Choosing The Perfect Theme For A Baby Boy

When hosting a baby shower for someone who is soon going to be a proud mommy, the best way to have the event more fun and interesting is to have a good baby shower theme that will go with all the decorations and other party goodies.

There are a lot of options to choose from when hosting a baby shower for a boy. A lot of different themes with matching decorations that will not only best suit the preferences of the mommy to be but also themes that are intended for baby boys. You can surf the net for these themes or perhaps look for an event organizer and you will see how these themes add to the excitement of the event.

Venue

When finding a perfect place to hold the event, it is important that you are in control of it so that you will be able to do the decorations the way you want them to be. A good place would be the house of the mommy to be.

One important thing to also consider is the lighting of the venue. You can put some candles in empty glass jars and place them on tables and desks as centerpieces for a more dramatic effect . This way, you will be able to set a more relaxing mood for the mother to be as well as for the guests. However, be careful with the candles as not to be placed in areas where it can easily burn stuff.

Blue Is The Color!

If you think, you are not very comfortable on the idea of working with themes, you can opt to work with shades of color and what could be the best shade for a baby shower for a boy but BLUE! From the invitations to the decorations, blue is just the color that will best suit the event. Here are a few tips on how to decorate the place and have that shade of blue motif in it.

Add a more baby boyish theme by draping the ceiling with blue ribbons and for added decor, hang some baby bottles filled with gums and jellybeans in these ribbons. By the time the event comes to an end, the guests can just take some of these bottles as goodies from a memorable baby shower experience. Balloons as well as crepe paper are also great to make the blue color theme more noticeable.

For the invitations, you might want to mix and match shades of blue and white to add up a more elegant look for your invitations. And if you want to be specific about the gifts that the mommy to be would very much appreciate then it would be a good idea to include it in the invitation cards. This way, the guests wouldn't have to go through so much bother finding the perfect gift. You would not want a present that's fitted for a baby girl in this case anyway.

When finding the right cake, you have loads of options to choose from. You can also customize it by placing a picture of the mommy to be in the cake, blue frosting of course to match the blue motif, or perhaps, have the one which is tailored for the theme you chose to work with and it's always a good idea to talk to your favorite baker to come up with the perfect and unique cake there is. With the drinks, you can also work with colors such as a blue punch or perhaps blue ice cubes.

Baby showers are always interesting and exciting when coupled with the perfect theme and decorations that work well together. Choosing the perfect baby shower theme, be it for a girl or a boy is not that difficult. All you need is a little creativity in choosing the theme and doing the decorations.
