Are you seeking inspiration for homemade baby shower gifts?

When you're looking for great ideas for homemade baby shower presents, you might be wondering if it's really a good idea to make a gift for a baby shower.

Many people worry that when a gift is "homemade", it will look cheap or silly. You should know that this isn't the case at all. With some good planning and consideration, you can make a baby shower gift that the mommy to be will treasure for years to come.

Focus on your talents

Before you decide on a homemade baby shower gift, you should consider your talents. Can you sew? Know how to knit or crochet? Are you a great painter? Knowing what it is that you can do can help you to make some really fabulous things for the baby and mommy to be.

Once you consider what you're good at, it should be easier to find great ideas for baby shower gifts that can really be used. You want to make something that the mommy to be can use for the baby or as a decoration. With this in mind, it might be time to start looking for some great ideas.

Ideas you might like

Before you go looking all over the place for homemade baby shower gift ideas, why not check out some of these really cute ideas to get you started? They range from hard to simple, but they are all adorable and will all be appreciated.

  • Know how to crochet? Consider a crochet hooded bear baby blanket. This project will take as long as you want it to. So, if you have the time to work diligently, you might find that you can get it done in a week or so, but it can take up to a month or more, depending on your time frame.

  • Are you good with fabric paints? Consider making something special of plain white onesies or t-shirts. One popular theme is the rubber duckie, but you can personalize depending on the theme of the mommy to be. Onesies and long or short t-shirts are easy to decorate in many ways, and you can even tie dye them, just be sure to wash them in baby safe detergent when you're done.

  • Need more ideas for homemade baby shower gifts? Hand painted decorations such as terra cotta rocking horses offer an adorable personal touch to any room. You can fill it with baby washcloths, soaps and lotions, or add a plant to the pot for a natural scent.

  • If you know how to knit, it might be a good idea to make an afghan. This will take as much time as you let it take, but add an extra flare and make one afghan for mommy during those late nights and one for baby to use anytime a little extra warmth is needed. Yes, it might seem a little cheesy, but this is one homemade baby shower gift that is used over and over again. Make sure to use soft, festive yearns that match the theme for the baby and these blankets will last for years to come.

  • When you're looking for homemade baby shower gifts that are a little something extra, but are easy too, consider making a sock baby or a stuffed owl. These are both simple projects that you can make in little or no time and will be enjoyed by mommy and baby for a long time.

If you'd like to make homemade baby shower gifts, don't be afraid that they will look "cheap" or silly. For many people, giving something homemade adds a personal touch that can be treasured for years and years to come.

Have fun, and all the best!
