Baby Fever

Hey guys! This weekend was my cousin's baby shower, I did some of the decorations for the party. It was held at their church so the room was really big that we were in. Made it nice you didn't feel so cramped and on top of each other, there were about 30 people there.

Here is the diaper cake that I made. You can find numerous of very cool ideas online so I got a little creative and this is what I came up with. I think it turned out cute.


Here is the diaper carriage I made. I found some tutorials online but nothing was working out the way I planned, so I used a basket I had and I wrapped it with a receiving blanket, I made the hood and wheels out of diapers. I thought it would be cute to display the silverware in here.


For the centerpieces, I found these little buckets at the dollar tree and put a piece of foam in the bottom, I used the paper shred from there to cover that up. Using my cricuit I made a frame for all of the pictures I printed out of them attached it to a popsicle stick and put it in the foam. Baby Benjamin was born 10 weeks early he is still in the hospital but doing very great!


I made  the banner with my cricuit and some pom pom's. Those are really easy to make.


Here's a picture of the cake they had made its so darn cute!! We used the colors from her bedding for the theme for the shower. It matched perfectly.


I am joining Debbie for her newbie party go check it out! 


And Carrie for Amaze Me Monday



I will be back soon with some new goodies I bought the other day. Stay tuned.
