Anticipating a new baby is a joyous occasion for celebration and a baby shower is the perfect venue for the Mom-to-be to bask in the limelight with all her friends. If you’re hosting a baby shower, you want to have everything perfect. There’s your guest list, invitations, table settings, food and your party decorations. Here are some ideas for creative baby shower decorations that make for a festive atmosphere everyone will enjoy, but go easy on your budget.
First, you need to decide on your color scheme and baby-related theme. You can use the traditional blue or pink color schemes. However, baby shower decoration basics, such as streamers, tablecloths and paper plates come in plenty of multi-pastel designs, from plaids to florals, if you’re not sure if that bundle of joy is a boy or girl.
If your guest of honor isn’t the pastel type, choose accordingly. Primary colors are another popular color scheme. Consider ethnic themes, such as Mexican, Hawaiian, Italian or traditional African patterns and colors for a trendy look. There’s no set rule on colors.
Make helium balloon bouquets to place strategically around the party area. Consider using large glass vases to contain the bouquets, with colored marbles to keep the balloons in place. This idea creates a welcoming, party atmosphere flanking your front door. As most baby showers are held in homes or apartments, the party area is small enough to decorate lavishly in short order.
Now that you’ve got the essential baby shower decorations in place, it’s time for the icing on the cake, the little extras that pack a big punch. A pinata makes a colorful, cute baby shower decoration that Mom can take home as a nursery decoration! Gift and decoration in one!
Decorate your buffet table with dried or silk flowers in small bud vases, tied with a satin ribbon. Maintain your general color scheme to enhance the overall effect of your baby shower decorations. Make one for each guest and send them home as party favors that serve as a nice memento.
Small, cute stuffed animals can be suspended from the ceiling with ribbons, or nestled within a balloon bouquet. Mom takes these home as well, a terrific start on a lovely nursery atmosphere.
Small framed pictures, of the Mother Goose or Winnie the Pooh styles, serve both as baby shower decorations and gifts for Mom.
The Mom-to-be may not be up to wrestling open a huge box containing a carriage. Give her a break and pull it out of the box before the party. Decorate with balloons and ribbons and put a few of those stuffed animals inside. This makes a terrific and highly appropriate baby shower decoration!
Using this strategy of decorating with gifts and favors makes your party festive and an easy cleanup! With music, games and food, you have a memorable party! -
