For the centerpiece I used manzanita branches with flower covered floral foam balls wedged in the branches. We hung silver cups and rattles from the other branches and had a stuffed gorilla hanging from the chandelier above.
For favors I passed out mini champagne bottles dressed up with cellophane and raffia.

This worked out to be a great idea; pre addressed envelopes for the new mom to send thank you's in.
Our friend Anna, who we've known since high school, did a great job of organizing the old match the baby picture game. As usual, she managed to be gorgeous at the same time.

The best part? I ended up not having to do ANY dishes! Thanks, girls!

I just found yor blog...it's so cute. What a great idea for a shower!
Love the Hilary Clinton posting by the way...too funny!
Everything looks beautiful! Love it!
How do you make the floral balls for the centerpiece?
I am doing a baby shower in 2 weeks and was planning to hang blue and white chinese lanterns, but you centerpiece might be better. I am not very crafty though.
love love love the idea of the champers. i am hosting a twin baby shower in a month and have added it too my list....also please tell me that isn't your own fabulous handwriting?? If so, incredibly jealous.
oh my god I just love that you are so organised. Getting people to address their own envelopes for thank you cards, why have I never thought of that? The champagne favours are a stroke of genius
Wonderful party! I love it all! I had very large floral hydrageana balls at my wedding.
Looks like a great party! Love the party favors..what a cute idea.
