Baby Shower Gifts

I was helping host a baby shower and was put in charge of theme and decorations. They wanted something to hang on a clothes line and something for the entry way. I also did the take home gift. The theme I came up with was what are little boys made of/what are little girls made of. The lady we were doing the shower for had just adopted twins. I found 5 pack of boys onsies on clearance at target for 2.51, I used embroidery thread I already had on hand and bought the craft paper on sale for .19 each. I had to pay for the girl onsies full price because of the small amount of time.













Painted this cute picture for the entry way, I fell in love with this picture and wanted to keep it for myself. I used a canvas that someone I knew was going to throw away, but had to buy new gesso and paintbrushes.



The shower colors were pink and green and I found this cute basket at my favorite thrift shop for a 1.99, with the tags still on.


With a little creativity and some good ideas it came together so nicely. Would love to hear some frugal ideas for baby showers, please share!
