My three closest friends are hosting a baby shower for me this weekend and I didn't know what to give them as a thank you that didn't cost a zillion dollars, so this is what I came up with. I went in on a case of these drink carriers with three friends, (which made each carrier 35 cents-- check out www.qwikstock.com), and then decorated them with the bunny from A New Little Someone, cardstock and ribbons. The printed strips of paper are actually adhesive page border strips. I actually spray painted the blue box before decorating (thanks Silvia!). Instead of a gift tag, I used embroidered pins with the girls' initials. The carrier is filled with 4 for $10 Bath and Body Works soaps.

Those are really cool! That is a brilliant idea to spray paint them. What a fun new gift idea. I went to the website and it wouldn't work..... I would love to get some of these. Good luck w/ your baby shower!

What a great idea!! Love the colors - very cute! I think I might have to do Christmas themed ones for my kids' school and Sunday School teachers. ~TFS~
Try this link (or copy and paste) to get to the page where the drink carriers are. I'm not sure why it isn't working from the other link. The name of the company is Qwik Stock. The carriers come in cases of 200 for $70 including shipping. We split that four ways and each got 50 for $17.50.
