Here are the ingredients and instructions on how to build up that Baby Brag Book,'
What you will need:
- 1 (8" by 8") scrapbook
- Various colored papers
- Glue
- Tape
- Stickers and any other decorative embellishments that you like
Instructions
You will be making a scrapbook for the expectant mother to be able to just insert photos of her new baby. A new mother rarely gets a chance to make a fun baby scrapbook (she's too busy with changing diapers, feeding the baby, and more). So this is a very helpful baby shower gift. With the 8" by 8" scrapbook, decorate each page with a baby theme.
You could make one page for bathtime, one page for bedtime, one page for play time, etc. Or choose another theme that you know the mother would like. You can decorate as much or as little as you want. Make the pages simple and sweet, or embellish them to the hilt. Just leave enough room for the photo! Sometimes "less is more", because you don't want to drown out the photo with all of the decorations.
Use stickers, poems, sayings, quotes, buttons, ribbons, etc to decorate with. On an 8" by 8" page, there is usually only enough room for one photograph, so leave enough space on the page for one 4" by 6" photograph. You can even find pre-decorated 8" by 8" scrapbooks for babies.
This is your gift to the mom - your time, your creativity, and your love. It will be great!
I have given this Baby Brag Book away to many of my friends and families. A Brag Book is not only good for baby showers but also bridal showers, etc.
