If you are throwing a baby shower for your friend, buying the gift is the easy part! Hosting the shower requires a bit more effort!
A baby shower celebrates the expected birth if a new child. In the old days, it was a celebration of new life about to begin. But it was also a chance to get more baby clothes that you could possibly hand-saw yourself in nine months, what with needing to bale the hay, milk the cows, weed the vegetable gardens and wash clothes in the stream along with all your other tasks.
Today a baby shower still represents the joy of friends and family as they await the birth of a new child. A new baby represents the potential of a fresh life to all of us. It represents the cycle of life: it's an event of hope and joy!
We have gathered some ideas here for you to make your baby shower an event your friends and family will always remember and since you are going to do it right, and do it with style, it will be an event you will remember with happiness too.
So start your themed baby shower with some adorable pea in the pod invitations. Here are some ideas on how to pull it off:
1. Write your party details on a small note card along with the heading: "There is a pea in Kelly's pod!" Then glue the note cards onto separate packets of pea seeds. Write "hand cancel" on the mailing envelopes to prevent the seed invitations from getting crushed in the mail.
2. Cut pea pad shapes from green card stock. For each pea pod, write your party details on one side. Glue green glitter or craft stone "peas" down the center of the other side. Mail all your adorable invitations in padded envelopes.
3. Use a fine-tip permanent marker to print party details on inexpensive plain garden gloves. If only patterned gloves are available, write the party details on card stock and insert the invitations in the garden gloves. Mail your fabulous garden gloves invitations in padded envelopes.
So there are just a few pea in the pod invitation ideas for your next themed baby shower. They are creative and imaginative ways to delight your guests and give them a sneak peak into what's to come! There are many decisions to be made as you prepare for the shower. But it can be so much fun and exciting to plan for your friends or family so enjoy each and every moment! Using some of these ideas, it will not have to be a ton of work for you and it does not have to cost you a fortune. So enjoy!
