Etsy Gift Guide: Baby Shower Gifts

Oh if only I had a penny for the number of baby showers I’ve been too and felt completely in the dark about what to give as a baby shower gift, I’d be able to cash in and retire to the Bahamas! It’s easy enough to pop together a gift registry, but more often than not expectant mothers don’t really know themselves what to put on that list! Not to mention, practical baby stuff is nice and all, but as a mother myself I can tell you the gifts I loved the most were the unique, beautiful ones that I’d not even thought of myself!

If you’re looking for a unique gift, then Etsy is 100% the place to look. And I’ve done the work for you - here are ten beautiful baby shower gifts that will make any Mama coo with joy!

HERE ARE MY TOP TEN GORGEOUS GIFTS FROM ETSY TO CELEBRATE A NEW ARRIVAL

1. FOREST & BEAR BABY ROMPER - £23

This absolutely gorgeous romper inspired this entire blog post. Just look at it!! Mums tend to stick to practical, cheaper packs of rompers, knowing that their kiddos will grow out of them but secretly we’re all wishing we could splash out on beautiful baby clothes like this! Top Tip: buy a size from min 3 months, it’s likely to get more wear that way and baby will be out and about lots to enjoy the attention.

2. HANDMADE CHILDREN’S NIGHT LIGHT - £26

How beautiful is this nightlight though?! I really struggled to find a nice nightlight for my son’s nursery and stumbled on these beauties too late. What a gorgeous, practical and unique gift!

3. MILESTONES CARDS - from £6.50

Do you always see those cute pictures on Instagram of babies next to cards saying things like ‘3 months old today” or, “I got my first tooth.” Well this is where you go to get those cute milestones cards. I love the print on these too and this is another gift that mum will LOVE to keep a record of their kiddos milestones, but probably won’t think to get for herself.

4. HAND KNITTED BABY SLEEPING BAG - £30.50

If Mama is expecting a winter baby then she’s going to want some gorgeous and snug to tuck her baby into on their stroller walks. I adore this cosy, hand knitted sleeping bag which absolutely guarantees cosyness!

5. PERSONALISED BABY SLEEPSUIT - £15

There really is nothing cuter than a baby in a gorgeous sleepsuit. I love this one especially for the print, the personalisation and the zipper! God bless all sleepsuits that come with zippers!

6. SEASHELL PLAYMAT - £50.30

I’ve seen a few babies that have playmats like this and I’ll admit I’m struck with a deep sense of playmat envy. If you didn’t know that was a thing I can confirm, it is! I love the timeless style and neutral colour that blends in with most interiors. Plus you can buy a separate, detachable playgym and use this mat for tummy time or playtime!

7. BABY’S FIRST CHRISTMAS, PERSONALISED CHRISTMAS STOCKING - £22.50

The first Christmas a new mum and dad get to spend with their bundle of joy is a very special one, and what better way to mark the occasion than to make sure that their sweet munchkin has their very own Christmas stocking to hang above the fireplace.

8. BABY MEMORY BOX - £28

I received this memory box from my sister in law and I adore it! It’s so cute and such a special way to remember all the sweet moments with my little boy.

9. BABY SENSORY GIFT BOX - from £25

After a few weeks this side of the womb babies become entranced by high contrast cards, books, clothes and fascinated by the sounds around them. This cute sensory gift box is such a great gift to appeal to baby’s new found love of the world and keep them distracted long enough to give mum a chance to make a well deserved cup of tea.

10. OCEAN NURSERY BABY MOBILE - £96

Last but no means the least. There’s nothing cuter than a little babe lying on their changing mat and watching a mobile with delight. I adore this ocean mobile - so cute and so stylish!

That’s a wrap! I hope you’ve found some gorgeous gifts for the expectant mama in your life that she’s going to love. If you found it helpful I’d love for you to share this post with your family and friends and maybe they can find a special something too!
