Posted on by

This is a fun DIY wedding project that will impress even your craftsy girlfriends. These pretty “baby cakes” or “cake bites” are a wonderful addition to a wedding dessert buffet or you could package them as an elegant and edible DIY favor. I found this easy-to-follow tutorial at cakejournal.com, an online journal of the very talented baker and designer Louise, who is from Denmark. The site is full of fun ideas, a confection gallery and lots of wedding inspiration, and Louise has a unique and engaging way of encouraging beginners to jump right in! Thanks, Louise:)

Bridal Shower Gift Ideas from LifeTips

Some popular bridal shower gifts today may include:

  • A Thin Digital Camera – Digital cameras are getting more and more compact. Every bride to be has a hundred different things to do and to remember. A thin digital camera will fit in her purse and let her take snaps of the different items she wants to remember so she can compare them all together later rather than trying to remember a certain shade or pattern
  • Comedy Gifts – A gift of comedy can be a funny book, a funny movie, or tickets to a comedy club – planning a wedding is stressful as all get out so giving them something to make them laugh is a great gift
  • A Day at the Spa – Go in with the other girls and pick up a spa gift certificate that lets her get a manicure, pedicure, hair done and even a massage – talk about shedding the stress and pampering her
  • Travel and Guide Books – Do you know where they are planning to have their honeymoon? Do they have more than one place they are talking about? Give her some guide and travel books to the different destinations so they can check out the different options and make their planning easier

Advice Book Shower Favors

I am working on some blank books that people can use at baby or bridal showers and weddings as either a guest book and/or an advice book. Guests can write in their advice or stories and it can double as a guest book. During the shower or event, it can be used to record which guest gave which gift for future reference. Then everything about that special day is recorded in one spot.

I made one of these books for a friend’s baby shower recently and it was fun to pass it around and read what others wrote as advice for a first-time mom. I am creating samples for baby showers, bridal showers and weddings and they can either be used as is or personalized with custom labels on the book cover and on the first page of the book.
