Baby shower craft ideas...Let's have some fun!

You can use Baby shower craft ideas to add excitement to your party. They are not only fun to do, but they can save you a lot of money.

Here is a list of DIY ideas that you can use for making gifts and party favors, or as fun activities for your guests.

With all of these baby shower craft ideas, you can find everything you’ll need at a craft store, dollar store, and department stores (in the baby section).

Let’s get started…

Diaper cake – As with many craft ideas, the diaper cake can be used as both a centerpiece and a gift. This page has step-by-step instructions for making your own.

Baby sock roses – Sock roses are easy to make and unlike the real thing, their beauty will never fade! The mom-to-be can keep this nice floral arrangement as is, or she can use the socks to keep those 10 little toes warm. Visit this page for step-by-step instructions.

Scrapbooking – Do you want some baby shower craft ideas to put inside the keepsake box? This is the perfect one. Visit this page for some unique scrapbooking ideas.

Baby bottle favors - Learn how to make a cute party favor for your guests. It's a creative favor idea that's actually two gifts in one.

Baby soaps – What could be cuter than soap in the shape of a baby bottle or booties? You make soaps in any baby shape. All you have to do is melt a bar of handmade soap in a pot. Keep a close eye on the pot and remove it from the heat as soon as it melts. Then, just pour your liquid soap in a mold and let it sit until completely cooled.

Baby keepsake box – Every new mom needs a cute decorated box for her baby’s keepsakes. You can buy a plain wooden box from any craft store, and let your imagination run wild with paints, stickers, glitter, jewels, and anything else you can think of.

Gift baskets – Your possibilities are endless here. You can make baskets for baby clothing, feeding supplies, baby safety, toys, or stuff for the mom-to-be. And they are easy to assemble.
Let’s take the feeding basket for example. Just buy lots of jars of baby food, bibs, bottles, nipples, etc, and arrange them neatly in a basket. For an extra touch, place a baby blanket at the bottom. Wrap your basket with cellophane and use a ribbon or bow to hold it in place.

Decorated cookie favors – Here’s a great idea for baby shower crafts and favors. Before the shower, bake a few dozen sugar cookies. Round cookies will be fine, but shaped ones will work even better. You can find cookie cutters at a dollar or craft store.
Have different color icings on hand, and let your guests decorate the cookies. You can even make a contest out of it. And remember, take pictures of the cookies before you eat them!

As you can see, there are tons of baby shower craft ideas that you can use to make your party extra special. With any of these ideas, your guests will have a chance to participate and interact with each other, and your guest of honor will appreciate the handmade work.
