Online baby shower


There seems to be lots of bloggers out there at the moment who just had or are about to have babies, so I thought it might be a good opportunity for a fun swap. Kind of like an online baby shower, only everyone gets presents.

I thought anyone who is interested can sign up and I'll partner everyone up randomly and you send your partner a little handmade gift for their bubba.

Want to play? Here's how it works.

If you're interested you can let me know by commenting on here or e-mailing me by the 6th of July. A day or two after that I'll let you know who your swap partner is. And because being a new mum must be more busy than I can even imagine, I thought we could give it a nice long deadline and get everyone to try and have there little presents sent off by the end of August.

Let me know if you'd like to join in. If you want you can also leave some details about your little one (if you know any already, for example if it's a boy or girl, or how old they are if they're already born) in case it will help your swap partner.

Looking forward to finding all the new mums or mums-to-be out there.

I don't qualify as my youngest is 18 months old, but it's a great idea and I'll be excited to see what you share with each other.

What a cool idea! I'd like to participate! Sounds like fun. I don't know what I'm having yet... I'm hoping for a girl.

I would like to sign up too, but baby won't be there before december...perhaps that's a little too late?

I'd love to join! I have a two-month old little guy, but he's tall like his daddy, so I'm already pulling out 3-6 month stuff! We kind-of have a cowboy theme going in his room, but are also big star wars/sci-fi fans. We love all things hand-made, though, and I know that I'll just love whatever comes our way!

This sounds so cool! I'm a newish blogger, but I'm trying to get involved with others out there, and this would be a great way to do it! I'm due in two weeks, but we don't know what we are having.

i'd love to take part, too - i had my little girl just over four and a half months ago and didn't have a shower because we lived so far away from our friends and family, so the idea of having a virtual one, even if it is a little later, makes me smile!

magsandme said...

Spinning Pretty said...
