A sweet-and-simple idea for prizes that will fit anyone’s budget is a candy baby bottle. For this, all you will need are empty baby bottles, candy, and ribbon. Fill empty baby bottles with jelly beans and M & M’s , close the baby bottle with the top, and add your own decorative style with ribbon or other accessories, if desired. Don’t be hesitatant to add your own style to the bottles and personalize them — unique baby gifts are the choice ones!
T-shirts can also be personalized and used as favors and/or prizes. You can craft your own T-shirts and have them made for your shower. This makes for a cute gift and is a extraordinary keepsake. T-shirts have recently become very posh for events like baby showers.

prizes for women. Women seem to like anything and everything that has to do with spa treatments and that relates to pampering themselves. Most women love surprise at your baby shower. Another thing most women cannot live without is chocolate. An attractive box of fine and luscious chocolates creates an excellent gift that all your guests will definitely enjoy .
