Why go with a wicker bassinet for a baby shower gift? A Moses basket can make a great present because you can fill the basket with all sorts of goodies for a new baby and new mommy.

I personally love creating and receiving thoughtful gifts. So, if you have a baby shower coming up, gather some baby-related items and put them together in a wicker bassinet, which could later be used for baby to sleep in, as a doll bed or to store baby essentials or toys.

A Moses basket filled with items surrounding a particular theme can prove to be a considerate gift option. You can be as general or as specific as your budget and time allows. Here are a few themes I came up with.

For a bed time theme, include a handmade or store-bought baby blanket, plush toy, rattle, cloth books, pacifier, pajamas and mobile.

For a bath time theme, include a hooded towel, wash cloths, baby liquid soap, baby lotion, baby powder, baby shampoo, diapers, wipes and a rubber ducky.

For a playtime theme, include a plush toy, soft, stackable rings, a non-breakable mirror, soft rattle, ball, music box and play outfit.

Color coordinate all of your gift items, making a present which is sure to be the envy of any baby shower. For a little girl, gather several pink items from the lists above or purchase your own list of pink products. For a little boy, focus on blue baby items.

But if you want to get really jazzy, try a pink and brown theme for a chic girl and green and red for a hip baby boy. Fashionable mothers-to-be will appreciate your thoughtfulness and ingenuity.

Find out what color the parents are using in the nursery and buy those colors, or better yet, buy nursery-related items, like a lamp, bookends and wall art in the chosen color scheme.

Of course, you don't have to use a theme at all. Whatever your choice, remember to be creative with your one-of-a-kind wicker bassinet. A baby bassinet can cost or save your baby's life. Choose your cradle wisely.
