There are a couple things we've traditionally done in our family. My father's family is from Campobasso, near Naples. 1. If you know the gender of the baby, or the middle name they plan to use, a name bracelet, or anything of a Patron saint is cherished.
Religious gifts for protection, etc are important (Most have very strong Catholic beliefs). 2. Make an umbrella. The umbrella is decorated by close female friends &/or family and held over the soon to be mom as she opens her gifts...showers of bblessin..
see examples on pinterest etc. Weve decorated with small baby items and hung $ billsfrom the spokes 😀.
