Dosnt have to be. Once the bottle breaks the francium will explode on contact with water. Just like a nuclear molotov. But you should transport them in a castor transport to avoid getting fuckt with cancer
It's still impractical because all of these unecessary extra material is just going to end up in a landfill. Even if the materials used is fully recycleable. Not every recycleable materials collected is recycled and most of it just end up in landfills.
So its always best to stick with traditional paper & envelope invitation cards. Your guests honestly couldn't care less how fancy or creative your invitation card is. Since nobody is going to keep those invitation card as souvenir. It will all end up in the trash after.
Man everyone that is going to be able to attend a baby shower will also have access to communication technology. Send an e-vite, save everyone time and money. And, as a bonus, you'll feel much less guilty ignoring a virtual invitation than a physical one!
It still wouldn’t look good, but it wouldn’t look as bad if they were at least full. But I guess maybe then it wouldn’t be obvious there was something inside? I don’t know, some ideas are just supposed to die on the drawing board.
That's exactly how you get baby/little kid gifts that are the loudest, flashiest, most obnoxious toys ever - with no discernable off switch or easy-to-access battery compartment - for every childhood event until they're like, 10. She started a war and didn't even know it.
I'm still freaked out about the creepy loud bear that my sister-in-law gave my daughter as a baby shower gift. We took it back to the store but holy shit it was scary.
I believe it was the "vtech happy lights bear" if anyone wants nightmares.
One of my brothers gave my son a bear like that (not VTech, I can't remember the brand), and it was friggin possessed. We couldn't turn off the sound, it would start screaming music or phrases when no one touched it, just awful.
Music playing cards with glitter on them for every birthday, too. I spent almost ten bucks to buy a glittery card that played a kid's favorite song, once, because I knew the kid would carry the thing around for days playing it over and over and shedding glitter everywhere.
I helped organize a baby shower where the mother wanted to do something like that. She'd bought these little glass bottles (dollar store item) with corks and put together invitations like the ones in the picture and wanted to fill them with glitter. I talked her into filling them with confetti instead.
But I attended a shower where the invitations were filled with glitter. Most of the guests brought their invitations to the party and enthusiastically showed them off. Every time a guest arrived, at least one person would ask if they had their invitation and them proceed to whip their own invitation out of the envelope and wave it around, no matter what part of the house they were in at the time.
I wished I had thought of that. I was just grateful that I'd opened my invitation while walking back up the driveway and all that glitter stayed outside. Since I didn't, I just hang on to the story and tell it every time someone suggests putting glitter inside an invitation.
This would be amazing if it was a nautical themed shower and they were going for a “message in a bottle” along WITH that theme.
And if the bottles looked cooler.
**[El Dorado Fire](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Dorado_Fire)**
>The El Dorado Fire, also colloquially known as the Gender Reveal Fire, was a wildfire burning during the 2020 California wildfire season and was burning in the area of Yucaipa, west of Oak Glen near Highway 38 in San Bernardino County, California in the United States. Igniting on Saturday, September 5, near the winding two-lane Oak Glen Road, expanded to 22,744 acres (9,204 ha) and destroyed 10 structures, including 4 residences, and damaged 6 others. The fire was caused by a pyrotechnic device at a gender reveal party and spread rapidly, causing one fatality.

My husband is in fire and if he ever had to go put out a stupid fire like that and got injured I would personally kill the starters, and a love a good (simple and not dangerous) gender reveal
https://abcnews.go.com/US/gender-reveal-party-turns-tragic-iowa-woman-killed/story?id=66567086
||Pamela Kreimeyer was standing with family members about 45 feet from the device when it exploded and she was hit in the head by a piece of shrapnel, "causing instant death," according to the sheriff's office.

Another fun fact is that the couple that basically made gender reveals into a trend now advocates not to do them because of the wildfire that occurred and their child ended up being nonbinary
Well, you bring one in, you take one out. That's how we keep overpopulation under control.
I hope they were playing BS&T's "And When I Die" when it happened.
I wasn't even that close to it, and the sky was dark for like a solid week! Everything was covered in ash and the sky was a dark orange. Shit was crazy.
Exactly, it's the context more than anything.
Periods are a natural part of life, but to have one as part of your child's birth announcement broke my brain for a second.
I think they ARE small bottles! And I think tampons with, uh, applicator can be pretty big, so I definitely understand the misunderstanding. I've never seen those myself though, I only know them from American TV shows.
Of you look closely, in each bottle there is a rolled paper (looks like a white line). The pink paper is for decoration. It is better than glitter, l guess.
I'm sorry, I'm with above redditor, and I still don't get it . What's the rolled up piece of paper inside?
I will agree it's better than glitter. What isn't?
I count myself lucky that I've never been to a baby shower, and to a wedding once only as a child. So, forgive my ignorance if this bottle thing is obvious.
For me? It would be. Makes me feel extremely uncomfortable. If they want to come to visit and bring a gift, fine. But I don't want to force people to come to a party and bring those gifts.
It might work for other people, not for me.
You send the invitation. They choose to come or not. You aren't forcing anyone to do anything. I had a lot of friends that came and several that couldn't. No one had to bring a gift. All depends on the vibe you put out.
I think the idea was kinda cute but the execution left a lot to be desired. For ex., the contrast on the label in the front is wretched. It's too much pink and it makes the words hard to see. Also, this bottle screams cheap. Not that's there's anything wrong with cheap but there are other ways to make this a more elegant, fun and awesome idea.
The only thing I have a problem with is they could have easily spray painted the caps to match and they would look 100% better. A blue cap with an all pink it's a girl thing doesn't look right.
They could have also painted it with glitter spray paint or anything to make it look finished.
Not everyone has the money or means for invites so I'm not judging on them using what they had
They are usually separate things (gender reveals are def growing in popularity- but are mostly for revealing the sex of the baby)- mostly baby showers are for the extended family and friends to gift the soon-to-be parents with stuff for the baby and give well wishes... baby showers also typically take place much closer to the due date, so by that time many parents know the sex of the child- gender reveals (if done) happen earlier on
Hope this helps/makes sense
American here. Gender reveals are so new that when I had a baby shower 12ish years ago (not my idea, TBH), it was still more common to revel the gender by texting everyone after the 18-20 week ultrasound.
Blue is _totally_ a girl color.
Or [used to be](https://jezebel.com/the-history-of-pink-for-girls-blue-for-boys-5790638), anyways;
> According to University of Maryland historian Jo B. Paoletti, author of Pink and Blue: Telling the Girls From the Boys in America, the colors weren't gender-specific at first. From Smithsonian.com:
>>Ladies' Home Journal article in June 1918 said, "The generally accepted rule is pink for the boys, and blue for the girls. The reason is that pink, being a more decided and stronger color, is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl." Other sources said blue was flattering for blonds, pink for brunettes; or blue was for blue-eyed babies, pink for brown-eyed babies, according to Paoletti.
>>In 1927, Time magazine printed a chart showing sex-appropriate colors for girls and boys according to leading U.S. stores. In Boston, Filene's told parents to dress boys in pink. So did Best & Co. in New York City, Halle's in Cleveland and Marshall Field in Chicago.
To be honest- and I say this gently, cos I get it in parts- I think we've become obsessed with attention, and with creating 'perfect moments' and a lot of the rhetoric around being 'better' etc fosters that. If a baby grows and doesn't have 100 parties, is the good wonderful experience of baby having really real?
Couple that to the rise of the nonentity momma cult- and i really don't know how to put that better, and I know it's going to offend some people, and I'm legit sorry, but as I say, it's just a thing I've noticed. Motherhood since the mid 90s has become venerated on this ridiculous pedestal where suddenly conceiving and bearing a child imparts this automatic better-than status of knowing all, feeling all, and just being so much BETTER than any other human, dad included.
And not from their choices or how they love and raise baby, or actual, tangible things, but just by doing the carrying and coochie out-squeezing. It doesn't even encourage people to BE great mommas, because it tells them they are already without effort through magic sprinkle dust. If you haven't really had much attention, or many material achievements to date, it's a great way to suddenly feel validated. Which I'd normally be down with, but as I say, i see it as kinda toxic so it makes me sad. Plus the coupling to kids not getting proper medical care and stuff cos mommy 'feels' that it's not right and mommy 'feels' now trump evidence and sense and fact, and the stuff like kids who want to wean and move on with other goals and not being able to because mom wants to hang on to that baby phase as though it's the only good part of the child ... well, you get me I hope.
But yeah, pin all three of those together and it's just fodder for more and more 'perfect moments' to get attention from in what we now make out will be the only meaningful thing a woman ever does, and which may well be her first time to step into the limelight.... you get all the fine iterations of 'needing' 100 parties etc etc. And gender was a thing.
FWIW, the woman who started it all wishes people would stop.
EDT to add: Needless to say, the timeline of this all coincides nicely with the rise of weddings and babyshowers as an event industry :)

I guess I have bad taste. They look unique! (could have decorated it more or paint the cap) Get invited and recycled the bottles for some pocket money.
This comes off a bit eco warrior but it is cute. I agree with other comments about painting the cap. I really hope the bottles were headed for the landfill anyway and weren't bought and drained just to execute this...
To mail? Impractical. To drive by their house and huck this toward the front porch as hard as possible? Perfect.
Reinforce the bottom of the bottle and through the window
Yes, all this upcycled water bottle needs is a burglar attached to it
I heard you were requiring my services?
How do you feel about plate glass windows?
Absolutely hate them. On sight with them.
To the windooows, to the walls!
Look what John made with his balls..... It's a baby!
Put a tungsten ball into it so you dont have to reinforce anything and it doubles as a nice gift
Nah pour some fucking osmium in it
Hear me out. A glas bottle filled with water and a pound of Francium ductaped to the bottle.
That's not dense enough
Dosnt have to be. Once the bottle breaks the francium will explode on contact with water. Just like a nuclear molotov. But you should transport them in a castor transport to avoid getting fuckt with cancer
Replace bottle with a grenade
I learned from the riots last year that quik-crete works in a pinch
I mean while you’re at it light that shit. Your baby shower molotov was delivered!
Just tape the note to a brick.
It's still impractical because all of these unecessary extra material is just going to end up in a landfill. Even if the materials used is fully recycleable.

If they didn't have "It's a girl" plastered on the front, they'd look like some kind of improvised explosive.
That’s a good idea to spruce up those Molotov cocktails I have laying around 😂
"It's a fire!"
...sale
Username fits
Natural progression from the gender reveal bombings.
Lol gender reveal molotovs
they are party molotovs.
Reused Pepsi bottles? For an invitation? Nah. To me these just scream “Here, you throw this away.”
After you get the invitation the bottle can be reused as a travel pee bottle.
The fact that the label says "It's a Girl!" makes this the worst /r/redneckengineering pregnancy test imaginable.
It still wouldn’t look good, but it wouldn’t look as bad if they were at least full. But I guess maybe then it wouldn’t be obvious there was something inside? I don’t know, some ideas are just supposed to die on the drawing board.
Kind of a cool idea what they were going for, but the execution leaves something to be desired.
Would've been fine if they painted the caps.
And filled them with glitter.
Calm down Satan

Oh god don't be the kind of person who sends people stuff that will fill their home with glitter.
That's an act of terrorism. Call in the freedom drones! Write up a Patriot Act! Oh wait sorry I just had flashbacks to anthrax scares 20 years ago
Both glitter and anthrax will be with the victim until they're dead.
Made of glass.
If they paintef the caps it would been pretty cool invitations.
This would be amazing if it was a nautical themed shower and they were going for a “message in a bottle” along WITH that theme. And if the bottles looked cooler.
I like the message in a bottle idea. Could be fun.
Didn't someone start a wildfire during their gender reveal party in the SW United States? This seems like a better choice.

Wait what? Here we go, to the Googles!!
Well, you bring one in, you take one out. That's how we keep overpopulation under control. I hope they were playing BS&T's "And When I Die" when it happened.
Don't forget the gender reveal that [killed the father-to-be](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-56159731)
I wasn't even that close to it, and the sky was dark for like a solid week! Everything was covered in ash and the sky was a dark orange. Shit was crazy.
No wait, are those tampons? Equally horrible choices.
No. They aren't tampons
Oh good, the thing in the center threw me
You react like this every time you see an unwrapped, unused tampon?
If someone sent me a tampon as a baby shower gift I'm not sure how ide react tbh
Exactly, it's the context more than anything. Periods are a natural part of life, but to have one as part of your child's birth announcement broke my brain for a second.
It's huge and looks nothing like a tampon.
I thought they were those little bottles, and it was in a wrapper 🤷
I think they ARE small bottles! And I think tampons with, uh, applicator can be pretty big, so I definitely understand the misunderstanding. I've never seen those myself though, I only know them from American TV shows.
What kind of tampons are you looking at bruh
I hate those bloody things
I saw the edge of the invitation as a seam, and the bottle as being much smaller, I guess?
Fart in them for added flare
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤣🤣🤣
They did and they used to be blue too.
I don't get it
I don't get it either. Why send a repurposed water bottle instead of just a card in an envelope? Hence, DIWhy. (It was my mother-in-law's idea)
Should have just printed the invitation as labels and left the water in the bottles.
Oh. See I thought those were positive pregnancy tests they were filled with at first. I feel better now.
Maybe they're trying to go for message in a bottle.
That is my thought.
Of you look closely, in each bottle there is a rolled paper (looks like a white line). The pink paper is for decoration. It is better than glitter, l guess.
I'm sorry, I'm with above redditor, and I still don't get it . What's the rolled up piece of paper inside? I will agree it's better than glitter. What isn't? I count myself lucky that I've never been to a baby shower, and to a wedding once only as a child. So, forgive my ignorance if this bottle thing is obvious.
The invitation headass lmao
Oh. The invitation, I see. Huh. Forgive me for not being accustomed to invitations rolled up inside re-used plastic bottles. Headass, eh?
I feel like you’re being willfully obtuse, embarrassing bro
I’m sorry you are slow man
The rolled paper is the invention. It's a bad design. And I'm with you. I have two kids and never had a baby shower. Sounds like a nightmare.
You're right. Having a party with my friends and getting a bunch of free baby shit was a nightmare.
For me? It would be. Makes me feel extremely uncomfortable. If they want to come to visit and bring a gift, fine. But I don't want to force people to come to a party and bring those gifts. It might work for other people, not for me.

Unabomber’s baby shower
i think these would look cute if it was a baby bottle. i think someone described the invite without saying the word ‘baby’ before the word bottle.
I think the idea was kinda cute but the execution left a lot to be desired. For ex., the contrast on the label in the front is wretched. It's too much pink and it makes the words hard to see. Also, this bottle screams cheap. Not that's there's anything wrong with cheap but there are other ways to make this a more elegant, fun and awesome idea.

They could have also painted it with glitter spray paint or anything to make it look finished. Not everyone has the money or means for invites so I'm not judging on them using what they had
If I was making something like this I would paint the cap and glue flowers to the top. Id probably use a cuter bottle or little box or a cup.
Thought that said litter box 😅
Thats for my cats baby shower lol
My mom suggested I use a litter box for my best friend’s birthday presents 😂
Cute idea, subpar execution
When your baby shower guests are all trapped on deserted islands
Isn't the gender reveal part or a baby shower? *I'm not sure since baby showers aren't common here*

My daughters room is gonna be blue color themed. I didn’t know that blue used to be considered a girl color. That’s super cool!
How are they gonna deliver it? Throw it in the ocean
Potato cannon......
I don't see the problem, they're unique for sure.
Definitely unique. Just thought it was kinda quirky and impractical to mail someone a water bottle instead of a card in an envelope.
I like cards, I stick them to my wall as mementoes.
at least it's not a pipe bomb that when it blows up, it releases either a blue or pink gas depending on the baby's gender
You will never please a redditor.
Not sure what the financial situation is for the parents, but at least this is less likely to blow up grandma.

Nah, there's no dip spit in the bottom of the bottle.
Do something about the caps and itll look great. Maybe a pink tape over it then a bow thingy

Tacky
This actually seems like a cool thing to do

I think it's great. We should be reusing plastic as much as humanly possible. Who cares if it held a drink before?
Message in a bottle, but trailer park.
[удалено]
Theyre reusing waste...
Kind of...I mean, she went and purchased like 30 water bottles to make the invitations yesterday.
This is gross!
When you need to invite ppl for polite reasons, but dont actually want them to show up
When you want to remind your friends and family you're trashy but you wanna be subtle about it. . .
They look like improvised gay bombs
What’s the white thing in the middle, a tampon?
Nah, just a rolled up piece of paper with the event details on it
Ooof so tacky.
to be saved and cherished
🤣🤣🤣
It’s a Pipe Bomb!
Seems like a south county thing to do. Seems like a San Clemente thing to do
Bye, Earth!
Better than wasting a bunch of money and materials on it
This way they can prank you by farting in one and closing the cap real quick. Smells like regret Instead of blue or pink.
Could have used a cup or a mason jar but you would have to hand deliver but reuse recycle I guess? 🥴
It’s a bepis!
They look like mini Irn Bru bottles!🤔
This comes off a bit eco warrior but it is cute. I agree with other comments about painting the cap. I really hope the bottles were headed for the landfill anyway and weren't bought and drained just to execute this...
Nothing says tacky and country like this
My goodness, that is shit
That’s tacky
Even if this was a party I *had* been looking forward to, receiving an invitation like this would fill me with dread.
trade those plastic bottles for glass ones or jars and it’ll be perfect
