Baby Shower Themes

Ok so the cakes from this post made really hungry so I am going to move on to themes.

First up shared from kidspot.com.au.

Popular baby shower themes include:

  • Seasonal. If you’re having a Christmas or Easter baby, seasonal theming is a slam-dunk. Get out the holly and tinsel or chocolate eggs and fluffy chickens and you’re all set to go.
  • Hawaiian. (or French, Italian or Mexican…) Dressing your baby shower up to be something else – a luau, fiesta or rustic Italian feast – can be great fun and all decorating, food and invitation decisions are made for you!
  • Nursery. A baby shower almost begs for nursery-style theming. You can use pastel shades, baby blocks, ABCs and 123s along with a liberal dose of Winnie the Pooh, Miffy or whoever your own childhood favourite characters were.

To me these are all a given. Easter baby equals easter theme…easy right? What if you are looking for another way to splash up a baby shower without making it tacky or boring.

How about throwing a spa themed baby shower? I went to one where they had a beauty consultant come in and give everyone a facial and we got to soak our feet in rose petals. Great idea AND the hostess got to get free gifts for doing this. Kind of like a party plan baby shower with a beauty or spa theme.

Another option is making it a mums shower. Do things mum likes…if she likes movies, make the theme movies! if she likes hiking and outdoorsy things then make sure you incorporate that into her party.

If you had a fun/unique baby shower theme we’d love to hear it!
