Wording on a baby shower invitation-registry?
I am having a “diaper shower” for a friend- where everyone brings diapers instead of gifts from a registry. How can I word “bring diapers as a gift” on the invitation.
I am having a “diaper shower” for a friend- where everyone brings diapers instead of gifts from a registry. How can I word “bring diapers as a gift” on the invitation.
Here’s my idea:
On the front: “Diaper Shower!”
On the inside: “______ is having a baby and diapers are the perfect gift! Please bring your diapers to (place) at (time) and join us for food, fun, and games!”
I hope that works!
I hope your friend knows that she will just be getting diapers for her shower. If not, this does not sound good. There are so many things that a baby needs and that is the whole point to a baby shower. If all she is getting is diapers you may have too many of the same size and she won’t get to use them all. Size one usually lasts until baby is less than 2 month old. I don’t think you should specify what to bring at all. People should bring what ever the want. I know alot of people like to make homemade quilts etc. which are so special.
Just a quick reference to how a diaper shower works. “A diaper shower asks that the only gifts be diapers” I have never head of this! a gift registry,yes,( and thank God for those!) but never a diaper shower. It is interesting, tho!

Registry…? People are registering with department stores (and so on) for baby showers?! How greedy.
Nevertheless. Miss Manners always said that there is no polite way to ask for a gift.
