I love baby showers. I try to make something new and special so it’s always fun to be forced to come up with something unique for my friends. A lot of times the best part is that I can make stuff that’s fun to make you know ONE of that I really wouldn’t want to make many over and over (and over) again for the shop.
These are two things I made for my friend’s baby to come Max. I just used my favorite overall pattern and made some hippos out of scraps with my iron-on technique.
Also the mama mentioned thinking zebras were cute so of course I needed to make a zebra outfit. This one I am happy to make many of. It’s not like the overalls are hard, they’re actually faster and less time consuming than my retro rufflers I sell loads of but for some reason I have a brain block on the overalls so for now those are just for friends I love that much ;)

I love those overalls! And I know what you mean about having fun not doing something a million times. I love to make stuff for the shop but it’s fun to make something unique.

If you prefer baby gifts like an edible centerpiece, consider a tower of cupcakes or cakes. Decorate each cake with ice or plastic toppers to match the shower theme.
