Gift Ideas for Newlyweds
Here are a few of my favorite wedding and shower gift ideas:
- For a unique wedding gift, gather kitchen tools or spices, put them in a small wicker basket, bowl, baking dish etc. and wrap the whole thing is a couple of tea towels. Make the bow out of another tea towel of a different color by wrapping around the gathered up corners and tying a knot; flare out the "ribbon" towels and attach a set of measuring spoons.
- Purchase an inexpensive picnic basket, put in all the makings for a picnic lunch, including nice plastic plates, glasses, and tableware, and wrap it in a bright colored tablecloth.
- Make a copy of your favorite cake recipe, buy a cake pan and all the ingredients you can package, and wrap them all together. Again you could use a tea towel for the wrapping or maybe the Living Section from the newspaper that has the recipes.
- If the couple will be traveling to their new home, wrap their gift in maps and attach a toy compass or air pressure gauge to the bow.
Of course these all depend on how fancy the wedding is or maybe not just how you feel about it. They always work for showers too. I try to make my shower gifts as much fun as I can. Be creative with the wrapping and avoid wasting money on the paper and bow.
