Give One Bootie at the Wedding Shower, One at the Baby Shower
When going to a wedding shower, I purchase 2 sets of booties. I nicely wrap 1 blue bootie, and 1 pink bootie. I wrap the 2 booties and put a note in the box. I do not sign the card.

I have been using these two tips for many years and have received only compliments! For a very unique baby shower gift, buy a potty (just the pot), and then with the help of your Pharmacy and Dollar stores, fill it up with useful items the baby will need; this makes a very economical gift if you use dollar stores.
Cross Stitch Poem for a Baby Shower Gift
It's been more than a few years since I've attended a baby shower and I recall a poem that was crossed stitched for one of my friends 20+ years ago.

It was about allowing the "dust and cobwebs can wait" (I think...), babies don't wait and grow up too quickly but "housework can wait".

Eco-Friendly Baby Shower Gift?
I would like to get my friend's little one off to a healthy, non-toxic, earth-friendly start, and I need to spend less than $30. I could just get a small gift basket from one of the on-line shops I've seen, but with those, you end up paying $7.50 each for smallish bottles of lotion, shampoo, etc. Is this a good deal? Papillon
