Alice in Wonderland Baby Shower
This story was written by member Pretty Little Things and comes from the Super Special Occasion group in the YumSugar Community.This summer my best friend had her first baby and we made quite a baby shower to celebrate his arrival! Her favorite book is Alice in Wonderland which inspired this Alice themed party.
We started with Mad Tea Party invites, and combined it with killer details: Great centerpieces.
How to Host an Office Baby Shower
On certain occasions, say when someone is getting married or having a baby, it's fun to throw them a small sendoff celebration in the office. With a few simple decorations, you can easily transform any conference room. Recently, a baby shower was hosted for Lisa Sugar, here at Sugar headquarters.

Party Foul: Not Greeting Your Guests
At female-centric events like baby showers or bachelorette parties, it's easy for cliques to form and cattiness to flourish. Recently, my sister attended a bridal shower where the majority of guests went to the same high school. However some girls, despite knowing my sister, were cold and unfriendly.
DIY: Vibrant Pom-Pom Napkin Rings
After helping one of my friends with the flowers for her big day, I was asked by another friend to put together the festive napkin rings for her wedding. Rather than waste money on buying 60 rings, we made these flower-inspired pom-poms to adorn each napkin. These pom-poms can easily be customized to suit any color scheme.

Come Party With Me: Baby Shower — The Look
Butterflies in pastel yellow, pink, and khaki color tones are a wonderful inspiration for a baby shower's look. Start by covering the table with a pretty neutral-colored tablecloth. Serve the brunch food on pink platters and let each guest use a pretty butterfly plate.
Come Party With Me: Baby Shower — Drinks
At a baby shower, it's incredibly important to have a nonalcholic specialty drink. That way the mother-to-be can join in the festivities. For Denise's baby shower brunch, I'll offer guests mimosas and spiced pomegranate sparklers.
