A new baby is coming in to your world! I'm sure you'll agree a new baby brings so much excitement, a vast amount of love and a great excuse to do lots of spoiling - the baby, the siblings, the parents and don't forget the grandparents to be!
Let's start with the announcement - there are so many great ideas doing the rounds from exploding soccer balls firing out pink powder to more classic cutting of a cake to reveal a pink or blue centre or the bursting of a balloon showering guests with glittery confetti. It seems to all be about Social media and that all important picture. At Custom Hampers we can help with the announcements, from milestone discs, a baby grow with personalised message, I'm going to be a Big Bother or Big Sister T-shirts, a pair of mugs saying Nanny and Pop - whatever your ideas and how you choose to do it, let us help.
The gender reveal - the excitement and anticipation grows as baby's arrival draws closer. We love nothing more than building a beautifully curated baby hamper for the new arrival. There are lots to choose from or you can give us your wish list and let us to the rest by building your hamper to suit the theme and personalising it making it one of a kind. We can also help with the party with our signs, group t-shirts, even the balloon DIY gender reveal kit and so much more. Send us your envelope from the scan with the gender inside (michelle@customhampergifts.com) and we will do all the hard work behind the scenes so its kept a secret for everyone and the whole family can enjoy the gender reveal together.
Spoiling the family - a new baby bring so much happiness but can bring some anxiety especially for siblings. It's important to try and involve them and let them know that the new baby will bring new responsibilities, lots of love and fun. Spoil the siblings with a gift to let them know they are not forgotten, gifting maybe activity books or something similar to keep them occupied and feel the love whilst baby is getting so much attention. Whilst baby is the focus it's also important not to forget mum, after all she's the one thats done all the hard work! Think about the gift, is she breast feeding - no alcohol! Would she appreciate bath salts, a candle, maybe an eye mask and box of chocolates, a Worlds Best Mum mug and some nice tea and biscuit's to enjoy or is she the mum who wants 'Mummy est 2024' on a personalised jumper for all to see. How about Mum and Dad or Nanny and Pop having matching t-shirts 'the new parents' or 'grandparents' or 'baby's fav aunt' - the possibilities are endless and with a quick contact us message we can mock something up and design something together thats perfect for the occasion.
The baby - babies need so much and I don't think anyone can deny that. There are so many generic gifts out there but there are also so many opportunities to gift something truely special and personal. A favourite of mine is our milestone occasion hampers, which not only celebrate the firsts but means that the gift can keep giving thought out baby's all important first year. Carefully select sizes to suit the size baby will be at their Arrival, first Easter, first Christmas and first Birthday. If you know baby's name that can be added, or a surname or date anything you so wish. Why not incude a sibling or parents t-shirt to match baby for the occasion of your choice too. I love embroidery for personalising baby items, its so delecate and pretty so think of adding a cushion, towel, bibs, baby grows or even a teddy to match the theme of the nursery or theme of choice. These items are sure to delight and provide beatiful keepsakes for years to come.
Whats left to say, other than congratulations on the new arrival coming in to your life!
