Personalizing a baby's gift is an excellent idea, making the
gift distinct and special and grows into a cherished token
through the years. When giving or making a gift sooner, before
the baby's due, you are faced with a problem, that is, you are
not yet certain of the name and the birth date. An option to
consider is by giving a gift certificate for an etching or
engraving design along with your gift. This way, when the
wonderful day arrives, the parents can take your gift and have
it personalized.
Choices for personalized gifts are baby cups, picture

frame,
jewelry or a cutlery set. There are wide selections of items
that can be personalized; all you have to do is look.
A blanket for baby embroidered with the baby's name alongside
the name's meaning would make an excellent gift for both mom and
baby.
Your labor of love gift basket
Gift baskets are very popular today and indeed a wonderful idea
which can either be purchased made-to-order or ready-made. Or,
you can do it yourself by putting together all baby items that
you like for the baby. Here's how you can make one:
1. Know

first the size of the basket that you will use. A very
large basket may be difficult to fill, so a medium sized is
recommended. Usually, craft stores sell baskets of different
sizes, shapes and colors. Shredded tissue paper and raffia make
great fillers to be layered at the basket's bottom, alongside
with baby towels and blankets.
2. If you do have a large basket, you can easily fill it up by
choosing bigger items as well, such as crib comforters, stuffed
bunny or teddy, pillows or crib bumpers.
3. Take into consideration the baby's gender, what really

the
baby needs. For a first baby, there will be many things that he
will need. Having to look at a baby registry if the mom to be
has one, can help a lot, since you will know what the baby
really needs. If there is none, you could always ask the mom
what else she needs for the baby.
4. Consider having a theme. You can load the basket with
everything pink for a baby girl or everything blue for a baby
boy, or everything having a "pooh" or a dinosaur design. A
bedtime theme basket filled with story books, music CD,
blankets, pillows, pajama, musical crib mobile and

a teddy bear
can be a wonderful idea. Be creative and let your imagination
soar.
5. Another way of being creative is instead of using a basket, a
baby tub, a diaper bag, a small laundry basket or a trunk can
also be used.
6. For a tub, you can fill it with baby bathing accessories,
such as soaps, towels, bubble bath, powder, baby shampoo, lotion
and bath rubber toys.
7. For the trunk, you can fill it with baby's keepsake book,
monogrammed items, receiving blankets, heirloom items, a picture
frame and an inspirational book all about mom and

baby. You can
also place a little inspirational note containing all your
wishes for the baby. This will add a more personal touch to your
gift.
8. For the laundry basket, you can fill it with cute slippers,
diapers, baby comb and brush, booties, and baby clothes.
