I had the opportunity to throw baby showers for two of my cousins this summer. They were both expecting their new additions to the family in July, one in the beginning of the month... and one at the end. Each of the baby showers were VERY different.
The first shower was an Alice in Wonderland mad tea party shower! Here we go~

Everyone at the party received a little bottle with a tag that said Take Me on it. I found these hand blown Egyptian glass perfume bottles on Amazon.com
Every place setting had a paper doily, some silverware and a tea cup... again from my grandmother's collection.

These drink me Mason Jar mugs were available for anyone who didn't want tea. We set up Iced Tea and Lemonade as well as a Keurig Coffee Maker for Tea and Coffee.
Each mug was wrapped with Lace Washi Tape and some twine to hold the tag on.
Our snack and food table was a major hit. In my family we don't mince words when it comes to party snackage, I found a lot of cute fancy ideas on Pinterest for the snack table, but nothing beats Cheese and Crackers, Chips and Dip, and a nice spread of veggies. For this shower the Mommy to Be was really craving Chicken a la King, which my grandma whipped up for her to put over biscuits. The Chicken a la King was a bit hit at the party, as far as I could tell!

We also made little cakes that said "Eat Me" on them. I don't have a good shot of all of them, but the first picture above has one of them in it.
Congratulations to the new parents! They were very excited about this party~ I'm happy to have been able to throw this party for them.
