I received my first shower invitation in the mail!
My thought, after first thinking, ‘Ahhh! This is getting real!’ was, ‘How frickin’ cute is this invitation?’ The answer: SO CUTE!
My invitation was made especially for me and my love of Cherries.

How cute is the fruit themedness (What? That’s a word)! Apparently the other guests received invites featuring other fruits. My mom and sister’s had strawberries, one friend’s was citrus, and another sent me a picture of her watermelon invite.
I am blown away by the amount of work she put into this shower already. BM F (the door watcher) went all out on these, and rumor has it that the fruity goodness doesn’t stop there. All the food and favors will be fruit themed, as well! I CAN’T WAIT!
Okay, so here’s the question. What are you giving your shower-throwers (technical term)? I want to get them a gift that shows how grateful I am for all the time and effort they put into throwing me this shower. I’d love some suggestions!

Um, so so SO cute! You could do a “shower” themed gift…and make baskets with fruit-themed bath products! 
Oh my gosh — I scrolled back up and noticed that all the STAMPS are fruit, too! Amazing attention to detail!
I love love love it! Your hostesses are so cute, I love the wording!
For shwoer gifts, what about soemthign they can use to pamper themselves after all their hard work? I’m not sure what I’m doing for mine, but mayeb a gift certificate for a manicure, they could even use it for your wedding! If you arent already planning on doing so.
Those are so stinking cute! You have very creative friends!
Maybe some strawberries from Shari’s Berries? The strawberries are more expensive, but they have cherries for $20! http://www.berries.com/jump.jsp?itemID=726&itemType=PRODUCT&path=1%2C2%2C9%2C76&iProductID=726
Those are really, really cute. What nice friends you have! For a gift, maybe some yummy chocolate covered strawberries and other fruits. I would loooove those as a gift!
Sounds like a cute shower theme! The little watermelons are so cute!
Love these!! Finding a fruity gift would be apropros (although I don’t know exactly what that would be…)
my hostess gifts are themed with relaxation… i stocked up at Marshalls on bath scrubs, yankee candles, books on relaxation & health, and adding in DD gift cards to let them start their days off right!
for the other party hosts we’re doing wine themed gifts - bottle of wine, wine carrier bag, pretty apron, and some crackers/fruit/cheese.
FRUIT OF THE MONTH CLUB! haha j/k
Everyone has seen that series premiere of Everybody loves Raymond right?? LoL
@Miss Bruschetta: Super cute story about the stamps… F sent her husband to the post office to mail the invites. F told him about the fruits stamps, but said they are for postcards, so you’ll probably have to use more than one. When he came back he told her, “You’d be very proud me, I used all the red and pink fruits for the pink polka dot envelopes and the green fruits for the green envelopes.” I was so impressed that he was the one to line those stamps up so perfectly and color coordinated.
How cute are those envelopes?!
I have my MIL a “shower” inspired gift, like Bruschetta suggested. I had a loufa, Bath & Body Works shower gel, and a cute, colorful umbrella.
Thanks for all the great suggestions ladies 
@Mrs. Sushi: I LOVE the shower theme with the umbrella! The umbrella is SUCH a cute idea
those invites are CUTE! i love the fruit details. i would give them fruit-smelling things… maybe shampoo, lotion, bubble baths, candles, etc. or a fondue pot with some chocolate bars and fruits (strawberries, bananas…)
Such a cute invite! I got my shower-throwers some body wash and a monogrammed umbrella (great deal from ebay). Then I attached a cute little thank you note and used a saying I found on here, something along the lines of, “I hope your next shower is as great as mine.” I think for yours, you could do something really cute with a fruit theme with body washes, candles, or maybe even a real fruit bouquet from somewhere like edible arrangements.
So cute!! I’m berry hungry just reading about it!…. sorry I just had to join in!
Wow, your girls definitely deserve SOMETHING because those are amazing! And soooo cute! The fruit wording is crazy cute!
amazing!
maybe you could go on an etsy spree and put together a nice collection of customized gifts? (clutch, accessories etc)
those are SO cute! I love that they used different fruits…and all the fruit puns.
Aww, they are super cute!! So bright and vibrant and the theme is cute too! I can’t help looking them. =)
