A theme at a baby shower can make a difference. Having a baby shower with no theme at all can turn a supposed party into a funeral. Trust me. It’s going to be dull, dreary and most of all boring. That is why it’s important to have a motif to make the setting more pleasing to the eye and the preparations for the occasion efficient and better. To turn the ordinary into the extraordinary, we can use the lavender and brown baby shower.

The main reason for choosing these colours is its earthly tones. This way we can allow your creative juices to flow from the versatility of these colours. And the first thing that you’ll have to do with all that creative energy is to create invitations.

Yes, you heard me right. You will create your very own invitations. Not only is it easy to do, but it’s also fun. You can use brown paper for the cards and then glue a small ribbon on the front to give it that extra flair. After making the invitations you can then send them out three weeks before the baby shower. This will allow the expectant mothers friends, family, and whoever it is that was invited to prepare their gifts and to ponder about the best advice that they can share to a pregnant woman.

Now that’s done we move on to the decorations. As I said before, the tones we have chosen are versatile, that means it’ll be easier for you to add any kind of accent if needed. Since the shower will be held inside a house we can make use of the available furniture and decors. A white couch, for example, would make a terrific highlight for your lavender and brown baby shower.

If you have throw pillows you can buy covers that go with the theme. That very same couch would look stunning if coupled with a brown woolly carpet. Don’t worry if you have a different colour sofa, since any colour would only highlight the lavenders and browns of your throw pillows. To add that Zen feel to your shower you can use a large brown therapeutic candle, surrounded by white flowers, as a centrepiece on your table. Truly, perfection can be achieved from versatility.

Speaking of perfection, you won’t be able to have a perfect lavender and brown baby shower if your food doesn’t go with the theme. As a rule of thumb, some aspect of the food you’ll be serving must have a dash of the themes colour here and there. And that is where chocolates and cakes come in. It would be best to serve a dark chocolate cake since that kind of chocolate is the healthiest of all the varieties. Couple that with a refreshing drink of lemonade poured in lavender colour glass, then you’ll have achieved a perfect lavender and brown baby shower.

The things stated here are just a few examples on the endless possibilities of this kind of theme. The best advice that I can give you is to be creative no matter what. In the end, it doesn’t matter if it’s a lavender and brown baby shower or an orange and green one; the important thing is that you enjoy the preparation and that you pour your heart into the planning.

A lot of mothers want the perfect baby shower to celebrate the greatest event in their lives: Creating life. Who wouldn’t? That’s why it’s essential to create a perfect theme for a perfect event. A theme could help make your work a lot easier by allowing you to focus more on your creative ideas and will make decisions easier when it comes to the decorations and invitations. That being said, a perfect theme for an expectant mother would be a pink and blue baby shower. Listed below are the 4 W’s essential in planning for this kind of baby shower.

Baby Shower

Why

We shall be using the colours blue and pink since these stimulate the brain. It is said the colour pink improves creativity; A great help when thinking of creative ways to decorate the place where the shower will be held. Another essential stimulant that is needed is the colour blue, since it soothes and relaxes the mind. And we all know how important it is to have a stress-free environment for a mother expecting a child.

Where

A baby shower is usually held in the house of the person who planned the baby shower. It could also be held in the house of the expectant mother (Whichever is less of a hassle.) The best thing about adding a theme to an already decorated house is that the other colours can be used as an accent to your main motif. If the room has darker colours then you can have a little extra pink here and there, but if there are lighter colours then a little extra blue would help balance things out.  And that is exactly why decorators love a pink and blue baby shower: it’s versatile.

When

The best time to plan your pink and blue baby shower is at least 4 weeks before the occasion. This gives you enough time to plan everything and slowly create that perfect blend of pinks and blues in your house.

What

What you need to do first is create the invitations. It is important that you send them out at least 3 weeks before the shower for the guest to be able to pick out the perfect gift and think about the best advice to give. Of course it wouldn’t be a pink and blue baby shower if the colours on the invitations won’t match this. You can try being creative by making your own invitations by cutting out pink good quality paper joined with a light blue ribbon. Another important element is food and refreshments. It would be a good idea to serve healthy chocolate goods to keep the baby healthy. Also, we can serve fresh cold fruit juice to satisfy both the pregnant mother and the guests. One of the best fruits you can juice is the Pomelo. Not only does its pulp have a slightly pink colour to it, it is also the healthiest fruit in the market.

Remembering these four W’s does not only apply to a pink and blue baby shower, but to any kind of baby shower. Keep in mind, that by choosing versatile colours you will not be afraid to take risks in adding accents to the main theme. Now go out there and start planning that baby shower!
