Part 2: The Guest Book.
The Guest Book is an essential part of the baby shower. Not only does it document who attended but has the potential to be a gift of love that will certainly be treasured for years to come. Books that serve a duel purpose and ones thoughtfully composed give mom the perfect jumpstart on the precious memory keeping for her soon to be new born. 

The Binth Baby Book is perhaps not the first book that pops into mind when choosing a guest book for a shower. However, not only will it be an incredibility amazing shower gift to give the mom but also has ample blank pages in the back of the book for guest to write their best wishes. Perfect for a guest book. Small glassine envelopes could easily be adhered to the pages, holding cards, gift tags + other small mementos. The Binth Baby Book is artfully printed + a beautifully handbound family heirloom. Worthy of perfect handwriting and the most luxurious pen! 

The refillable scrapbook by Kolo is another great option and is available in a handful of colors + sizes. Guests have the freedom to write thoughtful sentiments + quirky advise to the expecting mom and baby. Provide colorful pens and a polaroid camera for a spontaneous + spunky take on a guest book. With a glue stick and scissors, the designated assistant can simply take small snippets of wrapping paper + clips of ribbon and adhere to the pages as mom unwraps gifts, thoughtfully recording the gifts + the gift-giver under each snippet + clip.

Psalms choose a Kolo book in a cheeful green + had the idea to give each guest an adhesive backed 4x6" piece of colorful cardstock + a pen at the upcoming baby shower we are hosting. In doing this, guest would not have to wait for the guest book to be passed around or for someone to finish up. Each guest equipped with their own piece of the guest book, can take their time to write + contribute as they wish. Post-shower, we will simply adhere the cards into the Kolo scrapbook for mom Sara. Color + fun + very useful!
