I recently hosted a baby shower for my niece who will soon have a baby girl. It was fun putting together a pink party.
Instead of a traditional tablecloth, I used 4 yards of pink minky cloth and tied white bows to the corners. The fabric will be used later in the baby’s nursery.
The centerpiece consisted of fresh flowers, mostly pink and white roses, with the umbrella hanging from the chandelier.I had to explain to some of my family members that the umbrella was for the “shower” and the crystals were “rain drops.”
I fixed one of my niece’s favorite treats, peanut butter Ritz crackers dipped in candy coating. This time I used pink candy melts instead of the usual chocolate.
I was able to find some little “it’s a girl” picks for the mini cupcakes. The pink icing was called Pink Lemonade.
We had pink lemonade for our beverage.
For the door decoration, I put a few small soft toys on a grapevine wreath and added some rosettes made from baby socks. I also added pacifiers to the ends of the tulle bow.
My pink Knock Out tree roses did have a few blooms for additional color at the entry.
We are ready to for the arrival of baby Hannah. We are praying for her health and for an easy delivery in a couple of weeks!
I will be linking to Tablescape Thursday at Between Naps on the Porch.

Oh it was just beautiful! We are getting ready for my granddaughter's baby shower, she is expecting identical twin girls. Looking at your pictures make me so very excited about it. Loved the umbrella idea.
Oh a sweet new baby! I can't wait to see pictures. Love the idea of using fabric for the nursery as a tablecloth.
Pretty, pretty pink decor! The umbrella and crystal "raindrops" really make it super special! My favorite color is pink, so you can do no wrong by me!!! Very pretty table!!!!
This makes me smile...we're waiting for a baby girl, too! September 12 +/-. Your table is beautiful...I really like the fabric for the table, and using it in the nursery is a great idea. I know that it was a day of great celebration and anticipation. Thanks for inviting us for a peak. Cherry Kay
I love it! Hopefully I'll be able to throw my sister a babyshower in the near future (she just got married last year), and I loe the umbrella and raindrops idea. Plus, as a mother of 2 girls (and one boy) I'm all about pink:)
