Goody bags:

Do you remember when you were a child and going to a party meant you got a goody bag? Usually that bag was filled with fun toys and tasty, overly sweet treats that normally your own mother wouldn't let you have, but "it is a special occasion" always won out. That meant that you usually ate all of the candy as Fast you possibly could before she changed her mind. Then you spent the next hour playing with the cool new toys from your goody bag at a speed that could break the sound barrier.

As an adult the concept of a goody bag still brings back fond memories of afternoons spent blissfully buzzing. However, now the goody bag has taken on a more sophisticated flare. This very cost effective favor gives you a chance to really get your creative juices moving. Here are the basic Supplies that you'll need:

* A basket

* filler for the basket, tissue paper or fake grass work really well.

* Home made treats: Cookies are the obvious easily made choice.

You can, of course, get really fancy and make several types of treats and even print up cards with the recipe to accompany the treats that you have made.

Spa Kit:

The majority of baby showers are attended by a woMen only crowd, making this kit an ideal choice for your guests. It is always fun to be pampered and with this kit you can provide the tools for pampering. Here are some simple and cheap idea's for this kit.

* A portable nail kit

* Lotion

* Bath soaps

* scented candle

Again, this can be fancied up or down depending on your budget. For some of the more creative people out there you can find a recipe for home made facial masks, lotions, and soaps. For the less creative all of these items can be found in the travel section of a grocery store or even the Dollar store. Still keeping it cost effective and fun!

Coffee or Tea?

No matter what the preference is, you can be sure that most people at the part drink one or the other. For this goody these are the items you'll need.

* Blank baggies of the color of your choice

* Labels

* Enough coffee beans or loose leaf tea to fill the baggies.

For this one you can utilize your printer and have labels custom made for the baby shower. Each bag should have the label put onto it, just be sure to add somewhere on the package what exactly is in the bag. If you want to add another cute detail you can find scoops that you can tie to the package.

Custom made frames:

With this one you can give them a present twice! You can custom make frames with simple wooden frames from the local craft store and some paint, and fill the frame with the baby shower date. During the shower you can take pictures of everyone during the festivities. When it's time to send out those many thank you cards send a picture of each person with the card to fill that new frame they just got! It's a great way to leave a lasting memory with all of your guests!
