Welcome to the World Baby Shower

July 13, 2012

This Welcome to the World Baby Shower really was a sunshine event to remember. And it was packed with a lot of DIY projects that I hope inspire you for your next party.

Patterned papers by Tonality Designs for Placemats and Vase Wraps!

Sticking to our signature look of creating 6 coordinating graphic patterns, our table scape took advantage of the different designs. We used the pattern papers as vase wraps and placemats.

Welcome to the World Little One Sign - Tonality Designs

We created a hanging sun with the words “Welcome to the World Little One.”

Toppers aren’t only for desserts. Think about embelishing your flower arrangements too!

DIY Sun Centerpieces — Tonality Designs

Maybe my favorite DIY project, we created custom 3-D Sun Centerpieces.

DIY Sun Centerpieces
Materials
• 2″ styrofoam ball
• Yellow paint
• 12″ stick
• White construction paper
• Planted Pot (or other item like a vase of flowers to put final product in)

Instructions
Paint the styrofoam ball yellow. Cut out two cloud shaps from the white construction paper. Next, cut slits into the ball where the clouds can stick in. Place ball on the 12″ stick and then place in a pot (here we used wheatgrass but you could do a pot of flowers).
As a final touch, we also added custom paper ribbons that said “Baby Girl, You are the Sunshine of My Life.” This added our touch of pink we wanted.

Round Pennant Banner available from Tonality Designs

Custom rounded pennant banners and streamers acted as a perfect backdrop to our table.

Alternative uses for cupcake toppers — Tonality Designs

Remember, toppers don’t have to be only for cupcakes. We used them on our sandwiches and also as napkin rings.

Baby Shower Game — Motherly Advice — Tonality Designs

Instead of a guest book, we asked guests to write on a card their “Motherly Advise” for our new mom.

DIY Circle Photo Prop — Tonality Designs

Another fun DIY project! We created a fun “sun” frame for photo ops with our Mom-to-Be.

DIY Circle Photo Prop
We found a large styrofoam frame that we simple wrapped with strips of yellow fabric. Easy to do for any party!

Okay, really fun to look at these photos again. Such a fun party.

Hoco look number 2 was pretty in pink! Though she wore a blue dress 😉 

I was surprised that Trader Joe’s had Star of David blooms. I’m pretty sure I was the only one who bought them amongst the chaos of all the people buying flowers that morning. The crowd also overlooked the garden roses and, frankly, that is crazy to me. They are so beautiful and really elevate any bouquet. I highly recommend you look for them next time you buy flowers.

Post any questions in the comments and I’ll try to answer as best I can.

I had the pleasure of creating two Homecoming bouquets this weekend. Here’s the first, with matching boutonnière. 

She sent a picture of a dark burgundy dress and said I could do anything I wanted. I thought all red flowers might read as too red, so I added a light purplish-pink garden rose. I really loved this combination, it felt sophisticated but also super fun. All I kept thinking was, I hope she likes it. And luckily she loved it! And the gold bow even matched her shoes 😉

Flowers were from @traderjoes #traderjoesflowers

Happy Friday! I thought I’d welcome August with some new flowers.

This time of year, I love the look of sunflowers mixed with pink and purple dahlias, so I set out to recreate that same feeling using faux and dried flowers. The key wasn’t finding the exact blooms, but rather choosing realistic stems in similar colors that captured the same vibe.

I’m loving how it turned out. And as a bonus, these flowers show no signs of wilting in this summer heat. 😉
