FAVORS:

Honey Jars : I used the quote from Winnie The Pooh- “A day without a friend is like a pot without a single drop of hunny left inside.” 

CRAFT:

Onesie Decorating Station- I die cut (with the help of the crafty Lyons pair) a bunch of fabric into bears, ducks, and dogs for easy ironing.  In addition, I  created templates just in case they wanted to choose their own fabric and iron on a tie, mustache, or airplane. There were also fabric pens that could be used for freestyle drawing or adding a little note!   The guests then ironed  the fabric onto white onesies –  Once the crafting was over, the guests clothes-pinned the onesie to a line so that everyone could admire the cuteness!

GAMES:

Kacy found the cutest games! These were so much fun…

Safety pen Game: You start out the shower with 1 safety-pin and if you say “Baby” then you have to give your pen to whomever heard you utter the word!

How well do you know the mommy-to-be: You answer a few questions & see if your answers match up to the mommy-to-be’s answers!

DECOR:

Fabric Bunting Banner w/Asher’s Name Monogrammed! The Lyons and I crafted a fabric bunting banner with Asher’s name on it to be used for decor and function as a possible piece for his nursery! I couldn’t of tackled this craft without them! They are so talented!

Yellow Roses & Floating Candles- Dani decorated the table with some yellow roses and floating candles- It really gave a clean look and a little pop of color!

Rubber Duckies floating in small vases- Dani found this idea on Pinterest & they were SO cute!

Diaper wreath- Dani crafted this adorable wreath from diapers & baby details!

I'm interested in learning how to make the onesie with different fabric cutouts. I am also located in GA :)

The yellow roses in the twisted wire holders are such a charming detail. I love the rubber ducky, too!
