Hosting a baby shower is a big job, and it's always nice to thank the person who planned your party. One great way to show your appreciation is with a baby shower hostess gift. After all, you'll be receiving lots of presents, and it's always nice to spread the love around.


The person kind enough to throw you a baby shower has likely poured their heart, soul, and hard-earned cash into throwing you a once-in-a-lifetime event. Make sure you give this special person in your life a thank-you gift that is unique, personal, and something that they will always remember. We've hand-picked 15 wonderful ways of expressing deep gratitude to the person who helped shower your baby with love, with price tags that range from high-end to surprisingly affordable.

Wine Bundle

A bottle of wine always makes for a lovely gift, but if you have the means and your friend threw you a stunning baby shower, gift them an entire bundle. Bright Cellars offers a variety of bundle options to choose from, including the Sparkling Wine Bundle, the Dinner Party Bundle, and the Mimosa Kit Bundle.

Letter Necklace

A timeless piece of jewelry will express how grateful you are to your hostess for the time and effort they put into your baby shower. Consider an initial necklace like this one from Ana Luisa. The customizable design adds a personal touch, and the 14K gold over sterling silver is hypoallergenic and water-resistant.

Firecracker Flower Arrangement

Flowers make everything better. Pretty bouquets can range significantly in price, but for a thank-you gift such as this one, have a floral company arrange a beautiful and bright bouquet for the dear person who showed you and your baby so much love. This one from Urban Stems is a customer favorite, and the fiery mix of textures and colors will brighten up any room.

Personalized Stationary

A stationary set like this one from Papier is a gift that keeps on giving. While you're giving your hostess something thoughtful and pretty as a thank you, they will also be able to give future thanks using the gift you gave them. Choose something monogrammed for a personalized effect, or include stationary with colors and patterns that you know your dear hostess will adore.

Double Picture Frame

So many memories were made at your baby shower, and countless more will come along once the baby is born. At your shower, be sure that someone snaps a picture of you and your hostess. Order a double picture frame like this one and put the image of the two of you in the picture frame on one side. Leave the other side blank and let your hostess know that the photo that will go there will be one of them with the new baby.

Wine and Cheese Basket

Planning and pulling showers off takes a lot out of most people, and your host will probably be wiped out after the big event. Give her a bottle of wine and some cheese and crackers to snack on. An evening with these yummy treats, a cozy chunky knit blanket, sweats, and a movie sounds like the ultimate end to a whirlwind weekend of shower-throwing.
