@amorasmom, depending on how "big" you wanna go... balloons, streamers, table topper & a sign are always the basics. sometimes the food/ snacks are displayed in a way that look decorative so you got that too. once you get your basics tho, its just a matter of how "loud" you want to be with it!
@amorasmom, id go to the $ store then, & do those "basics" i listed (which should keep you around 10-15$) and present your food in a decorative manner 😉 suttle but they'll get the point & enjoy the surroundings! if you're decorating for your own shower anyway, you don't want to invest 100$ on stuff that'll be looked at for a few hours! you gotta baby coming that'll gladly help you spend every penny you got! so i wouldn't do but so much as after the shower ends: none of it can be used for you or the baby & you don't wanna spend 3hrs cleaning up!
@amorasmom, well let me more specifically suggest a game like "guess the candy" where you get diapers & the bite size candybars (like snickers, payday, milkyway, ect) & melt one piece inside of a diaper... then you'll take turns passing each diaper around to guests to guess the candy! (its absolutely hilarious to watch everyone sniff n handle what looks like poopy diapers lol) - this way the pack of diapers bought fir the game can be used for baby, no $ wasted! your ballons can be anchored by a rolled up baby sleeper & a ribbon... your table topper can be a pyramid like stack of boxes of wipes, bottles, pacifiers, ect... you can buy a stationary set & use each envelope for a letter (just write one letter on each) to spell out "baby shower" & connect them with tape & the same ribbon from the balloons, afterwards you take each one back down to be sent off as your thank you cards while giving each guest a momento from your shower (a piece of the sign for each!) - ideas like that are creative, fun, & double duty! that way you arent wasting $ but neither are you sacraficing the look & feel of your shower 😉
