Best New Christmas Baby Shower Ideas, Themes and Invitations

I wish that I could pat myself on the back and say, “ATTA GIRL!” for these Christmas baby shower ideas but the truth is that holiday baby showers are hands down one of the easiest to style. All that’s required is the purchase of one or more of the decorating magazines (I personally adore Southern Living because of the natural decorations and the fantastic recipes) that are probably on both sides of you as you check out at the grocery store.
If your budget limits you to FREE Christmas baby shower ideas, which is probably why you landed on this page, by all means set your TIVO to record this year’s Martha Stewart’s holiday special and all of the reruns that the recorder can handle. The danger is that once you spend Christmas with Martha Stewart, nothing else can compare.

CHRISTMAS BABY SHOWER IDEAS
The upside of borrowing Martha Stewart's Christmas baby shower ideas, food suggestions and decorating tips from years past is that you can completely eliminate the guilt of not designing your own decorations, by doing something original and making meaningful substitutions here and there to change the look. Believe me, your friends and family members will treat you like a celebrity which makes it all the more important to make contributions so you can accept their compliments without feeling like a total fraud.

CHRISTMAS BABY SHOWER INVITATIONS
Do you really want to tackle the job of creating homemade baby shower invitations during one of the most stressful, busy seasons of the year? If so, my hat’s off to you, sister! But if you want to achieve genius status without spending lots of time juggling crafts supplies and paper, order the cards from one of the wonderful, professional printers online taking care that they are nicely personalized on both the face of the card as well as in the wording or poem that you have printed in a festive font that invites the recipient to share in the celebration of the arrival of your friend or family member’s new baby as well as the joy of the Christmas season. Nobody will care that you didn’t use a free printable or template to create the baby shower invitations and you will have more time to devote to putting together a menu, cooking wonderful food and putting to good use the Christmas baby shower ideas that you pick up from the magazines, holiday specials and websites that specialize in all things stylish and trendy in the world of baby shower decorations and gifts.

CHRISTMAS BABY SHOWER THEMES
To some, a spiritual, Christian baby shower theme is the only one that is appropriate so knowing your guests and their beliefs is important when planning your holiday celebration. The focus when hosting a religious themed holiday baby shower might be the "Reason for the Season" . The hostess that styled one of the most touching and beautiful showers that I have ever attended of this type decorating using little else beyond creative lighting and natural decorations that she gathered from a nearby forest as decorations. As a talented calligrapher, she put her gift to work and made her own invitations. The wording was scripted using brown ink on sheets of aged parchment paper and rather than including a poem with the details, she included a Bible verse about the birth of Jesus.

CHRISTMAS BABY SHOWER FAVORS
Another area where a Christmas baby shower works in our favor is that we can use our own Christmas decorations! Even your family’s Christmas tree will seem as if you decorated it especially for the occasion if you hang stockings that have been personalized with your guests’ names in and around your existing ornaments. Fill them from top to toe with goodies and instruct your guests to remove them at the end of the party and take them home as favors showing your appreciation that they took time out of their hectic schedules to attend.
