The Idea: Pink Themed Baby Shower Favour
Whether you’re celebrating a baby girl or just love a good pink moment, these favours are a fab way to add a personal touch to your party. Think soft pastels, cute packaging, and a gorgeous scent, because why not?
I used these for the rose garden baby shower I hosted for my lovely friend, Rachel. I wanted something thoughtful that tied in with the rustic theme, and these heart-shaped candle holders were just the thing to thank guests for coming. 💐
Want to see how it all came together? You can check out the full party right here, it’s full of charming details and plenty of party inspo!
What you’ll Need
- Heart-shaped driftwood tealight holders: I found mine at The Range
- Pink rose-scented tealights: budget-friendly and beautifully scented, from Primark
- Cellophane wrap: to give them that polished, gift-ready look
- Pastel pink ribbon: for tying it all together (literally), from Hobbycraft
These pretty little favours cost around £1.70 each, making them a gorgeous and affordable way to thank your guests.
How to Make Them
- Place a tealight into each heart-shaped driftwood holder. I used pink rose-scented ones for that extra touch of charm.
- Wrap each candle holder in clear cellophane to keep it neat and gift-ready.
- Tie it up with a pastel pink ribbon; simple, sweet, and oh so pretty.
- Place one at each guest’s place setting so they’re greeted with a little gift as soon as they sit down. It’s a lovely way to make everyone feel special from the start.
A Poetic Touch
To make the table extra special, I framed a sweet little poem and placed it in the centre as part of the décor. It tied in beautifully with the candle favours and added a sentimental moment for guests to enjoy.
Here’s the poem I used:
Here is a candle that twinkles so bright,
It’s our gift for you to light,
On the day our star makes her way,
Please make a wish on our joyous day.
If you’d prefer to keep things simple, you can also attach this poem as a tag on each favour instead. I’ve created a free downloadable template you can print and use, just cut them out and tie them on with ribbon!
Why Guests Love Them
- They’re thoughtful, practical, and guaranteed to make your guests feel hapus (happy) and appreciated
- They double as décor and a keepsake
- They smell amazing and feel like a mini spa moment
- They show you’ve put care into every detail, without going over budget
Corrina’s Top Tip
If you’re hosting a gender neutral or eco-friendly shower, just swap the pink for another colour or use biodegradable packaging. Same charm, less waste!
