16 Baby Shower Decoration Ideas At Home
Bunny Balloon Guest Book
Turn your guest book into a piece of art with this bunny balloon guest-book idea. Draw a cute little bunny on a piece of paper, and attach small paper balloons, where your guests can sign in their names. After the baby shower, bind the art piece in a beautiful photo frame and store it as a keepsake to show it to your munchkin later.
A Diaper-themed Cake
This is one of the wittiest and most fun ideas that you can use in your baby shower. Also disclaimer: even though we named it a cake, this diaper cake isn’t really edible, that’s because it requires real baby diapers racked together to form a cake. But in hindsight, it doubles up as a stunning centrepiece and also a valuable gift for the soon-to-be parents.
If you are hosting a baby shower for your friend or family member, then along with this gift, you can add some other baby care essentials, such as water wipes, and even a diaper rash cream (as parents will need these items a lot once their little one arrives).
Hula Hoop Signs
These are probably one of the easiest DIY baby shower decoration ideas that you can try. Engage your family members, your partner, and even the kids in your family to participate in creating this easy yet beautiful masterpiece. Customise the hula hoop signs using different faux flowers and a pop of colour to it. If you want to go the extra mile, be free, and add some glitter to the signs too.
Big, Bold Balloons
Honestly, no celebration is complete without balloons! It’s like you can never go wrong with balloons. Instead of latex ones, go for bold metallic balloons of different colours and shapes. Plus, you can spell out names using balloons, so you can get as creative as you want.
Onesie Decoration Station
This idea will keep your guests engaged and also give them a fun opportunity to participate in a game and get creative. Have a separate corner at your baby shower for onesie decoration and keep some stencils ready for your guests. Ask them to create adorable, personalised onesies for your baby, and honour the best design as the winner.
Fruity Baby Shower Punch
We all know that beverages and snacks are an essential part of every celebration. But instead of making conventional beverages for your friends and family members, switch up your game with a fruity punch with a twist. All you have to do is add a blue drink to a big glass tumbler to give the look of bath water, and add a fruity sherbet and ginger ale to give the effect of bath bubbles. Top the drink with some duck-shaped candies or lollipops and you are set!
Create A Cute Buffet Backdrop
Add a pop of colour to your buffet area by creating adorable and colourful paper polka dots garlands and hanging them on your walls. This will create a nice backdrop behind your buffet table, and your guests can even pose for cute pictures here.
Disney Inspired Designs
If you are a Disney fanatic, then why not have a Disney-themed baby shower at home? You can add so many stunning items as decor, we are talking Minnie and Mickie Mouse-inspired balloons, flowers, and even food items, such as cake, cupcakes, or pop tarts. This idea is surely going to make your event colourful, bubbly, and fun, and you can even opt for subtle and minimal styles of props.
Decorate With Budget-friendly Blooms
Flowers can prep up any living space, and if you are going for a subtle and budget-friendly baby shower, then this idea is perfect for you. Create a mix of budget-friendly blooms in shades of pink and blue and place them all over your living room or party area to enliven the space. Plus, the flowers will add total esthetic vibes to your baby shower and their sweet fragrance will surely put everyone in a happy mood.
Tons Of Treats
Instead of serving full meals at your baby shower, have a big buffet of small bite-sized treats for your guests. We can name it the ‘treat zone’ and fill it with flower garlands, balloons, and tons of sweet and savoury treats, candies, cake pops, and tarts.
Create A Mom-osa Bar
Get bubbly with this mom-osa bar—a special mimosa station for all your besties. However, instead of champagne, get bottles of sparkling water to create flavourful mimosas. You can even add bowls of fresh fruits to the mom-osa bar, and your guests can pick up their favourite ones to munch on.
Have A Pop-corn Bar
Create a ‘Ready To Pop’ popcorn station for your guests, and fill it with popcorn of both sweet and savoury flavours. Add jars of fun toppings besides the popcorn, such as caramel, butter, cheddar, and sprinkles. Allow your guests to get creative and make their own ‘Ready To Pop’ popcorn tubs to enjoy through the party.
Host An Outdoor Picnic Shower
If you love the outdoors, then this baby shower decoration idea is perfect for you. If the weather is nice, you can arrange an afternoon picnic, otherwise, opt for an evening gathering in your backyard and light up the area with well-lit lanterns. Keep the food light and arrange fun games where everyone can participate and have a good time.
Make Creative Centrepieces
Give your cake stands a new purpose by placing colourful flower domes on top of them. To make these centrepieces, all you have to do is cut up the bottom of a foam ball so that it sits flat. Soak it in water for at least 30 minutes and then insert flowers into the foam ball to represent a floral dome. Place these centrepieces in the buffet area to add a pop of colour.
Use A Vintage Cake Stand
This baby shower decoration idea is perfect for couples who love to keep things subtle, sophisticated, and classic. Invest in vintage cake stands to add to your buffet area. Place different foods on tops of them, such as the cake, or other sweet/savoury treats, like sandwiches, fries, and pop tarts.
Set A Theme According To Mum-to-be’s Favourite Children’s Book
A simple yet special idea, this children’s book-inspired baby shower decoration will instantly put a smile on the mum-to-be’s face. First, find out what is her favourite children’s storybook, and then create the decor around a beloved character from that storybook. Add different props, balloons, and even dedicated photo areas for the guests and soon-to-be parents to enjoy.
A baby shower is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful events in every parent’s life, and adding these fun baby shower decoration ideas will make your event memorable and enjoyable both for you, as well as the guests attending. First, choose a theme, and then go on to personalise them to create the best baby shower at home!
