Today I threw my lovely sister in law a Baby Shower! It is my very first shower that I have thrown and I definitely had a blast! I really wanted to make this one super special since it is baby #4 and it may be the last… I guess, we never really know, do we! Anyhow, I did a ton of research and found some great and inspirational Baby Showers! I will share a list of links later in the post, along with our menu.

They dont know if this is going to be a boy or girl (crossing our fingers for a girl!) so I went with a Purple, Blue and Green color theme. Peacock feathers were my initial inspiration, but I never ended up using any in the decor — mind you, I had them, just forgot to use them! Woops! I wanted the shower to be elegant, so I had some fresh flowers, crystal glasses and we even had it outside; what a blessing to have warm weather the week of Thanksgiving! Ever seen anyone use POTS as elegant decor? Well, my dear friend, Karen came up with this great idea to use them to hold the Cotton Candy Cones and the Champagne… all it took where a few extra strands of ribbon and voila! Beautiful!

I couldn’t pick just a few photos to show you, so I placed them in a slideshow below … Enjoy!
