Centerpieces to Make Your Baby Shower a Success

Monday, January 26th, 2009

When a couple finds out they’re about to become parents, it’s the most joyous time in their lives. But as with any exciting change, the couple may be overwhelmed with all the things they need to do to get prepared for their bundle of joy’s arrival. If you are planning on helping them with this, then hosting a baby shower for them is always appreciated. Here are some ideas to quickly create easy and cute baby shower centerpieces for the party:

Diaper Cake This is one of the cutest baby shower centerpieces ever imagined. Using a bag of disposable diapers, you create round “cake” layers by binding together handfuls of the diapers. Then stack the layers into a layer cake shape and attach them together with tape or ribbons. Once you’ve done that, you can add small baby accessories like pacifiers, baby bottles, rattles and small toys all around the sides of the layers or hanging off the sides. Then add a top to the cake with a small stuffed toy, baby bank or balloons. The parents can take the diaper cake home with them at the end of the shower and use all the items for their new baby.
