Baby Shower... Baby Boy Elephant Theme...

This is another late blog it is from late november when my mom had my baby shower.. It was so cute and I already had the pics so here it is 5 months later.. Not sure if anyone else does this but for my children I pick an animal for them, my first son was dogs he had so much with dogs on it.. So with my second son I picked elephants, he has quite a few elephant items.. Of course because of this we went with that theme for my shower.. Of course it tured out super cute!! 


This is the decor I choose, too cute, right? You can find this at BithdayDirect I highly recommend this website they are very reasonably priced, shipped very quickly and take paypal.. In this pic are the mini centerpieces, a bigger centerpiece, napkins, wall hangings, banner, plates and balloons.. It was all about $36 with shipping, I got a lot of compliments on this theme!! 


This is a pic of the favors we gave to the guests.. The kiss labels were from the ebay seller creative_party_labels this is also where I got the labels for the candles (we got the votive holders with the white candles in them at walmart).. The mint favors were from try*here*1st on ebay.. The favor tags and my invitation was made by QTpartyDesigns on etsy, they were the exact theme that was from the birthday direct items.. I don't have a pic but my son had a big brother pin that was made by the seller SpiritThings on etsy, she matched the theme perfectly.. 


This is a pic of the door prize game.. We took little plastic baby blocks (from dollar tree) and wrote numbers on slips of paper, then put them in the blocks, then the guests all picked a block and I picked the winning number.. 


Another game we had was the price is right, that is where you take baby items and your guests have to guess the correct amount that each item cost with out going over, who ever has the most correct wins!!The pic above is the table with the items our guests had to guess.. We also played the cotton ball game, that is where you fill a bowl full of cotton balls, then you blind fold your guests and they have to get as many cotton balls as they can in another bowl with a spoon, this game is so funny, you think your getting a bunch but then you realize it was like 2 or 3 (don't have a pic of this one)!! 


The pic above is how my tables were decorated,, in the middle are two small elephant centerpieces, with baby boy confetti (bought off ebay), with little plastic booties, rattles, bracelets and carriages (all of these were purchased from dollar tree) filled with the kiss and mint favors..

Then at each place setting was a napkin with the favor bags, an envelope for address for the thank you cards, index cards for the price is right game and a blue pen to write everything with.. I really liked how it turned out my mom didn't spend a lot but it was still really cute!! Most of the items were bought offline or at dollar tree if anything was purchased online I tried to put the link in case anyone was interested.. Hope this helps someone looking for shower ideas!!
