Baby Showers

hostess gifts?

What are you giving your hostess(es) for a gift? I can't figure out anything!!!!!

Re: hostess gifts?

  • The last time I hosted a shower the mom-to-be sent flowers to my office - lovely!  Another time I got a spa gift certificate ($30 or so?) and had the manicure of a lifetime.
  • I bought my mom a day at the spa certificate, she was thrilled
  • Loading the player...
  • A few bottles of really good wine.
  • I did a Thanksgiving/Fall theme. I purchased the Williams Sonoma Thanksgiving Entertaining Book, a burgandy baking/serving dish in the shape of a leaf, burgandy and orange tea towels, a decorative pumpkin, and some candles. I put them all in a brown basket.
  • Aveda gift baskets (bath salts, foot & hand lotion, candle)
  • I got each of my girls different things. I thought about what they each would like. For instance...my aunt loves candles so I got her Yankee candles and things like that. My sister likes to bake so I got her stuff from Williams Sonoma along with some "Auntie" stuff. I got both of our moms  digital picture frames. They will be able to download pics right away and put them in the frame! I know they will love that! I also got them "Grandma" stuff, like a brag book and " I love grandma" blankets. The last hostess is my grandma and we got her a picture frame that says "4 Generations" on it along with some bath and body works stuff, (she loves bath and body!). Anyways, I would say to get them things that fit their personality, things they like and/or things they will use. Gift cards are a great idea as well!

  • for my mother and MIL I gave them both photo albums with picture of SG and babys name on it so they could fill it with pictures of thier grandchild
  • As a cohost, my friend didn't give me anything!! I wasn't expecting anything from her but a thank you card would have been nice.

    I hate cohosting in general!!

  • For one shower I got my two hostesses Coach wristlets. The other shower I did a bath and body works home scent baskets for my sisters.  I told them I wanted their houses to smell nice, even after my little one guy visits them. They all really like them.
