Often, when babies are the concerns of our ideas, we get that soft-hearted feeling towards them. The more we experience that softened heart for them if the baby concerned is a girl. When you are invited to a christening of a baby girl - or at Christmas dinner where there is a baby girl in the family - you just have the heart to give a present to the baby girl.
But what would be the best gift you can give to the tender princess of the house? Something she could use now and mom could keep for reminiscing when the baby becomes a lady? Or maybe something where she could frame or post her photos for us adults to admire? These are just some ideas you could use as a springboard for your gift ideas for a baby girl. It becomes more valuable if you give her a personalized baby girl gift.
One personalized gift you could give the little princess is a toy box personally decorated or added a design by you. You can buy those plastic boxes with lids. To make it child-friendly, cover it around with a bright-colored cloth lined with foam of your desired thickness. Sew the sides by hand or machine where needed.
You can use different bright- colored cloths on every side of the box. Attach appliqués of baby characters or sew the name of the baby on top of the box. Fill it with toys, tie with a big red or pink ribbon, and bring it to the home of the little princess. Another personalized baby girl gift you can make is a re-designed lampshade for the baby girl. Although you have to buy the lampshade, you will have to plan the new décor or design for the shade.
Ask for four photos of the baby ( full facial view ) and have it scanned on any material the same size as a square or rectangular shade. Then, mount the finished imaging on the shade. Embellish the sides or edging with pink lace or ribbon. You can also personalize pillows for her. Buy baby pillows and embroider the baby's name at the center the way our grandma's used to do for us. This may take some time, though, but if the letters are not too large you can make a pretty embroidered name for the little princess.
These may sound simple, but what matters are the effort, the heart.
