Looking for Baby Shower Ideas?

If you are hosting a baby shower you are probably trying to come up with some creative baby shower ideas to make it special. One of the best ways to save money on planning an event like this is by taking some time to make your own homemade decorations and food.I have been to a lot of baby showers and got so many different ideas for when the time would come when I would be planning one either for myself or for a family member or friend. Not only can it be fun to make your own decorations but the mom-to-be will definitely appreciate the time and effort you put into planning the event. Here are some ideas to get you started. You can customize all of these to the gender of the baby or keep it neutral.
