Bow Tie Baby Shower

Last weekend we had a shower for my sister in law Megan.  If you’re a regular around here you’ll know that Reece made his arrival early.  I told Meg that we should stuff a pillow under her dress for the shower.  {For those of you who have asked, he is now 3 weeks & he is doing GREAT!  All of his tubes are gone, he’s eating well.  We’re keeping fingers crossed that he gets to come home this week.}

Her sister in law Heather and I co-hosted the shower.  Heather was so much fun to work with, we were totally on the same wavelength, great food, no games, relaxed atmosphere.  The melon baby + cute diaper cake below was all her and her husband Andy is a chef, so he took care of the menu.

  

 

Sources:

• Invitations were designed by Lisa at Ellieoh.  She was fast, attentive, and so patient with changes that I wanted to make.  I found her while perusing Etsy and I’m so glad I did.  I would highly recommend her.  Bright green envelopes from Hobby Lobby.
• Awesome {free!} Paper Bow Tutorial + Pattern from Ellinee.  {I used the pattern for this and my own paper choices.}  We used black pillow boxes from Michaels, filled with a sea salt chocolate covered oreo and topped with the paper bow for favors.
• Idea for the melon baby carriage came from Pinterest.  If anyone has the original source of this I will be happy to link, I’ve spent close to an hour and I’m still not sure where it came from.
• Lime green plates + turquoise napkins, Reece banner, and “new mom” sash from Party City.
