The mother has an instant keepsake, and you have saved her valuable time and energy. Whether you're scrapbooking or not, be sure to take lots of pictures. Be sure to set aside adequate space for these baby shower crafts, and delegate as many tasks as possible to any willing volunteers.
Unfinished Wood Crafts: These are fun crafts for a group to get together and do. There are lots of great unfinished wood items at craft stores that would make cute baby shower gifts. You can choose from hatboxes, decorative shelves, picture frames, and letters to spell the baby's name or a message, toys, etc.
Baby arts & crafts projects make unique baby shower gifts. Some of these crafts can be turned into interesting family traditions and make beautiful memory keepsakes, where you can watch the baby grow. Making these crafts can be used as an opportunity to spend quality time with your babies. Babies will love to be a part of a craft project and to help you out.
Suitable baby shower crafts for a nursery rhyme themed shower include a paper tablecloth decorated with written out nursery rhymes and paper cutouts of popular nursery rhyme figures decorating the wall. A decorative centerpiece is another great baby shower craft idea and can be made of "silver bells and cockle shells" (lilies of the valley and seashells.) Star shaped glitter can be sprinkled inside the invitation envelopes and also sprinkled around candles and flower arrangements for a star themed shower.
You can also ask older brothers and sisters to record the happy mother and guests as they laugh and make jokes. By involving the entire family in the baby shower crafts you let them see that this event is part of their lives and that they too can contribute towards the arrival of their new family member. One way of getting original baby shower crafts that are of an instant nature would involve the older siblings in making something. This can be a painting that that shows how happy and excited they are.
