tulips, a grand bouquet of colorful daisies or mum, or a single stemmed rose, flowers make a statement of love, friendship, and appreciation. Tie a small note card to the flowers with the event’s name and the date.
For a more personalized approach, have guests exchange signatures on their note cards. For those willing, they can write down their contact information. The baby shower is a great venue for meeting new people and possibly establishing new friendships, all of you having a common friend – the mom to be.
With this baby shower favor, use a pile of small cards tied to the flowers, like business cards. Flowers may die eventually, but the cards with some personal messages, signatures, names, and/or numbers will remain.
Another idea … you can add … is pressed flower bookmark. Made simply by gathering flowers around your yard and mounting to a nice linen piece of paper.
- Gather flowers around your yard … or purchase flowers at your local florist
- Linen paper … or quality paper of your choice
- Laminate paper … from your local office supply store
- String … the color of your choose
- Collect flower and lay them neatly in a heavy book. Be sure that there is no moisture in the flowers.
- Pay attention to the position you lay the flower … as it will effect the final result. You can place flowers between two sheets of plain white paper … to protect the pages of the book.
- You can place additional books on top to weigh down.
- Leave the flowers untouched for 10 days.
- Remove flowers from book and glue to linen paper.
- Laminate bookmark and attach string.
