There have been countless variations on writing wishes for baby or parenting tips at baby showers. Here's a simple and beautiful idea worth borrowing: set out a typewriter for guests to write their keepsake notes.

The vintage typewriter worked perfectly for this 1920s inspired shower celebrating Britta's pregnancy. The typewriter was one among many thoughtful touches from Lily Chic Events, and guests typed their wishes on paper that was part of a custom printable package from Jennifer Birkhead Design.
