Frugal Baby shower decorations

The other weekend we had a baby shower for one of my closest friends Genieve.



So I wanted to share some of the very cute decorations we used to dress up the community center a little bit.

This diaper cake was the center piece of the room. It was created using cloth diapers. These are becoming very popular not only as decorations but as a gift too! What a nice present it is to receive diapers!


Another thing we did was use different boy and girl outfits to make this little baby clothes line.

Some games we played included: Guessing how many bubble gum where in this jar.

Also we did these little words of wisdom note cards. This was an idea I got from another friends baby shower! (Thanks Naomi). What we had the guest do was fill out the cards with some advice that they had for the first time parents. Now the parents aren't suppose to open them until the baby comes along! I am sure they will find lots of little treasures in those cards.

The clothes pins on the card were for another game where you weren't allowed to cross your feet or your legs.

We had such a fun afternoon playing games, opening presents and eating!!! And after we left the shower we went back to Genieve parents house to eat more. Isn't this a cool chip that she found and what a great picture hubby got!!
