    Just got married last month, and now I'm planning one of my bridesmaid's baby showers.  I'm all amp'd up b/c I get to do all these fun things I wanted to do at my own wedding after joining the Bee!  We're having a candy buffet (on a smaller scale, obviously), an 'edgy' color palette (blue, orange and brown), and edible favors.  We're also doing a vintage-y theme with owls.  I am so excited to plan all the games and prizes and such!  I want to throw a wonderful party for my friend, but am selfishly so excited to plan out all these fun details!!!

    OMG Stephanie... I did the invitations (DIY) with a little blue punchout owl on each, tied with a ribbon... and they said 'Guess whooooo's having a baby boy?'  I love owls, too.  LOL

    I have to confess.... I offered to help throw a baby shower for someone for the same selfish reasons! I'm good friends with the girl's husband and his family, but not so much her. But I wanted to help plan b/c I thought it would be fun!

    Our theme is woodlands, so we're using a lot of owls too. And we even used the same thing for our invite (Guess whooooo's having a baby). Maybe we can swap ideas!

    I just want to say that I fully support the use of owls in all things. We have a doormat that says 'Whooooooo's there?' as well as an owl kitchen rug and an owl soap dispenser. Owls = cute and fabulous. I want to see pictures of this shower for sure! It sound so much better than the ones with the paper baby carriage hanging from a lamp!
