I just wanted to share a great baby shower experience with everyone!
I was invited to a baby shower for Sarah, a friend of mine who is having twins. The hostess, who is also a dear friend of mine, was so creative with the invitations! She bought some onesies from a baby clothing company: www.kidsblanks.com The invitation information was printed on the onesies! What a cute and creative way to invite people to a baby shower!
This baby shower was so well thought out and planned. It was one of the best baby showers that I have ever been to! I just have to share these ideas with you!
Sarah is having twins (1 boy and 1 girl). The hostess put out 2 receiving blankets (they were trimmed in Pink and Blue) by the entrance. She had a little basket of fabric markers for everyone to leave a personal message on each blanket as they arrived. I thought this was such a thoughtful and great gift to the family.
Next, the decorations: there were small Diaper Cakes everywhere that were made out of onesies, tees and little hats. There was a mix of the traditional baby colors all over the place.
Each table though, had its own color theme, aside from the normal baby colors. One table had a Fuchsia theme, another one had an animal print theme and so on... On each table, there was a mix of styles and sizes that all of the guests could decorate and customize. Heaven only knows how helpful it will be for Sarah and Mitch to have such an abundance of clothes as the twins grow. We all know how fast and expensive it is.
If I ever plan a baby shower, I definitely plan to use www.baby-blanks.com and do something similar to what my friend did with this shower. It was seriously one of the best showers ever! And to top it all off, the parents-to-be have a huge variety of great blank and customized baby clothes for their twins now!
