With the economy on the decline and a bun in the oven, you may be looking for the most cost effective answer to planning a baby shower. Rather than spending gobs of money on pre-made items, do it yourself crafts are an excellent alternative. Something that will truly make your special day memorable is by creating a gift that keeps giving the beauty that your baby one day will. For each guest, purchase a separate seed package of flowers like baby’s breath or baby blue eyes. Punch a hole in the packet and tie a bow with brightly-colored ribbon to the packet. You can ever decorate the ribbon to reveal the sex of the baby or the expected birthdate. Have fun with your cheap baby shower favors!
