If you are in charge of hosting a baby shower, consider an eco-friendly theme. Here are a couple cool ideas to get you started. First, order invitations and favors from Botanical Paperworks. These amazing invitations can be planted to grow wildflowers.

Pass on the traditional diaper cake centerpiece and decorate the table with a Baby Bunch. Choose from a bouquet or bucket filled with “flowers” made from rolled up organic baby clothes.

Most importantly, encourage guests to “wrap” gifts in reusable items to reduce waste. Try Furoshiki, the Japanese art of gift-wrapping with fabric. Check it out on Near Sea Naturals. With this method, small gifts could be wrapped in receiving blankets. For larger gifts use organic patterned fabric pieces that mom could reuse in the nursery.
