Baby Shower Decor by Charmaine L. Smoot
Want a surefire way to make your baby shower memorable? Set the mood from the moment guests arrive with your decorations. Attractive and fun decor add to the excitement and tone of the shower, and the secret to success with decorations is simple: choose a theme. Once you have a theme, the rest of the baby shower elements fall into place: color, general decor, wall decor, table decor, and food.
Baby Shower Theme
There are endless theme possibilities. Let your imagination and circumstances guide you. Here are a few ideas to get the creative juices flowing:
– Nursery Rhymes – A classic theme everyone can relate to.
– Tea Party – Perfect for those expecting a baby girl.
– Disney Characters – We all have fond memories of our Disney pals!
– Diaper Party – Use diaper-shaped invites, decor, and gifts of diaper packets!
– Stuffed Animals – Which one’s your favorite?
– Barefoot and Pregnant – Is the expectant mother the first one in her group to have a child? Let her know everyone’s behind her by asking guests to come to a “Barefoot and Pregnant Party” dressed in stuffed shirts to signify their “pregnancy” (yes, even the male guests!).
Baby Shower Food
Let your chosen theme help you select the color for the shower. What if your theme is color-independent? Then you can always fall back on the old stand-by of allowing blue to signify an expected boy, pink for a girl, or either yellow or green when the baby’s sex isn’t known. White has also emerged as a popular baby shower color to symbolize innocence and purity. Whatever color or colors you decide on, let them help to unify the other elements of your shower.
General Decor
Whatever theme you choose, there are items almost every baby shower should have. Balloons, streamers, and banners set a festive tone, and displaying balloons in front of the house will also help guests identify the location of the baby shower.
There’s no better way to remind all the guests of the real reason for the get-together than by having a completely “done” baby crib near the entrance to the party. Then, not only is the tone for the event set perfectly, but the baby crib can also be used as a stunning gift table.
Table Decor
A baby-themed tablecloth with matching disposable tableware, baby cloth diapers as placemats, and themed centerpieces are popular baby shower decorations. For unique centerpieces, use stuffed animals holding small baskets filled with baby shower favors.
To further add to the shower’s light-hearted fun, have diapers decorated and hung with clothespins on clothes line. Put a stork outside the host’s home to greet guests. Have napkin holders made from baby bracelets. Or how about cookies in baby or animal shapes? A favorite is to have a diaper cake… no, not a baked cake in the shape of square diapers, but a tower of diapers assembled in the shape of a traditional cake! And of course, fresh-cut flowers in the color of the theme are always a welcome addition to the party.
Matching tableware such as plates, cups, spoons, forks, and napkins in the same color are simple and effective ways to round out the theme. Many party supply stores carry a wide variety of these items for the shower. White tablecloths sprinkled with animal-shaped confetti completes the table.
Food
Home-made or store-bought, either way, plenty of food is key to a successful baby shower. Here are some ideas that have worked out well in parties that I’ve hosted or been to. A macaroons, chocolate candies, a layer cake, marshmallows, chocolate- or yogurt-covered raisins and nuts. All these items are available at your local grocers, I’m sure. Here’s a favorite of mine: serving milk or vanilla ice cream in clear, plastic baby bottles! And to help keep guests’ stomachs from grumbling during the gift opening, supply them with edible party favors: chocolate-covered almonds served in baby booties and tied together with a white ribbon.
There are many fun-filled and creative ways to decorate a baby shower. An imaginative host will enjoy this occasion to honor the expectant mother and to hone her creative skills. Have fun!
Can’t think of what to bring to the baby shower? Take a peek at all the fabulous baby gifts and unique, personalized baby gifts hand-selected by Charmaine L. Smoot! They’re sure to be crowd-pleasers… while staying in your budget!
