Do your guests deserve more than an invitation stuffed in an envelope? Then send their invitation in a baby bottle. This unique invite is certain to make a splash on the baby shower scene.
The invitation:
This invite is as simple as it sounds. An invitation is placed in a baby bottle. The baby bottle is then addressed and stamped. Of course you'll want to give your invite a little pizzazz. Decorative ribbon can accompany the invitation inside the bottle. Consider finding bottle with a pink or blue lid if you know the baby's gender.
Creating the invitation:
You'll need to purchase a clear baby bottle for every invite, adhesive labels, stamps, and decorative ribbon. Using a clear bottle will ensure your guests understand there is a message inside. You'll need to create 8 inch by 5 inch invitations. Roll them into tight curls, tie them with ribbon and slide into the bottle. You'll need to print the addresses on printing labels (such as Avery labels) which will be adhered to the bottle. Make sure to purchase adhesive postal stamps since the lickable kind may not adhere to the bottle.
Variations:
Since your honoree has the best use for the bottles, find baby shower games where the invites are encouraged to bring the bottle back to the shower. Curl the game pieces along with the invitation.
Invitation wording or poems:
