I planned a super cute Hot Air Balloon baby boy shower for my niece and nephew for their first baby last weekend and it turned out great!
Decorations
The decorations were super easy to make using paper lanterns, bakers twine, scrapbook paper and mini metal white pails. I hung them from the ceiling using fishing line and push pins. Tutorial will be posted tomorrow.
I also strung some white balloons together using fishing line to create a “cloud” effect hanging above the hot air balloons.
Simple Brunch Food
For the simple brunch food I served mini quiches, donut holes, a veggie tray, asparagus wrapped in puff pastry, a tiered tray filled with fruit, little chocolate elephants and yummy mini lemon cakes from Walmart!
It was really pretty simple with very little baking involved which is super helpful when planning a baby shower. You don’t want to be baking and cleaning up when guests arrive.
Centerpiece
For the centerpiece on the table I bought 2 dozen white roses from Costco. Then I found this adorable little stuffed elephant that matched the Hot Air Balloon Baby Boy shower invitations we used from Greetings Island.
My sister drew the darling elephant and congrats on my huge chalkboard to welcome our niece to the party. You may remember this chalkboard at my daughters wedding where we served hot dogs! It was soooo fun! I also did another fun baby boy shower with an Indian tribal theme a little while ago that has some really fun food ideas.
