For my younger sister’s baby shower I did some DIY projects that came out super cute.
First I made a really simple diaper cake. This was my first one and I used the role and tie with string method. I decorated it simple with pink ribbons and a cute bear on top.
Next, I made baby jane shoes from printed on patterned card stock paper. I glued a button on each shoe too. This was a bit time consuming, but they came out so cute I didn’t care. We put mints in them. When the baby shower was over I I gave them to my younger cousins who wanted them to take home for their dolls!
Here’s the template I used.
I also made candy wrappers by designing a label on Avery mailing labels. They fit perfect around Hershey nuggets candy.
Here’s the cake we had made by my sister’s friend who makes cakes for a living. The cake came out beautiful and tasted great too!
We put the cupcakes on my cupcake stand. I use this stand at every party. Love it!
I don’t know how your family throws baby showers, but mine always provides lots of food and a nice spread! We went all out for my sister. We had nachos, sausage balls, 3 kinds of sandwiches, veggie and fruit trays!
I love decorating for baby showers! Can’t wait to decorate my other younger sister’s party in July, and then my sister in-law’s later this year! Lucky Me!
