Homemade Baby Shower Invitations - Tips and Ideas for the Invites

If you're considering homemade baby shower invitations, you should know that there are lots and lots of ideas out there that aren't hard to make, but will make a really big statement.

By taking your time and planning ahead, as well as using some great ideas and tips, you will find that your baby shower invitations are not only individual, but special and fun too.

Know your wording

One of the most important things to know about homemade baby shower invitations is to have the right wording in place. You might have a fun or cute verse to put on your invitation, but there are still some essentials that you should really be considering, such as who the shower is for, the location with full address and possibly a map, the date and time, where the parents-to-be are registered, and RSVP information. If you are hosting the shower, then you should be offering your contact information.

Once you're done with that, you can get on to the really fun part of baby shower invitations, and that's making them.

Fun, easy ideas

There are lots of fun and simple ideas for homemade baby shower invitations, or you might find that you want to get a little bit more complex in your work. Here are some great ideas to get you going.

• Want to make the invitations on your computer? Consider choosing some good card stock, make sure you have plenty of ink, and set the wording for your invitations against a black and white photo of baby hands and feet. If you're having a girl, consider printing all the wording in dark pink, while dark blue will work for boys. You can dress these up a little bit by adding a piece of vellum paper and attaching it with a pink or blue ribbon at the top.
  
  
• Another great idea for homemade baby shower invitations is to consider making scrapbook style invitations and add decorations that way. You'll find everything you need to make beautiful invitations at your local craft store, and you might even find that it's easy and fun. As an added plus, many crafts stores offer classes which are free or inexpensive, so you can get inspiration and "how to" advice there.
  
  
• Many people make their own cards by stamping now, and if this sounds fun to you, then you might want to consider this technique for your homemade baby shower invitations. The great thing is that there are many stamping kits at craft stores, so you might find that you can take care of all the invitations with just one kit.

No matter how you want to make your homemade baby shower invitations, this is a great way to show your personality, the personalities of the parents-to-be, and to personalize your event.

Plus, it's likely that you will save some money in the process, so if you want to have first class invitations for your baby shower, but don't want to spend too much money, these ideas might help you to make your own homemade baby shower invites.
