Baby Shower Favors And Mementos: Suggestions for Selecting Useful Gifts Your Freinds Will Actually Use

We all want our baby shower day remembered by our guests and one sure way to do this is by arranging to have practical baby shower favors organized. The reason you may want to do this is simple; inexpensive baby shower favors or simple ones tend to be either used on the day or discarded fairly soon after the baby shower.

If you make the decision to give out favors which are more practical in nature your guests are more likely to appreciate and cherish the favors which you give out on your baby shower day. Unfortunately, so many other baby shower favors are only good for the day and while a large bowl of candy will certainly bring enjoyment it won’t last more than a few hours unlike the practical baby shower favors you will provide.

One practical suggestion is coasters which are easily obtainable in a number of shapes, including the romantic heart shape but can also be designed to have your baby shower theme imprinted. Heart shaped coasters will be ideal because they are romantic and convey the sentiment of love but they are also something your guests can really use. For example you can purchase coasters with pictures of sand or the beach to go with a beach themed baby shower and you can include a picture of the bride and the groom in one of the coasters and leave the rest of the coasters in the set blank so your guests can use their own photos if they wish.

Having practical baby shower favors that can be carried with you all the time isn’t a bad idea and key chains fit this criterion very well although you will need to have a shape that suits men and another for women. In fact there are so many designs you could almost make every one unique but they will at the very least have to be strong enough for regular use as well as a reminder of your baby shower day.

Although possible something that women would appreciate more, candles are always a pleasant gift as they come in so many different forms, from tea lights to church candles. Most people already have at least a few candles in their house but they can always use a few more because they are very versatile and can be used to set a romantic mood but can also serve other purposes as well. You can almost guarantee that these will be baby shower favors that people will find practical and use whether it is because of a power outage or they just like seeing the natural glow of a candle.

If you want to stay with a romantic theme, and after all it is a baby shower favor, then why not consider wine charms which can have baby shower bells or heart shapes and are rather appropriate for a baby shower. Very few people actually have these charms in their home but can be very useful when you have friends around and need to distinguish who owns a particular drink. For anyone that has been to a party with many people in attendance it is very easy to put you glass down somewhere and either lose it or someone else drink from it.

Finally a stop smoking aid that works!
