Baby Shower Question

[Latrice414]

What goes in the Baby Shower Party Favor Bag?  What do you ladies plan on putting in yours?

[cure65roses]

yes, walmart, the candy isle, bags of lifesaver mint candies with about 50-60 pieces individually wrapped

[Latrice414]

where did you order the candy from, i think ima check walmart, didnt see them at walgreens

[cure65roses]

bydesigncreations.ca is the website (it's a canadian based company/website.)  I actually ordered from them off of ebay, it's my preferred way to shop, since i can go through paypal to pay which is secure and safe.

if you go to ebay and type in candy wrappers or lifesaver candy wrappers or baby shower candy wrappers, you'll have lots to choose from.

35momof: those are cute, the individual ones:)

Ive decided to do a personalized popcorn bag, with a few small snickers. Also im ordering personalized pencils and notepads thats going to say thanks for sharing this special day(not sure what pharse i want)  and i will have some mints on the table.

Where did you order the individual life savors from? Those and mints would be good for me to put onthe table

Check out my profile ~ I have posted a picture of some of my lifesavers.  =)

I can email you the template for my lifesaver rolls if you want.  You can play around on your computer and see if it will let you edit it.  (Someone emailed the template to me.) It says press CTRL + E to edit.  Anyone who wants the template, msg me to give me your email address.  It will probably only work for girl babies only though.  (The baby feet are pink and I don't think you can change that. But you could try.)

OK, im stealing the life savor idea, seems cheap just to order the paper and stick them on the life savor rolls.

Possible ideas.  Personalized pen & note pad, i seen the pink bottle candle that is very cute and a personalized baby bottle that you can put mints or candy in.

Then for announcements i will send out personalized popcorn bags,(my sister is going to make the labels)

[cure65roses]

I guess I'm going with only candy inside a small party favor bag.  Everything will be personalized:

1) a roll of fruit lifesavers with wrappers that have pink baby feet and say "Welcome Twins Hailey & Hannah" and at the bottom says "A little bit of Lori, a little bit of Chris, and a lot of love forever!"

2) a few mini candy bars (Hershey nuggets) with pink baby feet wrappers that says "Welcome Twins Hailey & Hannah"

3)  a few individually wrapped lifesaver mint candies with baby feet stickers on them that say "Welcome Twins Hailey & Hannah"

I can't think of anything else.  Maybe I'll also do suckers attached to the personalized lollipop cards...

uuhhhh lol I have no idea. If it was me I would probably do the same thing I give away at bridal showers. I hate pointless gifts so I give things people use. I would do a candle and small bottle of bath and body works lotion. I'm not really good at the baby shower stuff.

Let me know what you end up doing so I can cheat and steal your idea ;-)

[Latrice414]

I mean, how many items are you suppose to put in the bag, should only one thing be personalized. And how many items do you give the guest.

I like the bottle shaped candles and the baby shower cookies. You could probably buy the stuff and make those yourself.

ummm...wow I should remember from when I had my son...it was only a year ago..lol. My friend handled everything, but I am pretty sure it was a candle with a holder of some sort. Nothing fancy, but it worked. I'm not sure what's going to go in it this time around. Haven't gotten that far yet since I am having my baby shower after baby arrives.
