Let's Go Bananas Baby Shower

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of helping with Becky's Baby Shower. Ever since she was little she has LOVED monkeys! Her and her husband are expecting a little boy, Peter, so we went with a blue and green monkey theme! We ordered all of the supplies and one of the party favors through Big Dot of Happiness. I love working with this company because they deliver on time, all of their supplies coordinate perfectly, and their customer service is amazing. They don't just do baby showers either! They have supplies and favors for weddings, birthdays, and more!

One of the cakes was made by Becky's close friend. It was so festive, matched the theme, and tasted great! The other "cake" was made by the amazing and talented Nicole of Stacks of Love. Stacks of Love specializes in diapers cakes and offers two or three tiered cakes, and soon will be offering one tier cakes as well! She also provides "cakes" for house-warmings, weddings, you name it! She takes such care and pride in her work, and it shows by looking at her pictures and having the "cake" arrive perfectly packaged and ready to go! She can custom make a Stack of Love for you for any event you can think of!


For party favors we chose custom wrapped Hershey's chocolate bars. These wrappers were adorable! They had such cute sayings on the back about the Calories (Who's Counting?), Serving Size (Eating for Two), and Ingredients (A Little of Mom, and a Little of Dad, Make the Sweetest Baby, the World's Ever Had)! Becky's husband is in construction, so we wanted another unique party favor to share with the guests. I found small measuring tape key chains from Beau Coup! Her husband loved this idea (we made sure he got one too). We ordered stickers from Big Dot of Happiness to put on the key chains so they matched the theme. The kids enjoyed helping Becky open her gifts, there were lots of fun games, and everyone had a great time!
