Kaysi submitted these lovely pictures from a recent baby shower that she put together for her friend Kellee. The theme was “How Tweet It Is”, and it featured lots of birdie elements throughout. Kaysi created the invitations, roseballs, centerpieces, and favor boxes. The dessert table and other details were done by FABU Weddings. The macaroons, cake and birdie sugar cookies were made by Dippedee Bakery.   

Thanks Kaysi for some great inspiration!

Jackie from Jackie Fo, helped to create this lovely Pearl themed baby shower for a friend. They chose the theme because the mom to be had nicknamed her baby Pearl. {As I always say, make the theme personal, and it will definitely be a success.}  The shower was planned on a tight budget, but Jackie and her friends did a great job! Strings of pearls were used to decorate the mantle, to tie the cellophane bags for the cookie party favours, in the flower arrangements…everywhere. Jackie even made the banner to resemble pearls, and I love the little activity where guests were required to give the mom to be their ‘Pearls of Wisdom’. The Pearl Theme was really carried throughout the party. A fab example of how you can put together a  great party, full of lovely details, even when you’re on a budget. Thanks for sharing Jackie!    

Natasha from The Flair Factor threw a Sugar and Spice and All Things Nice baby shower for her friends, who were having a baby girl. She went with the colurs pink and green, and had a picnic style baby shower. I love the way she decorated the pink and green grapefruit soda bottles, with ribbons and personalized bottle caps. I also love the sugar rimmed glasses, and straws with mini pacifiers.

The dessert table was laid out with sugar and spice, and all things nice, under a pink canopy. A sign invited guests to ‘grab a bag, don’t think twice, fill it up with all things nice. Thanks for sharing Natasha.

I’ve been meaning to post pictures of this pretty baby shower that Jessica from Party Box design sent me, and I finally got a chance today! Jessica put together this darling baby shower for a friend, using the colours from the baby’s room. She chose the My Little Cupcake theme because in her words “I thought she’s baking a little cupcake in her belly”. There were lots of sweet details, and pretty centerpieces made by Jessica herself. I love that she sent guests home with their own DIY little cupcake kits: Mason jars filled with cake mix, shredded coconut, and chocolate chip morsels, with cute little tags with baking instructions on the back. Cute, cute cute!

If you love pink and brown, you’ll love this ultra girly baby shower by Clau of Eye Candy Events. It oozes girly sweetness, and serves up some delighful bakerella inspired treats…from the famous marshmallow pops, to the DIY cookie jar favours.

That dessert table is just so adorable! 

I love the idea of using Marshmallows as toppings for the cupcakes, and these cookie favour jars are such a sweet idea!

Here’s a little of what Clau had to say about this event:

“I decided to make a baby shower for a very good friend who is expecting her 1^st baby.  It´s a girl so I decided to go with a color palette of white, soft pink and brown.  I thought it was a chic and cute combination.  I decided to bake some chocolate cupcakes and decorate them with Philadelphia frosting in pink and a small white marshmallow as the topping. Then I made some marshmallow pops.  I decide to make them look like mini cupcakes so I choose white medium size marshmallows covered with chocolate and put a small White Candy Mint as topper.  As favors, I did use an idea I found on the Bakerella blog, which is the ingredients of a recipe to make cookies in a decorated jar with the instructions to bake them. My friends were fascinated with the idea and with all the party decorations like the banner and the cupcake toppers, which I also made it myself.”

I spotted this turtle baby shower over at Half Baked. This is a great baby shower theme for a boy, with a cute & refreshing blue-green colour combination. Carrie Sellman of Half Baked, made the gorgeous cake. Sundried tomato, goat’s cheese & cucumber chive sandwiches were cut into little turtles using a turtle shaped cookie cutter. There were turtle shaped chocolates & a baby clothes line featuring a turtle vest /onesie. The favours were turtle shaped cookies decorated with green & blue icing wrapped in cellophane & tied with blue ribbons. A refreshing spa-like iced cucumber water was served, & lime sherbet punch. Game cards were made from coordinating scrapbook paper. Striped pencils were topped with polka dot turtles made of felt and pop sickle sticks & the adorable turtle invitation was from Inviting Smiles.

This gorgeous ‘B’ inspired party was styled by Lollipop Events & Designs, & featured on Hostess Blog. Oozing with style & creativity, I’m sure you’ll find lots of ideas & inspiration to incorporate into your own baby shower.

Here are the details as told by the girls from Lollipop Events.  

“Baby is for Baby Shower …and Baby Boy Baron. We took the Birds & the Bees to a whole other level with this retro inspired baby shower featuring a warm yellow, white and grey color pallette. We started off by finding adorable yellow and grey floral patterned fabric on Etsy and designed custom linens trimmed with bright yellow burlap.

We also created placemats by simply cutting out circles of the burlap for a super easy DIY! The table was set underneath a series of frames we had built then covered with a white cotton for a delicate shade.

For the floral chandeliers, we started with two sizes of embroidery loops and attached tons of various shades of yellow and white ribbons and yarn through each of them. Then we covered the smaller loop with a thick ribbon to give it some form and hand sewed white carnations around the large top loop. White yarn and wire was used to attach the chandelier to a smaller top circular frame and then to the roof of the frame itself. The more the wind blew and the yarn unraveled at its ends the more charming it became!

To make each place setting special we baked 40 individual coconut cakes topped with mini-handmade marzipan bees set on vintage doilies! We found the DIY for the marzipan bees over at MarthaStewart.com.

Baby bottles served as the glasses for the Baby Bottle Bellinis (triple B word!) and proudly wore ‘B’ flags of their own.

Vintage vases and vessels were filled with bright, energetic mums, daisies and exotic sunflowers accented with craspedia balls. We actually found a lot of the retro vases at our local thrift stores for eco-chic entertaining!

The candy buffet was nestled under a four-poster cabana we also had made for this event and was covered with cotton fabric and had its own gorgeous ribbon chandelier swaying from it. Strands of butterflies were draped around the posts for the fanciful effect sure to lure.

Tons of various height apothecary jars were filled with sugarlicious yellow candies and had custom tags draped with yellow ribbons calling out what their delicious bellies held.

We also made goody bags and asked to take home as many delectable goodies as they could hold.

We played Badmitton, Bocce Ball, had accents of Birds, Bees, Butterflies, Balloons and even served up a cute bowl of bright yellow Bananas! Each guest took home a Bag of candy… The ‘B’s were never ending and would also work fabulously for a ‘B’ridal Shower!”

Friends Mandy, Jackie & Trish came up with this great baby shower idea, and hardly spent much to put it all together. They used up left over candy from a previous party, and added some very creative touches to create a fabulous candy themed baby shower.

Of course all the yummy sweets and treats were laid out in a lovely, colourful candy buffet. Elegant bubble chandeliers bought on clearance from IKEA hung from the ceiling. The cylindrical vase ceterpieces, filled with bubblegum & lollipops, re-labeled with a “Sweetest Thing Candy Shoppe” logo, were budget friendly & easy to make.

The Candy Table centerpiece was a stunning nappy cake decorated with pink lollipops, bubble gum & lots of lovely ribbon.  Have a look How to make modern nappy cakes, for ideas on how to make your own.   

At the end of the party, guests filled up take away bags with their choice of candy from the lovely buffet.

And the adorable owl cellophane bags filled with pink cotton candy were the perfect party favours for this sweet baby shower.
