Are you looking for ideas for Baby Shower favors? You’ve come to the right place! Party favors are a nice touch to every shower. They can be anything from a small gift to a food item. They can also be the perfect complement to a centerpiece for table decorations. They offer the guests something to take home to enjoy and remember the shower by. Often, favors will include a small note or inscription with the occasion and the date.
Soy Candles
To make these favors you will need to collect enough baby food jars to cover the whole guest list. After cleaning each jar, glue a wick to the bottom and fill with melted soy wax. You can add color or scent to your preference. Create custom labels for the miniature jar candles using your printer or stamping materials.

Cookies
Depending on the theme of the baby shower, you may be able to find a cookie cutter to match. Make one cookie for each guest, frosting them to match the theme and wrap them in cellophane or treat bags. If you use treat bags, you can tie them closed with a string and include a custom tag.
Origami Boxes
There are many different designs available online and in Origami books at your local library. Most patterns call for 6” square paper. You can choose simple card stock or scrapbooking paper at your local craft store. If you choose to use scrapbook paper, you can buy 12” square sheets and cut them into four pieces, which saves you money. Fill them with the candy of your choice.
Custom Candy Bars
Create your own labels to wrap around miniature candy bars for a treat that every guest will love (to eat). Print them out on your computer, use different layers of colored or patterned paper to create a unique design, or use stamps to decorate the card stock of your choice. This type of favor is ideal for a personalized message, since you can incorporate it right into the label. Stick with plain dark or milk chocolate in case of a peanut allergy.
