Hi! I have tried to do a search online to find craft books or leaflets for baby shower favors.Only thing that comes up is ones already made.Does anyone have an idea on how to word the search in another way? Does anyone know of any sites I can go to? Any help is appreciated.Thanks,Arlene

What kind of favors did you have in mind? Picture frames, candy holders....anything in particular?

Also, what kind of craft?

This is a site that has paper templates for sale of baby shoes, cradles, etc. They have kits of baby shower items.

Have fun.

when we threw Maggy's baby shower, I made diapers from blue and pink felt and filled them with candy...
cute but economical

I just recently started watching this PBS show.

These ideas are made of chocolate and are cute:

Ohhh I just remembered! DUH

I made candy pacifiers too!

You need two white life saver mints.
By using baker's icing you "glue" the round part of the life safer and the "flat side" of the other to form a T.
You also "glue" a gum drop to the "flat side" of the top lifesaver.

I'm not sure if you can picture this, but they make really cute pacifiers. I then put a pink or blue ribbon and place them in a mini-favor bag.

I'll try to get an actual photo on here for you to see.
