New Spin on Baby Showers!

The new trend in Baby Showers...Open House Style! With everyone's busy schedules, family events, kid's sports & activities, the weekend are far from relaxing. Open House events, such as Baby Showers makes it very convenient for your guests who have those jam-packed weekends.


Yesterday, I attended my first one and it was wonderful! You go at your leisure and leave when you feel fit. The Mom-to-Be opens her gifts when you arrive. This idea I feel it is much more personable because instead of your gift being one out of the mound, you actually get to hand it to her when she is not being overwhelmed! It is also nicer for the visitors because they do not have to spend an hour watching the guest of honor open one after the other. It is just a more relaxed down to earth event where your attendees can mingle and enjoy some appetizers.

For favors they gave a very practical yet personal gift. They made Paper Clip Bookmarks! Each one had the first initial of the guest on it which was a nice touch.

I think that an Open House Shower is one that Mom's-to-Be should consider. It will not be for everyone, but it will fit for some!
