Tulle Table Skirt

A tulle table skirt is a simple way to add elegance to your baby shower. Attach layers of tulle around the edge of the dessert or gift table, fluffing it out for volume. Choose tulle in soft pastels or colors that match your theme.

DIY Hot Air Balloons

Make whimsical hot air balloon decorations using balloons/paper lanterns, sticks, boxes, and strings. Start by inflating a large balloon, which will serve as the “balloon” part of your hot air balloon. Attach four sticks to the corners of a small box, securing them vertically so they extend upwards. Next, tie strings from the top of each stick to the knot of the balloon, ensuring the strings are evenly spaced and the balloon sits directly above the box. The box acts as the “basket,” and you can fill it with small flowers, candies, or a cute stuffed animal.

Tissue Paper Pom-Poms

Paper Butterfly Wall Decor

Create a wall of paper butterflies by cutting out butterfly shapes from colorful paper. Use Scotch Wall-Safe tape to attach the butterflies to the wall in a cascading pattern. This delicate and pretty decoration adds a whimsical touch to the baby shower.

DIY Baby Socks Tree

A baby socks tree decoration is a cute and easy project for baby showers or nursery decor. Start by finding a small tree or branch and place it in a pot. Then, take baby socks and clip or tie them to the branches of the tree, spreading them out evenly. You can also add little bows or other small decorations to make it look even more special. This decoration is both adorable and practical, as the socks can later be used for the baby.

Making Mini Marshmallow Sticks (Sshmallows Sticks)

Making-Mini-Marshmallow-Sticks-with-Kids

Making mini marshmallow sticks is a fun and simple activity that’s perfect for adding a sweet touch to hot cocoa, desserts, or for use as a treat during holidays or special occasions.

Making Easy Mini Marshmallow Sticks

Mini marshmallow sticks are not only delicious but also versatile. You can customize them with different types of chocolate, sprinkles, or other toppings to match various occasions. They make for a fun and tasty DIY project that can be enjoyed by both kids and adults.

Here’s how to make mini marshmallow sticks:

Materials You’ll Need

Mini Marshmallows: You can find mini marshmallows at most grocery stores.

Toothpick Sticks: These will serve as the sticks for your mini marshmallows. You can use either toothpick sticks or wooden skewers, which you can cut down to the desired size.

Melting Chocolate or Chocolate Chips: You can use white, milk, or dark chocolate, depending on your preference.

Sprinkles (optional): For decoration and added flavor, you can use colorful sprinkles or other toppings.

Steps to Make Mini Marshmallow Sticks

  1. Thread Mini Marshmallows: Thread the mini marshmallows onto the toothpick sticks or skewers. You can push them down the stick, leaving a small space at the bottom for holding.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate according to the package instructions, usually in short intervals to prevent burning. Stir the chocolate until it’s smooth and completely melted.
  3. Dip and Coat Marshmallows: Dip the marshmallows into the melted chocolate. You can dip them partially or entirely, depending on your preference.
  4. Add Sprinkles (Optional): While the chocolate is still wet, you can add sprinkles, crushed candy canes, or other decorative toppings to the coated marshmallows.

This gorgeous pink and silver Minnie Mouse themed baby shower was decorated by Sugar Sweet Events N Prints. The party was filled with pink and silver decor in true Minnie Mouse fashion.

The dessert area for this party was incredible! A pink platter with an “Oh baby” sign reserved a special spot for the cake. Two stunning pink floral bouquets were beautifully displayed on either side of the large cake platter. They were wrapped in black and white polka dots and looked absolutely gorgeous.

Each caramel apple featured an adorable Minnie Mouse bow. There were even chocolate bars with custom-themed wrappers. Guests looking for something salty to go along with their sweets could grab a bag of potato chips that were designed to fit with the party theme.

The background of the dessert table was equally incredible. A large Minnie Mouse banner was designed with the name of the baby being celebrated. The banner was framed with sheer pink and white curtains. Sparkling silver curtains on the outside edge completed the perfect background. A cascade of pink, white, and black balloons matched perfectly with the party decor.

Sheer pink and white curtains were elegantly draped across the silver curtains. Two large white throne chairs were decorated with sparkly pillows. The floor was even covered with a soft gray rug.

The guest tables were also decorated to fit with the theme. Every table was covered in a sparkling silver tablecloth and table runner. The centerpieces included gorgeous pink floral arrangments with a Minnie Mouse cutout in the center. The chairs were covered in white and included pretty pink accents.
