It’s baby shower season again! I thought it would be fun to put together some baby shower favors. I love hosting baby showers because it’s usually not a large party and you can put thought and care into the details and everyone notices! For these projects I used supplies I keep on hand from Paper Mart. They are my favorite source of supplies and ribbon for this kind of thing.
Baby Block Boxes
I love the idea of spelling out something in baby blocks and making it part of the party decor. Then guests can pick up a box of treats as they leave.
Materials: Colored Paper, Baby Block Template, Clear Plastic Boxes, Scissors or X-acto Knife, Spray Glue, Jelly Beans
Step 1: Print out the Baby Block Template. Trace out and cut the small squares.
Step 2: Assemble your plastic boxes.
Step 3: Use spray glue to attach the squares to the plastic boxes.
Step 4: In the same color as the squares, cut out letters to spell “Oh Baby!”
Step 5: Attach the letters to the boxes with spray glue.
Step 6: Fill with candy.
Rainbow Treat Bags
These treats also work as pretty decorations. We just used a large sheet of homasote from the hardware store and wrapped it in fabric. I love that you can make it any color theme you want.
Materials: Rainbow Awning Template, Cellophane Bags, Rainbow Jelly Beans, Scissors, Stapler, Pins
Step 1: Print and cut out the Awning Template.
Step 2: Fold in half.
Step 3: Fill your cellophane bags with candy.
Step 4: Fold over the top portion of the bag and attach the Awning tag.
Step 5: Staple in place.
Step 6: Use push pins to display on a board.
French Flag Treat Bags
I did a version of these French Flag favors for my friend’s baby shower. They’re so easy to make and really sweet.
Materials: Eiffel Tower Tag Template, Cellophane Bags, Red, White & Blue Jelly Beans, Hole Punch, Red, White & Blue Ribbon, Scissors
Step 1: Cut out the Eiffel Tower tags.
Step 2: Punch a hole in the top of the Eiffel Tower.
Step 3: Attach a piece of ribbon to hole in the tower.
Step 4: Fill the bag with a layer of red jelly beans. Repeat with a layer of white and a layer of blue.
Step 5: Fold over the bag and use the adhesive to attach the top of the bag to the bottom.
Step 6: Punch a hole in the top corner of the bag.
Step 7: Thread the ribbon (with the tag) through the hole in the bag.

I like the idea with the boxes best, but the Paris themed favor can be used on so many occasions! Thanks for this DIY!
