Baby Crafts consist of some very simply projects that you can use while throwing a baby shower. If you wish to add that extra touch of your style to a baby shower then consider picking up some of these ideas.
Handmade Invitations
You can make handmade baby shower invitations around the theme of the shower or if there is no theme you can try this idea.
Use a cookie cutter as a stencil to create a unique shape for your invitation card. Take some colored construction paper and cut out tiny shirts, pants and dresses from it. Draw a clothesline on the front of the card and end it with a bow on either side. Paste the tiny clothes to the clothesline. Add a small teddy bear hanging from one ear for a cute touch. Your invitation is ready.
Decoration Ideas
Pick up some bright fresh flowers from your garden and add some baby's breath to it to make a lovely bouquet.
For a table centerpiece you can create a baby clothes bouquet. It will be a dual purpose baby craft, in the sense that, it will be a piece of decoration and later you can use the items in it for your baby.
Another decoration idea is to make a collage of your baby's pictures with the family. Paste these pictures on a poster board and decorate it with paints. Place it on an easel where everyone can view it on the day of the shower.
Party Favors
Handmade candles make excellent party favors for guests. All you will need is some paraffin wax, fragrance oil and cotton braided wicks to make these.
A fun craft idea for making favors requires the use of cotton fabric. Cut the fabric in triangles and dip these pieces in melted paraffin wax. While the wax is hot shape the triangle pieces into baby diapers. The stiff diapers can then be used to hold candies or other treats as party favors.
Another simple yet nice idea is to gift painted glasses to your guests. Just buy some plain glasses from the market and use glass paints to color them in baby themes.
If you are looking to cut costs, use as many dual-purpose baby craft ideas as possible. Make party favors that can first be used to decorate the room and then be given away to guests as a memento. Also read about following Crafts :
