Having a
baby in a family is a very happening incident. My bestie is having one, so
apparently, I am very much excited and really thought of sharing my ideas of
celebrating a baby shower with all the about-to-be mothers and organizers out
there.
I am really
looking forward toward onesie decorating station. Onesie decorating station is
what modern decoration system is like. At the very first place, I was left a
little confused about the idea, but then I went on with it. It is completely
our wish how to set things up, and if we want we can make it the best baby
shower party ever, isn’t it?
Since the
paint bullet thing is a bit messy, I decided to cancel it and go on with few
other better ideas. I thought of taking assistance from the guests attending
the baby shower. Since gifting the child
is already an existing ritual, I thought why not just ask the guests to make
tiny cute and comfortable clothes for the baby?
Onesies might look too monotonous
You might
keep the color and theme fixed for everything, but just do not make everything
the Xerox copy of one another. The dresses should not be all of the same shape
and size. Just that type color should be the same, otherwise, the baby will not
be able to wear all. And along with dresses, we MUST also organize things like
socks, baby shoes, feeders, lotions, baby oils, creams, diapers, formulas,
shorts, etc. We should be setting everything up a way so that the baby can use
the stuff for quite a long time.
Redoing Stuff
A lot of
people prefer borrowing clothes from outsiders who have grown up children, who
no more require those. I personally do not prefer this. There are several ways
to save money so the child might be less costly. But, it is everyone’s personal
choice, and however, you want it, if you are to borrow stuff, make sure to give
them new dyes and all so that they look new too.
Decoration
Since the
color and the theme is fixed, the decoration would also be done accordingly.
There will be balloons, party banners, slashes, ribbons, and small crowns and
cards. Picture of the pregnant mum should also be attached in places and also
the about-to-be dad. Nothing should be too fancy, but classy only.
Fabricating Fabric
The clothes
chosen or bought should be made out of extremely comfortable fabric. The dye
used to color borrowed clothes should be made out of few types of chemicals
only so that it does not harm the baby under any unwanted circumstances. No
skin irritation must occur.
We can
custom make all the clothes and notes for wishing the bay and the mother.
Stencils, such as watercolors, pencils, erasers, etc. could be provided to make
the designs. Wishing as individuals are made easy in this way.
Heated up Vinyl
Owning a
Cricut helps. Cricuts are used to cut vinyl of size 12’’ x 12’’ and putting it
over the fabric or piece of cloth in order to design it works. Any customized
design can be created in this way. It is great fun, to be honest. You can
create anything you want. Just cut the vinyl, place it over the T-shirt or
whatever you want, and use an iron over it, done!
Making Onesie Fusion Sheets
Babies pee
well too often. So, you need a lot of new bed sheets and making onesie bed
cover sheets during the baby shower is no wonder convivial. So, what we can do
is that we can get the opposite sides of old sheets, cut them down in different
pieces and shapes as we want, attach them over a new one color plain sheet with
the help of sewing, and then dye them with the theme color. That will hopefully
do the magic. And yes, remember, the bed sheet dye used should have made out of
safe, high-quality chemical.
Leaving Instructions
Do not
forget to leave instructions for the guests so that they know what to do and
how to do, as per the plan only. What you can do is make small notes, write all
the instructions in bullet points, and then stick them over one particular
corner of the table, in such a way that the notes on each table catch people’s
attention and they get to read everything and learn it all out. In that way,
there will not be any mistake and zero disappointment.
Do not forget to get the Supplements
Make sure
you have extra supplies of everything, otherwise things might turn disastrous
and also embarrassing at the same time. The extra supplements might include a
scissor, pens, pencils, erasers, color, marker, notebook, etc. I carried and
set the table with a few extra supplies: scissors, pens/pencils, A4 size
papers, a couple of irons, and a small ironing board.
The food
served to the guests should also maintain the specific color and theme set or
the party. And the menu might include items like cupcakes, chocolate boxes,
confetti, ice-creams, etc. The dishes must resemble the color.
I will be
extremely happy if the end result turns out to be a success only. I really
anticipate the baby to end up with an enormous pile of clothes and gifts, which
he or she hopes will be able to wear for a long time. The guests will be
enjoying too as well as the pregnant mother.
I really hope the idea does not turn out to be a flop.
That was my
idea of onesie decorating station of the baby shower. Yours might be a
completely different one. It is all about making the mother and her baby feel
special and safe. The task is no doubt a very big one, so hope you do not end
up disappointing the new mum and dad. I hope all of you who are planning to
organize a baby shower get help from my article. Happy Organizing!!!
