Hosting a Little Peanut Baby Shower
January 27, 2017So you’re planning on hosting a little peanut baby shower. Congrats! We’ve gathered a few tips to make sure your event is a showstopper and not a circus. From color palettes to gift ideas, here’s everything you need to host the perfect shower!
1. Baby’s Gender Can Determine Color Palette
The first step to any good baby shower is figuring our if the mom-to-be knows her baby’s gender. Knowing if they will be a boy or girl can help get the party started in terms of color. Blues and pinks work perfectly with the grey on an elephant. Having colored coasters, frames, and candles can be great accents to the party. If the mom is waiting to see when the baby arrives, that’s perfect too! Grey can always be the star of the show with different color accents.
2. Bright Colors Can Be Your Friend
If your party already has blue and grey, or pink and grey, don’t be scared to add an extra bright color into the mix, like orange, to make your party shine even brighter! You want the colors to be as warm and bright as your guests!
3. Elephants Galore
Obviously, with a little peanut baby shower, the stars of the show are the little elephants. Make sure that they are all over your party! The best way to wow your guests with your parade of elephants is the food. An elephant cake can be the ultimate show stopper, but elephant shaped cookies as well as cupcakes with elephant shaped cake toppers will be perfect supporting characters. With all these elephants, it’ll be your own private circus.
4. Peanuts are a MUST
When thinking up snacks to go with your desserts, or looking for a great parting favor, peanuts are absolutely the way to go! They fit the theme, they’re super tasty, and who doesn’t love a fun play on words?
5. Give Appropriate Gifts
When it comes to gifts, what’s more fun than having a gift fit the shower theme? From plushes to pajamas to hooded towels, the mom-to-be will love anything that will make her little one feel extra special!
