How to Make Diaper Favors Out of Napkins
Before buying favors for your baby shower, consider making your own diaper favors out of cloth napkins. Or use good-quality paper napkins to save money, and reward your guests with a handmade treat. Diaper favors are easy to make out of napkins because they only require very simple folding. These diapers can hold almost any special treat for your baby shower guests, but wrapping the diaper around a homemade cookie is a popular choice. Find napkins that match your theme, such as pink napkins for a girl or jungle-themed napkins for an animal theme. Does this Spark an idea?

Tips & Warnings
Personalize your diaper favors by writing on them with fabric paint or marker, "It's a Boy!" or "Welcome, Baby!"
Play a game with your diaper favors. Place a melted chocolate bar inside one of the napkins, and whoever gets the "dirty diaper" wins a prize.
Place your diaper favors in a basket and put it by the door, or use it as a centerpiece on your table.
For a cheaper alternative, cut fabric into squares instead of using cloth napkins.
