Shower for Baby Celia

I know how much I love to decorate for a special occasion.
This occasion was very special, the birth of my great niece Celia.

My daughter Kristy made and decorated the cake.
Not only is it beautiful, it was sooo delicious. Buttercream icing..hello 💗
This is one of her many talents.
She also made the cake for her sister Ashley's wedding!!
I made the cake banner with some card stock pretty decorative paper and some letter stickers.

My nephew named Celia after his grandmother, which is my husband's mother.
She was such a sweet lady.
Celia's middle name came from my nephew's fiancee's grandmother...who was at the shower. She is 94, not only does she not look her age, she is sharp as a tack.

Marilyn made an appearance in the decor as well.

I made a wall banner for the baby.
I so wanted it to be part of the decor, but no matter what we tried, it didn't look right to us.
So hopefully it will fit in with her nursery.

Here is a functional cake...a diaper cake :)
Not only did it serve as decor for the shower, but mommy and daddy can use them when needed...you can't have to many diapers.

My nephew and his fiancee are so thoughtful.
They gave a flower to everyone who attended the baby shower.
They even hand made the cards 💗
I was so touched by their gesture.
Then when everyone was gone, my daughter's and I were given gift certificates for pedicures for hosting the shower...talk about feeling appreciated.

I made a video on the decor :)

I hope you all have a very creative day :)

Baby Mobile Decoration for the Baby Shower

Oh my goodness, I have so much to share with you all...this is what happens when I stop blogging for awhile.
My husband had a birthday.
I went to a crop with my friends.
My husband and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary and went away to the Bluefin Bay Resort for a week to celebrate...more on that in another post.

And I hosted a baby shower for my nephew's beautiful baby girl.

This is a mobile I made for the center of my dining room table.
I started with some small tissue paper flowers I made and I tied them off with ribbon and left the strings long.
I then tied them to the chandelier at different lengths.
I then cut circles out of light pink decorative cardstock and stamped images of baby things in pink ink:)
Here is a close up of some of the images I used.

And here is the star of the show.
Baby Celia, who is named after my husband's mom 💗

And baby Celia and I.
I kind of kept her to myself....once I have a baby in my arms, I never want to let them go.

I think the shower was a success.
Everyone enjoyed the decor, my daughter Kristy's cake (which I will share tomorrow) and my daughter Ashley's photography....which these photos are from ;)

I really need to blog more constantly...I really don't like playing catch up :)

I hope you all have a very Creative day :)
