Today I’m sharing all the details about a super fun baby shower our small group threw for our friend Ellen! She doesn’t know if she’s having a boy or a girl, so we went with the theme: “What will baby bee? Sweet as honey!” (This theme could also be spun as “baby to bee” or “mama to bee.”)
I got the napkins at a party store, but I tracked them down here for you too.
My friend Stuart has a cookie business and she made these beautiful “B” cookies! The sign next to them read, “B is for Baby and Bicknell and Baby Bumble Bee.”
I made treat bars with Honeycomb cereal (made just like Rice Krispy Treats).
For the guest book, I had everyone place a pink or blue fingerprint on a bee to indicate their guess as to the gender of the baby! Lots of pink bees… I guess we’ll find out soon!
I made a banner with letters I printed out and adhered to scrapbook paper pennants.
The confetti was also from a party store, but I also spotted it here.
I made a gift record page so we could keep track of who gave her which gifts. At the bottom it says, “You are so loved, mama-to-bee!”
For favors, I tied several honey sticks together (found here) with baker’s twine and a little hexagon tag that read, “Honey and babies… what could be sweeter?”
I hope she felt blessed by her shower! We all can’t wait to meet Baby B!
