Baby
Shower Centerpieces - Have Your Shower Stand Out by These Unusual
Table Decoration Ideas
By Qing Gu
What
is the big hit to any baby shower? The baby shower centerpieces
are no doubt-ably the best answers.
Traditional
baby shower centerpiece ideas often revolve around floral arrangements
with a few balloons, though the modern era welcomes inventive
styles for just about everything.
Floral
baby shower centerpieces surrounded with candles are perfect
gifts for new baby girls or baby boys. Make sure to use flowers
that are in season for greater freshness and use baby bottles
as vases for fresh flowers.
You
can purchase items needed to make centerpieces from party supply
stores, craft stores, Dollar Stores, Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Shopko
and Target. Online baby shower stores will carry table centerpieces
of a much wider variety than the local merchants. Remember
to stick your centerpiece to the theme and color scheme.
Look
for something unusual? If you are baking a baby shower cake
as the centerpiece, have guests arrive early to help the cake
decoration - you want to make a surprise for the new mom right?
Nothing can be more appealing to have
a fabulous diaper cake. It’s a three-for-one baby shower
gift (a centerpiece, a baby gift basket and its baby items
can be used for your shower
games).
A gift basket can be a nice centerpiece too! It's lined with
a receiving blanket and filled with all kinds of baby items.
To make your gift basket centerpieces more appealing, add a soft
toy with helium balloons attached to the blanket handles, and
wrapped in cellophane with a pretty bow.
Putting some glass pebbles in the bottom of a clear glass bowl
and two-thirds fill the bowl with water. Floating frogs, rubber
ducks, or any plastic cartoon toys. The coolest idea is to have
a family frogs or ducks, and add a few drops of blue food coloring
to the water to make it like a pond.
For an Asian theme shower party, you can purchase Japanese lanterns
at party supplies or craft stores. Use one lantern as the base
of each arrangement and surround it with bamboo pots or votive
candles. And have a traditional Japanese table setting to complement
your baby shower centerpiece.
Most of baby shower hostesses make their own centerpieces as
they love such a creative activity as well as it shows their
love and support to the mom-to-be.
If none of the baby shower centerpieces above knock your socks
off...close you eyes. What do you see? A giant Rubber Duck, a
green plant topped with a stuffed Pooh, or any stand alone items
related to your theme?
Just unleash your creativity and open your mind to new and memorable
ideas for unique baby shower centerpieces. Some of the most elegant,
unusual and unforgettable decorative touches can exist even within
a strict budget.
Whatever you do, photograph your masterpiece before your guest
of honor takes it home!
