I simply adore customizable gifts. Adding a name or monogram to an item makes it so much more special and personal. I especially love giving unique and personalized baby gifts since it's such an exciting time for families. That's why I've partnered with Dreft, the #1 pediatrician recommended baby detergent, to share their new Dreft By You gift packages.
Gifts are my love language. I love to receive them, but I also love to give them. It makes me feel so good to give someone a beautiful gift that they know I chose specifically for them. If I can personalize or customize the gift then that's even better. When I found out Dreft had created a new, , I knew I wanted to order one for our newest neighbor. Sweet Siena Elizabeth is a tiny bundle of pure love and I knew this would be the perfect gift for her and her parents. I mean, who wouldn't appreciate a cute gift that's actually useful too?! Plus, I knew I’d be gifting them the scent of love. A recent survey found that 8 out of 10 parents claimed that the Dreft scent actually makes them feel bonded with their little one. I know this was definitely true for me.
I hopped online and within minutes of visiting the Dreft by You website, I had created a giftable package for little Miss Siena that included a customized bottle of one of Dreft’s trusted formulas and a matching bodysuit for baby Siena for only $25 shipped. I chose Stage 1: Newborn Deft, but Deft purtouch, a 65% plant-based baby detergent made with naturally-derived ingredients to be gentle on baby’s skin, is also available. I love that Dreft offers a variety of products that are tough on stains, but gentle on baby’s skin.
Each gift comes perfectly packaged and ready for gifting. There was even a handwritten note included in my Dreft By You order! What a special touch from the Dreft team!
As I mentioned, when you're you can choose which trusted, hypoallergenic formula of Dreft you'd prefer, but you can also choose the design on the bottle and bodysuit. You can select the color of the label (with multiple options!) and the pattern. All of the choices are sweet, especially the animal designs, but I was drawn to the pink heart pattern for baby Siena.
Isn't it darling?! You can see that it says, "Exclusively for baby, Siena Elizabeth," and it even has the signature, "With love, Your favorite neighbors." I love that you can create a personalized message! It would be especially helpful if you're sending this gift long-distance since the message is written right on the bottle instead of a tiny slip of paper that can easily get overlooked.
The bodysuit that’s included is just adorable, and if you've ever had a baby then you know how accurate the term little laundry maker actually is! If you decide on an animal design for your bottle then you'll get a coordinating bodysuit with the animal on it. They're super cute too!
You might have seen it in the box above, but there was another special surprise in the package. Included was a $2 off coupon for a future Dreft purchase. I'm sure any new parent will appreciate this considering how many items on their registries are washable fabrics.
While the Dreft By You package is ready for gifting, I decided to include a few other things since we're very friendly with Siena's family. I sewed her a baby bib, also called a Bapron (baby apron), since we all know how messy babies can get. I prewashed the fabric with some Dreft that I had on hand and I couldn't get enough of that iconic baby scent. It instantaneously brings me back to when my children were babies and I could soak in that lovely smell of babyhood that Dreft provides. It's probably one of my favorite scents ever.
I also picked up a simple wooden crate and a white initial from our local craft store to hold my gift. I hot-glued the letter onto the crate and it can double as a functional piece of decor for baby's room or a useful storage box. We received one of these when our daughter was born and I use it to store her hairbows and headbands.
I'm really pleased with the way this personalized baby gift came out and can't wait to give it to Siena's family. I know they're going to love my Dreft By You creation! Be sure to order your before they're gone!
