I bought nice shower bags from Vera Bradley, then stuffed them with fancy shower gels/ lotions from Anthropologie, and poufs, nail scrubbers, foot scrubbers, etc. from The Body Shop. I also put in a bath bomb and homemade soaps from a local artist. </p> <p>I think you can never go wrong with wine or spa gift certificates, though. And robes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624583 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 14:04:30 +0000 MsInformation 624583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two friends hosted my shower and I got each one a $50 gift certificate to restaurants that I knew they wanted to try. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624152 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:58:07 +0000 Boheme 624152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Subscribing - I need ideas! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624144 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:55:41 +0000 regberadaisy 624144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My good friend &amp; MIl hosted. For my good friend I got her a set of throw pillow covers she wanted from Etsy and 2 throw pillows for it. And something else, I forget.</p> <p>For MIL a spa gift card!</p> <p>I spent more on MIL's gift and in retrospect I wished I'd spent the same bc I didn't realize she split the costs too with MIL. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624072 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:30:30 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 624072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I got her a gift card to a gourmet ice cream shop that she adores. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624026 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:16:25 +0000 JoJoGirl 624026@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Tagging for later - I also have 3 friends throwing my shower and am thinking of ideas for gifts for them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-624022 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 09:15:15 +0000 blackbird 624022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave this blanket from Pottery Barn: <a href="http://www.potterybarn.com/products/faux-sheepskin-throw/?pkey=e" rel="nofollow">http://www.potterybarn.com/products/faux-sheepskin-throw/?pkey=e</a>|throw|24|best|0|1|24||15&amp;cm_src=PRODUCTSEARCH||NoFacet-_-NoFacet-_-Sku_Top_Marketing_Rule|Throws-_-</p> <p>I figured it's nice enough that someone won't buy it themselves, but that's what makes it a great gift! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623891 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 08:07:19 +0000 Smurfette 623891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The shower my friends threw I didn't, since I had 7 hostesses. But we have all taken turns throwing showers for each other. I am one of the last, and since they didn't do them, I didn't. </p> <p>My family shower, I just got my sister something. I know some Aunts and cousins helped, but she did most of it. I got her a gift card for a manicure and pedicure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623848 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 07:34:35 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 623848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about tailoring each gift specific to your friend's interest?</p> <p>Perfume sampler or Make up gadget (eyelash curler) for the girly girl<br /> Fancy olive oil and hot sauce for the home chef<br /> Popcorn with all the fixins for the home body</p> <p>Personalized stationary, fancy travel umbrella, fancy lotion &amp; hand sanitizer.</p> <p>I would be very happy receiving a bouquet of flowers as a thank you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623631 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 01:52:33 +0000 MaisyMay 623631@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave them a Christmas ornament and a box of chocolate apiece. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623582 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 01:10:51 +0000 sandy 623582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave my two best friends a gift set of Fresh bath products from Sephora along with some fancy chocolates. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623566 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 01:04:37 +0000 anonysquire 623566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I threw my sisters shower and didn't get a gift but maybe relatives don't count? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623562 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 01:02:54 +0000 pinkcupcake 623562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did. I gave gifts to all three hostesses - they really went out of their way to plan such a gorgeous shower for me. I gave gift cards but can't remember if they were Starbucks or Nordstrom cards. I think I gave around $50 each? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/thank-you-gift-for-baby-shower-hostess#post-623546 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 00:56:04 +0000 softcream 623546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>did you give your baby shower hostess(es) a thank you gift? i feel like i should, especially since the hostesses are planning it from out of town so they'll be flying in for it, and they tend to go fancy with their parties. if you gave a gift, what did you give? or what would you think would be appropriate? if anything, i may just have a floral arrangement delivered to each of them. </p>
