The Design Experts at BigDotofHappiness.com get to see all sorts of creative baby shower invitation wording ideas and phrases every day – it’s so much fun! One trend we have noticed recently involves the wrapping of baby shower gifts – or rather, the lack thereof. It seems that some Hostess Heroes, in an effort to free up the mom-to-be for more socialization at the party, are asking guests to bring unwrapped baby shower gifts instead of wrapped ones. The unwrapped gifts are then displayed on tables for all to see, and the Mommy-To-Be has more time to socialize with friends and family. Although we all love the classic idea of watching the guest of honor open each gift individually in front of everyone, this idea has definite benefits as well! It can even be explained right on your baby shower invitations using the following adorable rhyme:

Your thoughtful gift will be put on display,
So no need to wrap in any way.
A ribbon or twine will do just fine,
Leaving (mom-to-be’s name) free to visit and dine!

This unique baby shower idea may be great for parties with a lot of guests, or for hostesses who are trying to adhere to a specific time frame. Which scenario would you prefer: Arranging for unwrapped baby shower gifts to be displayed for everyone to see, or for the Mommy-To-Be to open each gift in front of her guests?
