Creative Baby Shower Themes

Jenna Sims

The first thing to do if you’ll be hosting a baby shower is to collect the guest list and send out the invitations. In order to pick out the invitations, you’ll need to decide the theme of the gathering. Depending on the time of the year you’ll be hosting a baby shower, you can take full advantage of the seasonal decorations that may be available by choosing a theme that recognizes the season. Once you have picked a theme, a quick search on Pinterest will give you endless ideas for food, décor, and gifts. We’ve started the planning for you with a list of themes and invitations that will set the tone for the shower.
