    Gather your supplies for your cheap baby shower centerpieces. You need some nice scrapbook paper, scissors, glue or tape, and Crystal Light containers. You can also use other containers such as soup cans or oatmeal boxes, as long as they're even on all sides.

  2. Step 2
    Trim your scrapbook paper down to size.

    Cut the height of your scrapbook paper down to size. If you're using smaller containers than Crystal Light containers, you can also wrap it around the container and see if the width needs some trimming as well.

  3. Step 3

    Leave the label on your Crystal Light container as this will give it a smooth surface under the paper. Simply wrap your paper around the container and glue or tape it. Depending on your paper, you can dress it up by putting another slim strip of coordinating paper or ribbon around the top or bottom of the container.

    Crystal Light containers and things like soup cans are typically waterproof so you can add some water and a fresh flower if you like, or use paper or silk flowers if you use oatmeal containers. I got these paper roses from the dollar store so you don't need to spend a lot of money for these.

  5. Step 5

    Use different designs of paper that coordinate for the best appearance. There are lots of designs meant for baby so of course you have tons of options!
