Being the mother of two boys, when asked to create a shower for a baby girl, I jumped into PINK mode.  There is not a whole lot of that color palette happening inside our home, so I started with this precious strawberry paisley elephant:

And ended up with this backdrop from the most pale of pinks to fuchsia...

Incorporating personal items is also a great way to make the event more sentimental and memorable for the honoree.  Here I used the soon to be grandmother's childhood teddy bear, grandpa's rattle and borrowed some blocks from a super sweet for sharing, cousin.

If the guest of honor is not the fan of shower games, think about replacing them with something more in-tune with her or him.  For this event, the games were eliminated and replaced by a DIY Onesie craft that allowed the guests to eat, mingle and craft at their own pace.  How to below...
