Beautiful Baby Gift Presentation Ideas

1. Beatrix Potter Gift Wrapping Idea

This is one of the most beautiful baby gift presentation ideas we’ve come across. We couldn’t find the source but here’s how you can imitate it:

1. 1. White gift wrapping paper*
   2. Pink Satin ribbon, 1″ wide*
   3. Silk flowers like these green hydrangeas*
   4. Beatrix Potter printable. (I printed a Baby’s First Year Calendar and then the customer cancelled the order. I’m trying to come up with ways to use the gorgeous pictures. This is one of the best ideas. We also make OOAK Baby Books by upcycling composition books!)

 

2. Gift Box Wrapped in a Receiving Blanket

My sister gave me a vintage baby blanket at my baby shower for our firstborn. It was a receiving blanket my grandmother made for me when I was born! It was a special gift, made even more special because it survived not only the baby days of my younger siblings, but also my sister’s 3 babies. Truly amazing. It was white flannel with a hand-crocheted border. 27 years old when I got it. Well-used, but still in perfect shape.

You may not have a story-blanket to do this gift-wrapping idea, but we still think it’s special. (Unknown origin.)

 

 

3. Fuzzy Bear Takes a Hot Air Balloon Ride

HipHooRae.com used this as a centerpiece at a Baby Shower, but we think it would make a fun experience for the mommy-to-be at her unwrapping session.

 

 

4. Box of Cupcake Onesies and Socks

1. Find this pretty gift idea here. You can buy decorative cake boxes at craft stores like Hobby Lobby, or on Amazon* here. Then all you’ll need to finish the presentation is some ribbon to wrap the box. Because you want the pretty onesie cupcakes to show through the box window.

 

 

5. Brown Paper Lullaby Gift Wrap

All you need is brown kraft paper, a marker and some twine for a unique gift wrapping idea. Go here for more information.

 

 

 

6. Twine Wrapped Gift Box With Baby Cutouts and Mini Clothespins

This is a sweet idea that is easy to copy, and makes it look as if you put a lot of thought into your gift. Find more info here.

 

 

7. Glam Up a Simple Gift Bag

Sometimes we have a generic, solid color gift bag in our stash, either an upcycle that’s in good shape yet, or we bought a multi-pack at one time. These can be spiced up with ribbon and printables, like we show you in this post. The geometric design came up because we needed a gift bag to match our Geo Gold Baby Congratulations card. You can decorate yours to fit a theme, e.g. wrap a bag to look like a tutu outfit.

 

 

Unusual Baby Gift Presentation Ideas

8. Personalized Tin Bucket of Clothes

SomewhatSimpleLiving.com bought this tin bucket to hold an assortment of baby items, then painted a chalkboard square with the baby’s name. How sweet is that?

 

 

9. Laundry Basket with a Tiny Clothesline

Find the how-to for this super useful gift idea at holidappy.com.

 

 

10. Baby Boy Outfit Wrapped in a Baseball Glove

Another cute and unusual gift presentation by somewhatsimpleliving.com.

 

 

11. Tractor Diaper Cake

This is a super impressive gift – or could even be a part of the baby shower décor!

Find more information here.

 

 

12. Elephant Swaddling Blankets

Search for a tutorial for rolling towels into an elephant shape (apparently a cruise ship staple). Then try it with swaddle blankets.

 

 

13. Diaper Caddy Baby Gift

This is a gift I would have used over and over when I had my littles. I mean, what could be more convenient than a caddy with all the things, ready to be moved wherever you need it? Because we all know, diaper changes don’t just happen at the changing station. Sometimes a house is too tiny to have a changing station. We really, really like this gift idea. Buy the caddy here*.
