New Born Baby Hamper – Buy Ready-Made or Make Yourself?
If you choose to get a ready-made baby hamper, then it could be as easy as click and pay. If you choose to put a bit more effort into the gift, then here are some great ideas that you can use to create your unique New Born Baby Hamper.
The first thing that you will need is a container to put all the goodies into. It does not necessarily need to be a basket, it can be a bucket, a bowl, a box, or anything else that you can make look cute for the newborn baby. It is advisable that you first decide on what you are going to buy before you choose the container. If you decide to go for a basket, you can choose any material, but a cane, straw, bamboo, or willow are the better choice.
If you take a basket that is lined with cloth, it can be used again for storing diapers in, or for their bath products. If the mom-to-be wants to, she can even keep the basket for the later years when it can be used as a toy box.
When you choose to give your gifts in a plastic bowl or bucket, it can also be reused at a later stage, possibly as a bucket for toys, or to take out to the beach for a fun day.
Another great way to present your baby hamper to the new mom is to use a real baby’s bath, which you can place all the essential bath goodies into.
Then, if none of the above grab your attention, you can make use of a canvas storage container or a baby potty. Both of these alternatives make great “baskets”, and they can be used by mom afterward.
The last great idea for a baby hamper is to use a toy wagon to place all your gifts into. The baby will be able to use it when he/she is a toddler, to pull around all their toys.
The final step to take if you are making your own baby hamper is to give it a personal touch. If you know the mom-to-be, you should have an idea of what she likes, and possibly the sex of the unborn child, which means that you can add a few extras that come from the heart. The possibilities are endless!
