FREE Newsletter. Sign Up Now! Fun and easy shower gifts to make! Baby showers are probably my favorite event to attend. They are usually full of love and joy and you get to look at lots of cute baby clothes. I also love to give baby shower gifts. I think it's a lot of fun to put together something special for every new little one.
Sometimes I go and pick out things from a gift registry that I think the mother will enjoy or something that has made my days as a mother easier or more interesting. Though my favorite thing to do is to make something for the new baby. Here are a couple of ideas for quick and easy gifts for mom and baby, regardless of the sex of the baby or the theme of the shower!
Gift Basket
I usually choose a large, hollow item to fill with little things. A diaper pail or an infant bath tub are inexpensive and work very nicely. If you're looking for something smaller, try a bathroom bucket/caddy. It's also great for carrying the baby's small bath items around.
You can stick with the bath theme and fill it with bath items. Here are some examples:
Soap
Lotion
Towels
Rubber Duck (with or without thermometer)
Wash cloths
Brush and Comb
Some people prefer the health and safety approach for this gift. Some ideas for that category include:
Thermometer
First Aid Kit
Electrical Plug Covers
Finger Nail Clippers
Emergency Aid Cards
Child Proofing Book
Door Locks
Diaper Cream
Infant Fever Reducer
I also have days where eceltic is my style. Here are some other gift items that go well in these types of gifts:
Diapers
Rattles
Onsies
Toys
Baby Books
Nursing Pads
Bottles
Bibs
You really don't have to spend very much on these gifts, most are a dollar or two each. You can also find some nice, but inexpensive baby toys at dollar stores everywhere, including bibs!
If you don't have a large hollow tub or bucket you can also do a fancy party bag. Some people choose to individually wrap each gift, while attractive it can take a long time. I always put tissue on the top and let mom sort through as quickly as she likes.
Diaper Cake
This item is for those who are a bit more talented, though with practice it shouldn't be too difficult! The results are a delighful looking "cake" made of diapers and toys.
Items you will need:
Diapers (large pack of disposables or 12 cloth)
Cardboard (Some choose to use a bottle of infant laundry soap.)
Small gifts (rattles, toys, teethers, brush, etc.)
Clear Tape or Rubber Bands
Ribbons
Cake "Topper" (Usually a small stuffed animal, can be left off.)
Directions: Use the cardboard or laundry soap as a base, wrap diapers around it to form a bottom cake "layer."
You can secure the diapers with tape or rubber bands. Start a second "layer" making it smaller than the first. You can do as many layers as you would like, I've only done two, but I have seen three done.
When you're done with that you can take your smaller items and tie them up with ribbon and tuck them into the layers of the diaper folds, making them appear as if they are a part of the cake. If you'd like secure a small stuffed animal on top of the cake as a topper.
This makes a great gift as well as a center piece for a shower. It was a lot of fun to do, but it took two people to make it look right.

Give a Great Christmas Gift this Year A guide by Gracie Houston ,Romantic Adventuress E-mail this guide to a friend Tangerine Dream Buy new : $14.99 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours The Secret Life of Bees Buy new : $9.22 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours Waiting for Teddy Williams Buy new : $16.32 Availability: Usually ships in 24 hours See all products So You'd Like to Give a Great Christmas Present this Year Three coming of age stories I've read recently that really moved me are: 'Tangerine Dream' , by Ken Douglas and Jack Stewart; 'The Secret Life of Bees' , by Sue Monk Kidd and 'Waiting for Teddy Williams' , by Howard Frank Mosher. All three stories stole sleep from me and they'll steal it from you, I just know they will if you give them a chance. They are wonderful books that deserve to be on everybody's bookshelf, Christmas and birthday lists. Really, I can't recommend them highly enough. If you're shopping for mom or dad, daughter or son, sister or brother, significant other or a very good friend, you don't need to look any farther than of these divine books for your gift giving this year. So without out further ado here's a brief summery of this outstanding works. The Best Happiest and Saddest Book I've Ever Read 'Tangerine Dream' , by Ken Douglas and Jack Stewart One can look at Tangerine Dream in a couple of ways. It's a coming of age story, not your typical one though, because it involves two Southern California girls, Haley and Taylor, who have an adventure in New Zealand and wind up falling in love with each other. During the course of their adventure, they decide that they want to buy a sailboat and sail away from the pressures their wealthy family's will put on them when they find out they are gay, and the pressures will be plenty, because one of their father's is a United States Senator and he's running for President. And one can view Tangerine Dream as a Mainstream novel along the lines of 'The Horse Whisperer' or 'The Notebook' . It certainly has it's tragic moments when Taylor's twin dies and the burial is guaranteed to elicit tears. And the ending had me weeping like there was no tomorrow. The story has a nice revenge type element to it as well, when the philandering senator gets his comeuppance. And surprisingly this is happy book, despite the tragedy that happens very near the end, despite the weeping, it still manages to make you feel good. I can't recommend this book highly enough, it's the best happiest and saddest book I've ever read. Simply a Divine Story 'The Secret Life of Bees' , by Sue Monk Kidd I was delighted when THE SECRET LIFE OF BEES was selected as book of the month by my book group. I have heard and read so much about this book and had been meaning to pick it up for the longest time. Let me tell you, it was worth the wait! This is a fantastic and charming story that is written with beauty and grace. It was a pleasure to read from start to finish! As many reviewers have mentioned, the story revolves around Lily Owen in the time of the civil rights movement. Lily is a young white teenager who lost her mother at a young age and is being raised for the most part by her black nanny, Rosaleen. One day while trying to register to vote, Rosaleen crosses paths with some of the town's racists and is forced to flee. Lily sees this as her opportunity to start a new life as well, so the two of them head to Tiburon, South Carolina, a town Lily knows of through her only keepsake of her mother. Rosaleen and Lily are taken in by three women beekeepers and Lily begins to start to understand the world in which she is living. Without ruining the story for those who haven't had a chance to read it, I will skip over the rest of the plot of this superb coming of age story and just say that this beautiful book was incredibly touching and moving. It warmed my heart and I look forward to sharing it with friends and family. Funny, Quirky, Delicious Wonderful Baseball Story 'Waiting for Teddy Williams' , by Howard Frank Mosher "Waiting for Teddy Williams" follows the story of Ethan "E.A." Allen who grows up in Kingdom Common, Vermont, the unofficial capitol of the Red Sox Nation, a town with a baseball bat factory, a town where every radio is tuned to every Sox game. E.A. is homeschooled by his single mother, stripper, hooker, escort, wannabe country singer Gypsy Lee Allen, who teaches him much more than the average boy would learn in school. Her lessons also include batting practice. E.A. has two dreams, one to be a Red Sox hero and two, he wants to find his father, who his mother refers to as Mr. Gone and Long Forgotten. Then one day during the summer when he is eight years old, a drifter named Teddy Williams shows up on his family's property and E.A., young man of the house, goes out to shoo the fellow off. But before the drifter leaves, he teaches E.A. a few things about baseball and about life. The drifter will return throughout this humorous story full of quirky characters, always teaching E.A. and yes, the drifter is his dad. And yes, E.A. finally makes it to the majors, playing for the Sox. And yes this coming of age story is about much more than just baseball, but if you are a reader who loves the game, then you're guaranteed to love this book. But you don't have to be a card-carrying baseball fanatic to be captured and captivated by this story. I know, because Mr. Mosher drew me right in and I've never played the game. Here is a list of some more wonderful books that make for wonderful gift giving. You can just skip over the wordy, jumbled together list and go straight down to the thumbnail of the bookcover and click on any of the one's you're interested in and you'll be taken straight to it's page on Amazon. Merry Christmas one and all and happy reading, Gracie 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven' , 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time (Vintage Contemporaries)' , 'The Kite Runner' , 'Reading Lolita in Tehran: A Memoir in Books' , 'The Time Traveler's Wife (Harvest Book)' , 'Middlesex: A Novel' , 'The Virgin Suicides' , 'Life of Pi' , 'Little Earthquakes' , 'Magical Thinking : True Stories' , 'The Sunday Philosophy Club : An Isabel Dalhousie Mystery' , 'Northern Lights' , 'Guji Guji' , 'The Dogs of Bedlam Farm : An Adventure with Sixteen Sheep, Three Dogs, Two Donkeys, and Me' , 'The Grim Grotto (A Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 11)' , 'Travel Team' , 'Chronicles, Vol. 1' , 'The Dark Tower (The Dark Tower, Book 7)' , 'The Da Vinci Code' , 'Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell: A Novel' , 'Incubus Dreams (Anita Blake Vampire Hunter)' , 'Angels & Demons' , 'Trace (Kay Scarpetta Mysteries)' , 'Dead Ringer' , 'Sacred Stone (Oregon Files (Paperback))' , 'The System of the World (The Baroque Cycle, Vol. 3)' , 'London Bridges (Alex Cross Novel)' , 'Double Homicide: Boston / Sante Fe (2 in 1)' , 'Hour Game' , 'Deception Point' , 'The Golem's Eye (The Bartimaeus Trilogy, Book 2)' , 'Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy and Childbirth' , 'Night Fall' , 'The Last Juror' , 'Dragon Rider' , 'The Narrows: A Novel' , 'Hidden Prey' , 'Therapy' , 'R is for Ricochet' , 'Ragged Man' , 'Song of Susannah (The Dark Tower, Book 6)' , 'The Complete Cartoons of The New Yorker' , 'On the Wing: To the Edge of the Earth with the Peregrine Falcon;( Rough Cut)' , 'Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation' , 'He's Just Not That Into You: The No-Excuses Truth to Understanding Guys' I know this list seems sort of hodge podgy, because I kind of jumped from genre to genre, but I've tried to enclued something for everyone in the family. I sincerely hope you find something to put under the tree this year. Again, happy reading and all my best, Gracie Products mentioned include: So You'd Like to Give a Great Christmas Present this Year 1.
