A baby shower is a great event that heralds the coming of a new addition to the family. This occasion is usually announced through a baby shower invitation, sent to the guests, or a baby announcement. A baby shower invitation can say a lot of things about the event, other than the details about where and when it will be. Other details which may be specified or written on the baby shower invitation wording are the theme or motif of the shower, how many babies are to be expected, and the gender of the baby.
There are many different themes for a baby shower which can be used also for the baby shower invitation. These themes are usually what dictate the general appearance and ambience of the event. Themes can be anything from a color to an animated character to an animal. Color themes are usually blue for boys and pink for girls. Some other colors for boys are green and brown while girls usually have yellow or lavender. In some cases, the baby shower invitation may be dominantly made up of the color theme to indicate the gender of the soon to come baby. Some colors complement each other and are often used for the entire theme for decorations and the baby shower invitation as well as the giveaways.
Invitations can include actual baby bottle invitations with a tag attached to it with the printed details. Baby bottles can be filled with Hershey's Kisses chocolate or Reese's pieces. This unique baby shower invitation idea can also be done in the form of baby food containers filled with chocolates or hard candies. Popular food containers are the Gerber brand, the smaller the better. Expectant parents can get in touch with other parents with babies who are eating soft or semi solid food and ask for the containers.
Other unique baby shower invitation ideas are to use bibs or small, plain baby shirts to print the invitation details on them. For this baby shower invitation idea, it is best to use plain or single colored bibs and shirts. The printing may be in the form of paint or embroidery. Embroidery may take longer and be more expensive than the paint printing.
Cards often have the announcement on top and the finer details printed at the bottom with regards to the venue and the date of the baby shower. Folded ones have the announcement on the front and the details when the card is opened. The preferences of the parent or parents are often followed for the baby shower invitation wording.
You might think that hand made baby shower invitations will be a huge hassle, and this might be the case. If you are planning the entire baby shower and doing everything alone, then you should probably look for a printable baby shower invitation kit instead. These are easier kits than hand made invitations. You can simply upload something on your computer, type in your information, and print them out. |
