Winnie the Pooh Baby Shower

Somehow life got completely, insanely busy and I neglected to share the Winnie the Pooh themed shower a few friends and I threw for another dear friend. I believe I posted the preview.

I’ve always loved Winnie the Pooh books and movies. He’s such a timeless character and might I add, he has some pretty awesome quotes to live by. Our mom to be for the third time has two precious little boys already who LOVE books so I just kept coming back to this theme but wanted a vintage flair.

I love red velvet cake and I love macarons so these were a must have for the party since they are also that classic red Winnie the Pooh t-shirt color. Only, I forgot to put them out on Shower day….seriously.

 

Diaper cakes are a must have for any shower that I’m hosting. It doesn’t have to be anything fancy just throw a bag of diapers together in two or three tiers add a diaper cloth and bib with a few other useful baby accessories and voila!

 

Super simple brunch with a few fantastic ladies.

 

OMG…these were the CUTEST cupcakes ever! My friend Carol used almond slivers and jelly beans for the bee’s and that wasn’t even the best part. The icing recipe she came up with was to die for.

Basket the girls and I threw together. Good thing for the stocking stuffer isle at Target. They just happened to have all of the Winnie the Pooh clip on Characters for strollers and carseats…SCORE! Did I mention the diapers used in the diaper cake were also Huggies with the Winnie the Pooh characters?

I hate to say this, but there is always that one project that doesn’t get finished when planning events. Sadly the framed bee’s were that detail that was completely neglected in this particular project. It was in the plans to add one of those famous Winnie the Pooh sayings to the frames for mom and baby….it never happened:( Every. Single. Time. Best intentions though.

I’ve saved the best for last. Remember Fancy Flamingo? I’ve purchased cute banners from her before and she was kind enough to come up with a custom design for this shower. I couldn’t have been more happy. It’s something we used for the party and were able to pass on to mom for her adorable baby boys nursery.
