SURPRISE OFFICE BABY SHOWER
One of my husband's co-workers is pregnant and having a sweet baby girl, and he (the hubs) was on a little planning team to pull off a surprise baby shower for her. He volunteered to decorate, ahem, volunteered me ;) but I was happy and excited for this new challenge. Office spaces are not really good at giving you a festive party atmosphere feel, especially for a cute baby shower. But I was determined to make it feel special! The theme I was told was a book theme, and this is what I was able to pull off!
So happy I made this Crepe Paper Garland....it adds the perfect pop of color and vocal point to highlight this amazing cake!! Congrats Lauren, so happy for you!! Need more Baby Shower inspiration..check this out.
