In July I co-hosted a baby shower in my home with two wonderful ladies. Our little ranch house is less than 1000 square feet, so with 20 guests, food, drinks, and gifts, it was cozy! We still had tons of fun and got to shower a great friend with lots of pink baby gifts.
For decorations, I made ruffled streamers in pink, white, and black, hung up a photo collage of the parents-to-be when they were wee little ones, and added bunting to the cake.
For the cake, I followed these Martha Stewart chocolate cupcake and cream cheese frosting recipes. All I have to say is... delicious! It wasn't that much more effort to make the cake from scratch and its 1000 times better than a box! I still need to work on my food coloring skills, though. I heard investing in gel coloring is worth it!
By the way, I apologize for the quality of the photos! Most were taken with my iPhone because halfway through the party I lost my camera... I went to the fun room to show a party guest my quilting projects. While we were in there, I set down my camera and forgot where I put it! You get me talking about quilting and I lose focus on all other things!
