Baby Shower Personalized Candy Jar Favors

One of the hardest things, at least for me, to come up with when hosting any type of shower, is favors. One trend for baby showers has recently been personalized candy jars (with or without personalized candy in them).

These can be ordered online or you can get crafty and make your own. There are a ton of websites from which to choose from and it seems just as many price points to work with. But when it gets down to it they appear to be basically a glass jar with candy or almonds with cute sticker on the lid. A lot of them seem patterned after the old fashioned candy jars that one would see in candy shops but what really says ‘baby’ more than baby food jars?

So why not make you own? Add a little bit of your own flair to the favor. Save baby food jars (if you have a baby eating baby food), commission your friends to save some, or hit Hobby Lobby and buy them. Designing a sticker with names and dates is cute but if the baby does not have a name (or you are not privy to it) or if you do not know the gender of the baby figuring out what to put on the sticker can be harder. If that is the case; you could wrap the lid in baby themed fabric and a ribbon; cute but not over the top.

Then there is the candy for the jar. Personalized? Plain? Special Colors? Candy or nuts? M&Ms or Jelly Bellies? In my not so humble opinion, I would stay away from nuts, in the treat world they seem to be rather polarizing as well as have a potential for allergies. Again, if you know the name and gender of the baby personalized candy is easy. If you do not- I would go with pastel or primary colors for the candy depending on the expectant mothers taste.

Even within a particular kind or favor there are so many variations to make it unique to the expectant mother and event. You can make it as fancy as you want or as basic as you want. The options and combinations are limitless.
