Deep in planning mode and having fun…
I’ve been completely swamped with a full workload this week and last (my sincere apologies for being a tad MIA — bear with me!), but in between it all, I’ve been preparing to host a baby shower for my sister-in-law next weekend. I thought I’d share my board for the party planning, clearly taking inspiration from their gray/white/orange nursery scheme.
Tissue paper poufs: Shop Sweet Lulu
Fish onesie cupcake toppers: Amy Dot Designs (Etsy)
Gray/white striped cupcake wrappers: Olivia’s Paper Shoppe (Etsy)
Gray polka dot cocktail napkins: Target
Invitation: me
Gray/white striped straws: Cupcake Social (Etsy)
Mini fish sugar cookies (party favor)
We’ll definitely need simple arrangements of orange mums, as well as grapefruit mimosas, and recently discovered Earl Grey and Salted Caramel macarons from a local bakery. Yum.
I’m getting pumped! Ok, ok, that’s enough fun…back to work.
***UPDATE! Check out the photos from this event here.***
So sorry I won’t be there! I left a gift for them at your parent’s house, so hopefully they have received that. I know it will be so much fun! Give them hugs for me! And please send me some pictures. I love what you have posted already – beautiful!
