Shower Gathering

 

My sister and I  recently had a baby shower at the Cavalry Club in Manlius, New York for my niece, Alison.  Since she was having a girl my sister and I decided upon tones of pink (what else!).  Alison wanted a theme of zebras, elephants and giraffes. 

 I used a wonderful fabric from Kravet Fabrics with animals on it for the center of the table to add color and I built off of that.  The wild and unusual flowers were suggested and ordered from Whistlestop Florist in East Syracuse, New York.  I used fiddles head and lime green mums among other flowers to give it a “wild” look for the animal theme.  Different baby rattles hung from the flower arrangements on each table.  Bursting from the napkins were paper pom poms I made.  It added wonderful color to the table.  Larger pom poms hung over the gift table which I situated in front of a large mirror to add color and dimension to the room. 

I carried the animal fabric over to the gift table and added wonderful ribbon my sister found to the front of the table.  Alison wanted a cozy room feel so I brought over my wonderful wicker chairs from my deck added a table and hung a painting of a mother and daughter on the beach over the window. 

So very fun!!
