Throw the Mom-to-be a Stork Baby Shower

What says “there’s a baby on the way” more than the traditional stork? Host a stork baby shower that’s sure to have your guests in a baby celebration mood.

Invitations
Use paper in the shape of a stork, or white paper with a stork graphic. Start the invitations out with something like “They’re preparing for a special delivery…”

Decorations
If the expectant mom is having a girl, use pink, black and white for your colors. For a boy, use blue instead of pink. These stork baby shower ideas are for a baby boy.
Head Table:
-White tablecloth with little stork graphics on it, and blue tableware.
-Blue and white party favors.
-blue baby shower confetti.

Guest tables:
-Blue tablecloths with white tableware.
-Black and white centerpiece on each table.
-Black and white baby shower confetti.

Small accents:
-Blue, black and white streamers and balloons.
-Blue and white baby shower banner.
-A few stork cut-outs throughout the room.

Guest of honor chair:
-If possible, hang a medium sized stork cut-out from the ceiling, on top of where the chair will be. This will create the illusion of a baby being dropped in the mom’s lap.
-Attach blue and white balloons to the back of the chair.

Buffet table:
-Use the same tablecloth as you used for the head table.
-Silver serving utensils with blue and white bows tied at the ends.
-Baby shower confetti scattered on the table (but make sure you don’t put any too close to the heat).
