Handmade christening gowns make a great gift idea. They have beautiful layers of lace that is like a robe, so it can fit most children, no matter what size they are. It is something the person will cherish for a long time. It is a gift they can enjoy long after the christening ceremony is over.  A christening gown is like a family heirloom. They are stored in drawers, shoe boxes and attics. Some have been handed down through seven generations of the same family; others have been worn by as many as 12 different children. Most were handmade by family members harking back to a tradition that has sadly been lost in recent years. If there is a christening gown that has been handed down make sure all the family know about it, so they can use it. Quite often they have been stored away in a bottom drawer and have been completely forgotten about. Handmade christening gowns will be remembered and valued even after the christening ceremony. People may forget the christening ceremony but they are unlikely to forget the christening gown.
