If you are throwing a baby shower for a new baby boy and want to keep it in traditional blue, take a look at these blue baby shower ideas we put together!

How wonderful are these "Away we Go" transportation party printables designed by Chieu Anh Urban, based on her baby-preschool book, Away We Go! A Shape and Seek Book. These printables would be perfect at styling your boy 1st birthday or boy baby shower.

The collection includes: cupcake flags, banner (with pennants for birthday or baby shower), thank you cards, tented display cards, welcome signs, shape signs, and 17 coloring pages (to keep your little guests busy)!

One of my favorite themes for boy 1st birthdays and baby showers is Sock Monkey parties. They have a built in retro feel and you can decorate them so easily with sock monkey toys (and other vintage toys), sock monkey cake pops, cookies, and printables!

If you're looking for a cute 1st birthday theme or baby shower theme, how about bumble bees? And now that we're giving away this set of adorable free "Little Honey" bumble bee printables, you'll have everything you'll need to make your party sparkle (or at least buzz). :)

The collection includes: invitations, cupcake toppers, gift tags, large party tags, "Little Honey" banner (large and small), mini candy bar wrappers, welcome sign, treat toppers, thank you and menu/place cards and water bottle labels.

Alison from Sparking Events created these adorable diaper babies for the latest shower she threw, then she kindly put together this tutorial to show us how she made them.

According to Alison they were super easy to make and such a hit! If you are looking for something a little different than a diaper cake, give these a try!

We've been seeing an explosion of bumble bee baby showers on our site! There's something so sweet  and cute about bumble bee parties, and I love all the plays on the word "bee"!

Take a look at these beautiful parties:

How adorable is this collection of FREE ladybug party printables we're giving away!

Ladybug parties are some of our most popular, I think because they're so darn cute! This set could work for a 1st birthday or baby shower.

I'm so excited to be giving away this exclusive girl baby shower printables collection designed by Katie from Green Apple Paperie. How cute are these little onesies!!!

The collection includes: invitations, thank you cards, party circles, cupcake wrappers, Hershey's Kiss labels, wish tree cards, advice for mom cards, water bottle labels, tented cards, straw flags, and an "It's a Girl" banner.

Tali from A Party Studio designed these sweet baby shower wishing tree cards and was kind enough to offer them to our readers. Thank you, Tali!

I love the whole idea of wishing trees because they let your guests write special messages to the mommy-to-be and baby that can be displayed during the shower on a branch, small tree, or even curly willow from the craft store, then saved forever.
