Modern Baby Shower Decorations Nothing is more favoured in life than having a baby. Friends and family come together wanting to celebrate this joyous occasion by having a Baby Shower. Unfortunately, baby showers have become boring and blasé, Decorations being store bought pink or blue ribbons and balloons. It isn't much fun anymore. Recently, things have been looking up. There are a lot more modern ways to decorate for your baby shower if you just put your thoughts in to action. First, let's bring Dad into the picture. Let him get creative and find his colours by making some baby mobiles. Forgo the usual animals and use different coloured shapes, like circles or triangles. And don't get stuck in the usual baby colour theme. Go for darker shades of oranges and greens. It will certainly reflect a more modern tone to your shower. If everyone is in the know about the sex of the baby, another idea would be to take different coloured ones, baby booties, socks, shirts and burp cloths and hang them on a clothesline around the room. Once the party is over, they can be taken down and given to the new mom to start her off on the right foot. You can also use baby bottles as decorations. Get a package of different sized bottles and fill with jelly beans, wrapped mints or chocolate kisses makes a welcome addition to any table. If you wish to get very creative, you can fill the bottles with coupons for formula, clothing, baby foods, diapers, wipes or baby's first utensils. Those coupons will be welcome indeed. Skip having cake or cupcakes this time. Mommy and friends don't need the extra (unhealthy!) calories. Instead, opt for something more nutritious, and fun, like Veggie Shots, cut up veggies in a shot glass with a little hummus or yogurt dip at the bottom. Set out, the Veggies Shots are a modern decoration as well. If you just must have a cake, make it a Diaper Cake! A diaper cake is a cake made out of diapers! It is the latest fad in modern baby showers. It can't be eaten; it is for decoration purposes and to help give the parents a head start with a batch of cloth or disposable diapers. A diaper cake is most likely made of rings of rubber banded diapers, put together to make up tiers. No need to buy one. Instructions and instructional videos can be found all over the internet. Modern baby shower decorations are limitless. All it takes is your imagination to see it and you can do it.
