While I’d much rather host a Baby Shower for someone else, I was honored to have such an awesome shower thrown for me and Baby Sebastian a few weeks ago. My friends and family came together as a group effort to really give me a special day and now I want to share that with you! My best friend Marie really exercised her creative muscles for this one and impressed us all with a lot of the decorations and ideas. She did however let me do just a few things, and I’m grateful for that! {she knows how much I love this stuff}
The theme was Woodland – like his nursery. A little tip – by making the Baby Shower and Nursery the same theme you can end up using items from the nursery to decorate the shower and items from the shower to decorate the nursery! Its a win-win!
DIY Tissue Garland // Adorable Diaper Cake {made by Marie} // Little Cherry Pies
Mini Pumpkin Pies // Fox and Hedge Hog Sugar Cookies {handmade!! can you believe that??}
One of the things I have started incorporating recently is a decorative backdrop of some sort. Without the chair it makes a great place for guests to take pictures with the honoree and when its time to open presents you just place a chair in front of it! Makes for much cuter pictures! P.s. Check out those adorable hand painted onesies!
One thing I was allowed to do was make the game cards 🙂
My new favorite Baby Shower activity to have is this cute baby block making station. I love it so much that I’ll be writing a post about it soon! It adds such a fun, sentimental and useful touch to the shower.
Some guests making Baby Bash a block – see the girl on the way end? Thats Marie, the one that did all the cute decorations!
The food was delicious! All made by my Mother-In-Law, Shelly. Chicken Salad Sandwiches, Pasta Salad, Veggie Egg Rolls, Spinach Dip and see the cute Hedgehog Cheeseball?? He’s my favorite!
These girls did such an amazing job to make the shower such a success – from decorations to games and prizes and much more, I could never thank them enough! {left to right: Marie, Me, Chelsea and Amanda}
My mom – who will probably kill me for putting a picture of her on the internet for everyone to see – had this place picked out for my baby shower before I was even engaged!
My Mother-In-Law Shelly who always puts love into the food she makes for her family.
And of course my sweet husband who came at the end to greet all the guests and help load the car.
