A new baby is certainly a reason to celebrate. Although you may not have a large budget, you can still find gifts that can be personalized for the new baby that aren't as expensive as traditional personalized and monogrammed items. Gifts under $20 are inexpensive but don't have to sacrifice anything in the way of quality or thoughtfulness. The new mom will be happy that you took the time to find a personalized gift for her new baby.
Personalized Security Blanket
A personalized security blanket can be purchased for as little as $20. These satin-trimmed blankets are super soft, and some have plush animals attached to them, making them more endearing for small babies. Submit the name of the baby to the company with your order and have it embroidered along the bottom of the blanket.
Personalized Bib
Every new mom needs a hefty supply of bibs for her baby so she's for eating messes. A personalized baby bib adds a personal touch to a rather generic baby gift. Buying a few bibs in different colors, shapes and designs with initials or names adds variety to a baby gift that costs around $4 per bib. For an even cheaper gift, purchase plain bibs and embroider a name or phrase on them yourself for a personalized touch.
Watercolor Birth Prints
For a mere $20, you can have a watercolor painting done for the new baby that displays vital information, such as the child's birth date, size and weight, along with any other special information and a verse about the baby. It's a thoughtful gift that can be placed in the baby's nursery and becomes an heirloom gift for the baby later in life.
Personalized Romper
If the baby you're gifting already has a distinct personality, a cheap, personalized baby romper can show that personality off loud and clear. For $20, you can customize a romper with lines of text in any font and color. Display a name or nickname or a funny phrase specific to the baby.
Personalized Tooth and Curl Set
It's fairly traditional for the mother of the baby to want to save his first fallen tooth and a lock of hair from his first haircut. Facilitate those memories by offering a personalized first tooth and curl set. For $20, you can purchase two silver-plated boxes engraved with the baby's name so that the parents always keep those small mementos safe.
