Little Monkey Shower

Description

The sex of the baby was unknown so we did a little monkey theme with colors of green, brown, yellow. It was a couples shower so some highlights were "feed the baby" corn hole game. Cake Pops with monkey faces and lots of food!

Design Inspiration

The invitation 

Decorating Style

Easy

Project Details

I love to go outside when possible.  We used burlap for a natural look.  We  hired a baker for the cake and cake pops. The display of the cake pops was the color scheme, brown sugar, yellow banana runts, and limes layered in square vases with the pops stuck inside. 

We hand drew and painted the corn hole game on card board and attached on top of a regular game board.  We purchased the multi colored bean bags and wrote the names of baby food on them squash, carrots, peas, strawberries.

Would you mind sharing the details of the feed the baby corn hole game? Is it done in groups? How is a winner selected? etc.

Would you be willing to sell the cornhole baby image? Or a stencil sketch of it or something?

Kristin,

I should have read your entire post first, I see that you hand drew it. It's really adorable!

Please tell me where you got that cornhole board! This will be perfect for a shower I'm throwing in October!

The cake looks so adorable! And those monkey lollies look really yummy and pretty too, especially in those square glass vases with the little bananas!
