Shake, Rattle & Roll Baby Shower

one of the things i love SOOO much is hosting, being a hostess- throwing parties and celebrating the big (and little) moments with friends and family. I love all the details and of course planning, crafting and eating too... 
one of my most favourite celebrations was for my dear friend and her expectant bundle of joy! 
Baby showers are so much fun- the air is filled with hope and anticipation and the community of women is there to support offering love and advice (which momma will soon learn to dismiss 70% of) its a right of passage and a great way to score favourite items and practical necessities. 

heres a peek into my 'SHAKE, RATTLE & ROLL' baby shower details 


I created this fun wreath from crafting supplies, the roses on the bottom are baby socks! 
Mommy-to-be is a graphic designer so she created the 'Shake, Rattle & Roll' graphic framed prints above the mantle 
Teal, light yellow & white were the colors so i used these fun vintage mason jars in just the right hue to accent the flowers. 

Whats a party without a little bubbly! so i added some fresh fruit puree's to the champagne bar for a twist. 
mommy wanted some wishes for baby, so we had a small station where attendees filled out wishes on tags and self addressed envelopes for thank you cards! (time saver!!!)
homemade heart and raindrop garland was hung above my eating bar for some height, i always feel it adds a nice touch to have decor somewhere unexpected
A little outside table was decorated in the colours with the month 11, when baby was to be expected! 

This baby shower cake was amazeballs! its from 
The cake pops were similar in an accent design and are as delicious as they are beautiful. 
The food was a wonderful array of finger foods and i created a cute baby carriage fruit basket (without melon-request from mommy to be) out of a hollowed watermelon and decorated with oh-so-cute dingle-ball trim 
Basil Lemonade was a nice refreshment for preggos & kids! served with paper straws and accent colour flags. 

It all came together so well for a really fun day and wonderful memories were made!
