Unique Ideas for Baby Shower Centerpieces
While planning a baby shower should be lots of fun, it can be time consuming and difficult as well. For many of us party planners, the hardest part of pulling off a successful baby shower is finding the perfect centerpiece for the gift table. It is important to have a centerpiece that truly captures the spirit of the occasion, and one that is pleasing to both the invited guests and the guest of honor.
There are of course as many ideas for baby shower centerpieces as there are planners of baby showers, but these are some of my all time favorites:
The Bassinet Fill a bassinet, or a baby carrier, with all those little things new parents always need. These necessities include things like wash cloths, baby wipes, baby oil and of course lots of diapers.
The Wreath of Diapers Speaking of diapers, one of the most unique and memorable baby shower centerpiece is the diaper wreath. Make a wreath completely out of diapers, in a variety of sizes, and add some rattles, toys and other baby items to complete the look.
The Baby Tub The baby tub is similar to the bassinet idea, but it uses a baby tub in place of the bassinet or baby carrier. Fill the baby tub with rubber duckies, baby wash, baby oil, wash cloths, shampoo, conditioner and other essentials.
The Money Tree If theres one thing every new parent needs, its money. Why not create a money tree to get the new baby off to a flying start? The money tree can be further decorated with baby toys, rattles and other fun items.
The Rocking Horse Every child loves a rocking horse, and decorating an appropriately sized rocking horse with fun baby items can provide the perfect centerpiece for a baby shower with a cowboy or western theme.
