Modified: Aug 9, 2017 by Vanessa Beaty · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

Baby shower ideas! If you’re looking for them, you’ve come to the right place, because lately it feels like that’s all I think about. I have four baby showers coming up just around the corner on my calendar, and I need to bring cool gifts to all of them.

How to Make an Adorable “Diaper Baby” Basket - Baby Shower Gift IdeaFirst of all, if you haven’t checked it out yet, you should have a look at this list of 25 baby shower gift ideas. You also should take a look at this afghan idea if you happen to be good with crochet.

While handmade gifts like the afghan are awesome, a lot of the items a new mother needs to care for her baby are quite mundane—socks, diapers, and so forth. But that doesn’t mean they have to have a mundane presentation. Check out the exclusive video below to find out how you can present washcloths, socks, diapers and more to an expecting mother in the form of an adorable baby basket!
