She's About to POP

Theme: She’s about to pop! When I set out to throw a baby shower for my BFF and her sweet new baby boy, I really wanted to do something bright and fun, that still had a little boy feel. Since we were going to have quite a few little kids in attendance, I decided to go with balloons. I mean, what little guy doesn’t like balloons? With bright lime, red, blue, orange and yellow balloons and white puffy clouds and a light blue polka dot sky, the shower had a fun springy feel and was a great way to celebrate baby Ethan!

Decorations: For the Table, I made white puffy clouds out of fleece and hung them over the table to give the sky a little wavy 3-D feel. The clouds were super easy to make and I have a white cloud tutorial on my blog. I loved the contrast between the light blue dots and the bright stripes, so I used striped ribbon, straws and wrapping paper to make the colors pop. This worked out perfectly with the colors and patterns in the printables.

Food: We had a super yummy dessert table. For the treats, there was snickerdoodles with adorable fondant balloons from Edible Designs by Letty, Yummy chocolate and vanilla cupcakes, chocolate cake and amazingly yummy balloon shaped cakepops from Nikki’s Cakepops. We also had coffee, lemonade, and a bunch of healthy treats and dips.
