One of the sweetest times ever is celebrating a friend’s soon-to-be new arrival! A baby shower is such a joyous occasion for everyone in attendance. A shower is a chance to honor the mother-to-be and their little one with things they may need. Life is busy and someone taking time out of their schedule to celebrate a mom-to-be is so special. It is something to be extra grateful for!
Gifting guests with a favor from your shower isn’t a must but is a nice gesture. I love unique items that guests can use.
