Baby Shower Decorations

Ideas For Your Baby Shower Decoration -

Baby Bathtub - Instead of a punch bowl, try serving punch in a new clean baby bath tub. Float rubber duckiest in the punch for extra "awe".

Diaper Cakes - a great centerpiece, as well as a practical gift for mom. (See Baby Shower Crafts section!)

Diaper Wreath - An adorable and simple to make wreath to hang on the door at your shower, and a great gift for mom. Look for instructions in the Baby Shower Crafts Section!

Baby Sock Roses - use these to decorate diaper cakes, make a corsage, or fill flower vases with them to serve as a centerpiece. Easy to make and so cute! Look for instructions in the Baby Shower Crafts Section!

Balloons - Balloons can be used in many ways to decorate for your baby shower. Tie helium filled balloons to chairs, staircases, yard signs or use baby items/toys as anchors to tie them down. Hang a decorated umbrella upside down from the ceiling and fill with non- helium balloons. Hang them on walls and doors, or even use them in your games.

Streamers - Hang on walls, cascading from the ceiling, around staircases, and from doorways. Twist two or more colors together to match the rest of your decorations.

Twinkle lights - Plain white Christmas-type twinkle lights can add an elegant feel to evening baby showers. Used in the same manner as streamers. Wrap in tulle for beautiful effect (be wary of fire hazards)

Umbrella - Plain colored or white umbrellas usually work best. Hang upside down from the ceiling, and fill with balloons and/or baby items. Decorating the outside of the umbrella with puff paints, markers or streamers adds a nice touch.

Bows - Large bows can be used to decorate the backs of chairs and doors.

Baby bottles - Use these to serve drinks to your guests (made the opening wider and insert a straw to drink from), as balloon weights, or to hold candy/nuts for your guests.

Cloth diapers - Use them as placemats, or as doilies for your furniture.

Burp cloths - make great napkins!

T-shirts - Decorate adult or baby sized plain white t-shirts with either baby themed pictures, or use several shirts together to spell words like baby's name or "Baby Shower".
