About To Hatch Baby Shower

May 13, 2009 By

Birds are all the rage now.  I had a friend contact me to help her with ideas for a Bird themed baby shower.  I wish I was closer so I could plan it all but in the meantime…here are some great shower ideas.

A brunch is an intimate way to celebrate the mommy-to-be.  Start with invites that fit the theme.  TinyPrints has some cute invitations that you could use for a girl or a boy.

The table setting can be decorated with bird cages like this one, tree limbs and bird nests.

You might be able to still find some great deals on leftover Easter decor.  Incorporate the theme into the plate and napkins like these.

For the menu, go with Bite Size Sandwiches and Light Side Dishes.
