Today i got invited to a baby shower as well as a farewell morning tea for a friend of mine from work.
We had a lovely catch-up….we talk a lot, catching up with gossips and lots of yummy food….what could be better than that?

Its always good when i get to go out and break out of my boring daily routine….and i really enjoyed catching up with my friends from work.

For this baby shower I put together goodies basket for my dear friend, it has a selection of stuff i have collected for her
ever since i found out she was pregnant. However, along with the goodies i want to give her something a bit more special and personal…
so i put together one small thing specially for her. I know you would probably guess that i made her a baby hat or a beanie right?
Well not this time…i will probably knit a hat for her baby boy when he is here,
but this time i put together a home made baby free range towels in the egg cartoon.

I got the idea when i saw a similar thing in a gift shop a while back….it was from a company called “babycupcakes” from Australia,
I have always wanted to try making it coz it looks so simple and very cute….so i decided to give it a go a couple of days ago.
I also included her official due date and her name in the ’special instructions” note inside the egg cartoon….
this was not included in the original design of baby eggs by “babycupcakes”, i just thought adding them in will be more personalized for her.

Btw, I’m a bit bummed that i forgot to take pics of the whole goodies that i prepared for her…
i finished wrapping the whole thing pretty late last night and i didn’t get a chance to take pics of it this morning
as i was in a hurry to go so that i’ll make it to the baby shower on time LOL
But luckily i remembered to take some pictures of the home made gift i made for her, so here it is…
