It’s A Boy! Frogs, Snails & Puppy Dog Tails Baby Shower January 8, 2012

Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails.  That’s what little boys are made of.  And that’s the nursery rhyme that inspired this baby shower for a very hip mama-to-be with a baby boy on the way.  This mama already has a little girl (soon-to-be Big Sister) and has most of the essentials.  A boy themed shower was the perfect way to hint at showering mom and baby with adorable boyish goods.

I used the rhyme as my inspiration for the invites, decore, favors and dessert (check out the amazing cupcakes below), and served a killer brunch menu.  Here are some of the details from the party.  I’ll write a follow-up post with a how-to for the favors.

Boy Theme Baby Shower

Cupcakes by the amazing Cowie’s Confections; wooden frog pull-toy by Melissa & Doug; favors by the Hip Hostess (how-to post coming soon); flowers are mix of hydrangeas and hypernicum.
