A Personalized-Budget Friendly-Baby Shower Gift

Over the weekend I went to a baby shower for

 a friend/daughter of a client, Christina!

I wanted to gift a super cute Carter's 3 piece set..

(has the cutest blue and white striped pants!)

i LOVE shopping for boy clothes since all i see in this house is pink pink pink. :)

I used a Target $1 bin- tin bucket to hold the goodies and to be a container the mama could use in the nursery to hold things. because one thing i know is you end up with lots of "little" baby things that need a place so you stay organized! (as much as possible. :)

I also put some Target books in the tin! my favorite was the $1 bath time book.

the bath time books are the BEST when it comes to babies and books..

babies automatically try to eat everything...and these are soft and chewy!

**ignore the mess in the background. my dining room table is currently

 covered with details for the baby shower i'm planning!**

to make it special for my friend and baby I wrapped the tin with ribbon I had in my craft box, and then created and printed out a circle label. a cute little touch. 

i created a little tented card to stick in the tin as well.

it was an airplane baby shower theme so i put one on the card..why not! ;)

packaged it up in a cute bag and ready for the Baby Shower!
Using this same idea you can go as big or small as is in your budget!
and i'm sure the mama will appreciate the special touches you use!

It was really fun seeing my Pretty Paperie Printables used at a local party!
Christina's Mama did a fabulous job putting everything together! 
The party was really fun.. with baby shower games, yummy food & prizes for the guests!
her mom is a crafter so i always know her parties will be adorable!

She used circle labels as cupcake toppers, labels for the dessert table and larger circles were used on the centerpieces.

the middle row were 'brownie bites'.....uh-mazing!

she also used my circle labels as little cards for people to write their guess on how many diapers were used to create the diaper cake! very cute idea.

I've been busy during nap times and post-baby-bed-time

 working up the baby shower details..

 it's this saturday!! 

here's our dining room table...:)
