Baby Shower Invitations




This month I will be hosting my very first baby shower for a very close friend Molly Severson. Molly and her husband Nate are Westin and my best friends in California. They have been the best of friends, travel buddies, sit-on-the-couch-do-nothing pals, and both stood up with us on the Galloway School steps for our wedding ceremony. Molly and Nate will be welcoming a little girl to the world this coming March and I am really pumped to give Molly a little shower before they make the big move back to Minnesota the following week.

I have been really obsessed with stamps lately--using them both for some of our wedding DIY projects as well as here for the baby shower invitations. These invitations were a free download found on Martha Stewart's website. The baby shower is a "Go Green Shower"--guests are encouraged to bring a book for the baby's library instead of cards and to use the book plate that was included in the invitation. Guests are also encouraged to bring their gifts unwrapped and to use the tags and hangers I will provide at the shower to display the gifts--less paper-less waste!

I still have a few projects ahead of me--making the miniature book garland, cover books for display, and work on the games and menu. I really hope that the shower is fun and Molly and Nate are able to take some great gifts with them back to Minnesota!

Any other recommendations for baby shower decor, gifts, menu, etc.?
