High Five for Friday: My Sister's Baby Shower!



Happy Friday! I came home from our vacation in Florida and hurried to finish up last minute stuff for my sister's baby shower. I loved every minute of planning the shower and had that much more fun decorating! 

Here are a few highlights from our day (and night!) of decorating (more to come on the actual shower!):

1. I walked in to find my sister icing over 100 mini cupcakes in pink and blue frosting. She looked exhausted already and we still had so much to do! 



2. We began by decorating her mantle first. After finding various story book themed photos on Pinterest throughout the planning process, I knew we needed to incorporate this vision. The mantle came out incredibly cute!


3. Being that the shower was story book themed and guests were asked to bring a book, I envisioned a book station with book crates and stuffed animals. This table was one of my favorite "decorations" and it was completely filled with books by the end of the shower! SO fun!


4. One of the things that I was most excited about was hanging the "monthly onesies" along with favorite book covers on a clothesline. We hung three of these in Rosie's living room and dining room. It was a big hit and I was thrilled at how it came out! 


5. Another fun decoration was making the "Who's that Baby?" Hungry Caterpillar. We had anticipated to mimic the caterpillars large arch, but couldn't fit that on the given wall and we were worried about people seeing the photos. Here's our Hungry Caterpillar version:



This was a super Fun Friday! More baby shower posts to come!
