Hampers...

Babyvoisey · Jan 31st, 2012, 05:20 AM

Ok so my friend is 3 weeks ahead and rather than buying one pressie when baby is here we agreed we would do a hamper for eachother! I really wanna get creative but have no idea what to put in it? Baring in mind she has a yellow bump but hates yellow is a pain in the bum! Also wanna do her a mum to be hamper any suggestions people??

What do I put in baby hamper?

What do I put in her mum to be hamper? X

Oooh ive done hampers they're soo much fun.

Try to focus on her n not 'mum to be' as she is still a person too hehe. so get stuff like bubble bath, a shower poofie (scrunchie) moisturisers, shampoo, conditioner, razors? that sorta stuff, maybe even include in some socks haha, a belt, jarmies? Money depending of corse!

Baby id say mitts, booties n hats in white, n then go for either disney baby gro's which r unisex n soo sweet, of in matalan they do some lovely thick sleepsuits in black n white (ive got 1) n one in multicoloured (got that too haha)

Put them in a nice wicker asket with some like tissue paper, maybe pink for mum n silver for baby? n line em all up nicely.

i wana do a random hamper now haha

For the baby hamper i'd put in a white knitted blanket, a white baby towel complete with muslin clothes/flannels. A few baby clothes in either white, cream or brown. baby shampoo, lotion ect and some sudocrem.

For mum to be i'd put in face some really rich moisturizer, chocolate, and in general things that will make her life easier like dry shampoo for those days when she hasnt got time to do her hair and maybe a book for new mums. thats the sort of thing i'd like to recieve anyways xx

I've just finished a baby hamper for my cousin, she's having her 3rd baby tomorrow morning by c-section.

Have put in it : Nappies, wipes, nappy sacks, baby bath, shampoo, lotion, powder, sudocream, a baby photo frame, bibs, a soft toy, baby blanket & vests. It's in a wicker basket wrapped in clear plastic. Just waiting to find out if it's a boy or girl before I put ribbon on it. Looks fab

Would be delighted to get a pressie like this for my lil one!!

what a lovely idea

i made my friend a nappy cake, a baby sock bouqet and baby sock cupcakes for her daughter that was born 7 months ago, she loved it, presents like hampers etc are so thoughtful i think
