Crafty Ideas for Custom Baby Shower Invitations

If you enjoy being creative with crafts, creating your own custom baby shower invitations is a fun and exciting challenge. There are many different kinds of crafts you can do to make unique invitations. Here are a couple for you to try.

Using Beads
You can use beads in a variety of ways to make unique custom baby shower invitations. You could send beads and a piece of string in a box to each person on your guest list. Ask them to string the beads together and bring it as a bracelet for the mom-to-be. Or you can ask them to write a piece of advice for the mom-to-be for each bead and to bring the advice and beads to the party. At the party, you can make an advice necklace for the mom-to-be. You can also glue beads onto cardstock to create a design. On this one, you’re only limited by your imagination. You could create the outline of a baby out of beads or you could make the outline of a rubber duck with yellow beads.

Using Flowers
You can glue small plastic flowers to cardstock to create the front of the invitation. You’ll need a padded envelope and extra postage to mail these. Be sure to use a craft glue or hot glue gun that will make the flowers stick well to the cardstock. Dried flowers that have been laminated also make a beautiful cover for an invitation.
