Shower photos by Richest Wine Photography.
An easy little project for table centerpieces. I just painted round wooden boxes from the craft supply store and put potted flowers inside. I painted a letter on each box to spell "Jacob" (I was lucky enough to know the name of the baby-to-be). The boxes were given to the mom-to-be to take home for storage and the flowers were given to the girls that helped me with the shower.
The base of the centerpiece is the lid to the box.
I'm not the best baker but decided to be adventurous! It ended up being really fun to make and pretty darn cute. The cake decorating idea came from Country Living Magazine.
and then, the quilt project...I told the girls to keep their designs simple, but....
I pre-cut flannel squares and gave each guest one or two to put their design on. Then I gave them pieces of soft fleece to cut out their designs. To help them out I provided them with cookie cutters to trace.
I had them just set the design on the square and I sewed them all later. Voila! A super cute baby quilt!
If anyone wants more details on any of these projects just let me know and I would be happy to give them.
