The Perfect Baby Shower Gift

1/2/2014

0 Comments

 
When I was pregnant with Livia, I was given four separate baby showers.  And although everything that I received was absolutely adorable and even more appreciated, three gifts really stood out. Why you ask?  Because they were handmade! 
#1:  A stack of embellished burp rags sewn by a long time friend,         Amy.  So cute!

#2: A patchwork stuffed owl sewn by my cousin, April.

#3: A crocheted blanket sewn by a long time friend of my mom.  (Sorry no picture!!)

Not only did I love receiving these gifts, but Livia's favorite blanket that she sleeps with every night is the crocheted blanket. I never forced it upon her, she just gravitated to it (and she had a lot to choose from -- I received no less than 15 blankets).  And I truly believe because she can feel the love that went into making it.

This brings me to my point.  The perfect baby shower gift is one that is handmade!  A coworker of mine, Christine, is having a little girl.  And although I'm going in on an "office gift" (something off her registry), I couldn't help but crochet her something special.
