Are You Having A Rough Time Decorating For A Baby Shower Party? It Can Be Tough Locating Good Festive Decorations
My sister and I designed a baby shower for 1 of our nieces. We decided to have it in the fellowship part of the neighborhood church because of the fact that it was a large guest list. We had the baby shower on a Saturday afternoon. We didn't want to get too elaborate with the baby shower decorations due to the fact that we needed to have the complete area cleaned out immediately after the party. We did want to have just a few decorations for baby shower to give the room a celebratory feel. There is a bassinet that is passed to every new mother for the baby to sleep in for the first 4 to 6 weeks. This cradle was my mother's. We decided that we would use the bassinet as the heart of our baby shower party decorations.
The fellowship area has large round tables that seat ten people. We moved one table off by itself to be the gift table. We covered this table with a soft pink table cloth; our niece has found out she is having a girl. We set the cradle in the center of the table. We made the decision to use our presents for the baby shower decorations. I had obtained a pink and white infant blanket, which we hung over the side of the bassinet. We pinned several rattles and other baby toys to the blanket with diaper pins. We then showed the little ensembles that my sister had bought. We finished the baby shower decorations for the gift table by placing a large stuffed bear into the bassinet. It's so much fun to decorating for a baby shower!
For the food service table we had an array of fresh flowers from the community florist. She used soft pink carnations, baby's breathe and daisies for the display. We determined that no other baby shower party decorations needed to be placed on this table. We did have pink napkins that we put on this table, together with a cake that was decorated with a stork holding a little doll in a pink frosting blanket.
We had also ordered a corsage for our niece and one for every of the new grandmas to be. We felt that the room looked very good and we would not have to spend a whole lot of time cleaning up baby shower party decorations because of the fact that they would all be sent home as gifts to our niece.
We had a great turn out for the baby shower party. My niece got several very nice gifts. She was glad that we had the shower in a space that was not cramped. As she progresses with the pregnancy she is feeling more claustrophobic. Within 30 moments after the baby shower was over the fellowship section was cleaned and we were on our way home.
