Why a lyric canvas is the shower MVP
At a typical bridal shower the registry is full of kitchen and bath items. Guests start to blur together. A personalized lyric canvas stands out because (a) it's emotional, (b) it's display-ready, (c) it doesn't compete with the registry. Bride pulls it out, reads the lyrics, cries. That gift wins the shower.
