I have been compensated by JOHNSON’S® Baby for this post; however, I am sharing my own thoughts. All opinions are my own.
Help out a new mom, or prepare a mom-to-be, with a Baby Shower Gift Basket and a Free Printable Card.
My sister-in-law is about to have a baby, so I've been thinking about what to give her to celebrate her new bundle of joy. Often when you think of what to get a new mom, shopping for adorable little onesies, burp cloths, and bottles can be hard to resist. However, I remember when I was a new mom and I was overwhelmed with all of those things. What I really needed was the essentials, which I didn't have very much of, if at all. So, if you're about to celebrate a new mom, or mom-to-be, I've put together a gift basket idea that I know she AND baby will appreciate.
There are a lot of baby products out there, but I want to give my sister-in-law the JOHNSON’S®
baby products I loved using with my daughter the most. For daytime baths, my go-to was the JOHNSON’S® Head-to-Toe Baby Wash to gently cleanse and soothe sensitive baby skin with one bottle. Afterward, the Johnson's Baby Lotion is perfect for babies' delicate skin and has the classic baby-fresh scent. The JOHNSON’S® Bedtime Baby Bath, Lotion, and Shampoo helped us get into a routine to calm baby down at bedtime with a warm bath, gentle massage, and Natural Calm essences to help babies sleep better (which is helpful for everyone).
All of the JOHNSON’S® products are safe for sensitive baby skin, because they’re clinically proven to be gentle and mild, as well as being hypoallergenic and paraben-free. You can find a variety of JOHNSON’S® baby products at Walmart in the baby products aisle.
Now that you have your products, it's time to arrange them into a sweet gift basket! Find a basket that you like. You could even find a bin or container that the mom-to-be can use again afterward for storage! Line the basket with some tissue paper sheets. Place the JOHNSON’S® baby products into the basket. I put the taller bottles in the back and the shorter in front so you could see them all. I also put the Bedtime products together on the same side.
If you want, you can also put in other gifts like pacifiers, socks, and other small items into the basket. While we were shopping, my daughter picked out a sweet little stuffed cat for her new cousin. I put the cat in between the two taller bottles so it looks like she's snuggling the lotion.
Next, I tied some adorable pink ribbon with sparkle dots around the basket into a sweet bow in the front. I just love little details like this on gift baskets. Plus, the new mom can reuse the ribbon afterward to use as a hair bow for baby!
Make sure that you include a card with the gift basket! I've designed a card that you can download and use for any baby gift. Simply print out the Baby Card on white cardstock and cut it out with scissors or a paper cutter. Fold along the center line, and write your message inside. The folded card measures 4" x 6", so it will fit in an envelope.
Some things you should know before downloading:
*Artsy-Fartsy Mama printables are for PERSONAL USE ONLY (home, school, libraries, etc).
*You may NOT modify, sell, redistribute, or claim the design as your own.
*Please do not remove the credits/watermarks.
*If you'd like to share this project, you may use ONE photo and credit must be given to Artsy-Fartsy Mama and linked back to this post.
Tuck the card into the basket, and the gift is ready to give. You could also wrap the entire basket in cellophane and tie off with another ribbon.
I am so excited to give this gift basket to my sister-in-law, and I'm even more excited to meet my new niece!
