Baby Shower Presents

My friend is having a baby shower in December and wants practical stuff like nappies for presents. I'm thinking of making up a basket of stuff for her rather that giftwrapping some babywipes. :rotfl:

Any ideas?

    Before our godson was born, I started collecting bits and pieces from Boots etc when they were on BOGOF, like baby shampoo, wipes and then reduced items of clothing. This was then presented on the birth of the little man and the mum was delighted. Just double check with your friend what sort of nappies she wants.............. and don't forget nappy sacks!

    Don't forget the mum too. You can get a really nice "mum to be" pamper pack from Neal's Yard Remedies.

    Register on the likes of Huggies and Pampers and they send you samples and money off coupons which always come in handy.
    One day I might be more organised...........:confused:
