Easy to make yourself baby shower favors

Do It Yourself Favors

Got a baby shower coming up, either for a friend or for yourself? Make a game out of it beforehand by creating some easy to make yourself baby shower favors. Head to a craft store for ideas. You may discover that the suggestions listed in the magazines there require items that you can easily locate in your home, and there won't even be a need to buy them. On the other hand, if you need to purchase some supplies, you'll be in the right place and can get started immediately. Either way it's a great way to jump start your creative juices. Other easy to make yourself baby shower favors can be found in
your local yarn or knitting store. Go to the store on one of the knitting circle get-together evenings and chat with some of the avid knitters there. I bet they'll have tons of wonderful, simple and adorable crafts for you to put together.

Better yet, take a class yourself and learn the basics if you haven't already. For the shower you can put together baby booties, hats, blankies or scarves. The other mothers will be so touched by your thoughtfulness. And while you're taking a class, why not learn to pamper yourself with a new sweater, scarf or hat? Best of all, knitting can help relax you, which is exactly what every mother to be deserves.

If your guest love sweets, stick to the basics. Homemade brownies, cookies or fudge are always a hit. Place them in plastic wrapping and tie a colorful ribbon around them. Either way your shower is bound to be a hit with favors from the heart.
