Gifts for Shower Hosts

Did any of you get anything for the people who threw your shower?  I have three people throwing mine (my mom, her cousin, and my SIL) and wanted to get them a little something, but need ideas!

Re: Gifts for Shower Hosts

  • Both the ladies who hosted my shower have young babies and are hippy/natural. I made them both some organic, all natural, GMO free diaper cream.

  • i didn't want to go with any of the cliche, typical gifts (umbrellas, bath stuff, pedi's, wine, etc). i had a handful of hosts. three of them got an infinity bracelet (etsy, $20) and a note that thanked them for their infinite love and support. two did get somewhat cliche gifts (bath/body stuff) but i opted for gift sets from lush instead of the usual stuff (they were involved differently with the planning). 
    Thanks to our wonderful RE our family is complete!
