Creating a Keepsake Gift with a Personalized Baby PIllow



By Jackie Lee

Every new mom receives her fill of practical gifts. You know all the stuff she needs as a new mom, but a personalized baby pillow makes a memorable and personal gift. It is a gift that will be remembered and cherished long after the baby bottles have been given to charity.

If you are not crafty or don't have the time to make a personalized baby pillow yourself, don't worry you can still gift this special item. There are craftspeople online who will be willing to make this item for you, or they may already make them and you can just purchase one they have made. You can check at places like etsy dot com for these types of personal handmade gifts. If you have decided to make your own, here are a few ideas.

What is a personalized keepsake baby pillow anyway? Depending on how you look at it, it can be a few different things, and all of them would make a great gift. You can personalize a baby pillow with the baby's name, date of birth, height and weight. This makes a one of a kind commemorative kind of pillow. You can add the information to the pillow in a number of ways. Depending on what you like to do you could embroider, stencil, or even use applique. Your creativity is the only limit in this project.

You can also include in the gift a keepsake item such as a handprint or footprint kit. You could create a kit if you wanted to, with small tins ~ of increasing size, say 5. These tins would be for the child's handprint every year for the first five years. If you make this, include the material for the child to put their hands in as well as the tins. You can also find pre made kits like this.

Other keepsakes you can include in your gift are a tin to keep a lock of hair from the first hair cut, or the first tooth given to the tooth fairy.

When creating a keepsake gift you can commemorate any milestone. Creating a keepsake gift given with a personalized baby pillow is a great way for new parents to be able to track and make memories for each milestone their child approaches.

When you create a gift that includes both a keepsake and a personalized baby pillow you create not only a gift but a way for parents to continue to bond with their child as time goes on. Every new mom will appreciate that you took the time and effort and will cherish your gift forever.
