Expectant mothers typically exhibit a warm, radiant glow ౼ even if they’re not feeling quite so blissful in the third trimester. To celebrate new beginnings and mom’s natural, healthy look, why not adopt an organic farmers’ market theme? Use locally grown produce to populate your baby shower menu, and decorate the venue with earthy tones freshly picked from our Independent Creators’ stores.

If the mother-to-be would prefer a fancy mocktail to cold-pressed fruit juice, then this could be the theme for her. Incorporate pastels with pops of metallic gold and silver into your color scheme, and orchestrate that cocktail lounge ambience with fun napkins and bar signs. The olive green graphics here are also gender neutral and a good way to mix things up.

We daresay this next theme could be rather sporting! For a sophisticated touch, emulate the feel of a debonair prep school – complete with equestrian elements and plaid patterned baby bodysuits. Design items that bring to mind polo players and Varsity cheerleaders. And for the dress code, simply imagine that the baby is the youngest inductee to a prestigious boarding school, and comport yourself accordingly!

Ah, Paris. C’est magnifique, non? Planning a trip for the parents-to-be to the City of Love might be a little premature with all those sleepless nights ahead, but don’t worry! Bring that chic Parisian je ne sais quoi to them instead with romantic uses of pink, gold, or white, and hand out croissants as baby shower favors and hors d’oeuvres. Each guest will be transported to the Champs-Élysées by the time you’re done!

You’ve heard of a bun in the oven, but what about a bao? Inspired by the succulent Chinese bread rolls, this cute, playful theme depicts the baby as a dumpling ‘cooking’ in the womb. Use a mix of beige, brown, and red décor to give your space a warm, toasty vibe, and put a spin on that classic theme with fetching baby shower invitations and cards. Get ready to whip up something special!

If you’re looking for a theme exclusive to a baby boy, then how about this suitably sunny suggestion? Make use of lively, radiant colors – bold oranges, sky blues – and the sun as a symbol of warmth and happiness. Again, our Independent Creators have had some bright ideas on this front, so borrow their punny, playful party supplies to celebrate the light a new baby brings into everyone’s life.
