Eco-friendly shower ideas
Written by: P&N
Suggest these three easy tips to your baby-party planner to reduce your shower’s environmental impact.
- Go paperless by sending invitations via email. If you are pro-paper, consider plantable wildflower seed invites or options printed on recycled materials.

- Display a centerpiece that will have a life beyond the shower, such as a diaper cake or a bouquet made with bibs, rompers and more from The Baby Bunch.
