Baby shower .

So after debating a career change to a wedding planner I tried out my event planning skills on my sisters baby shower. Shes due the 24th November and literally looks incredible, she deffinatley has the pregnant 'glow'!


I played down to her what I had planned, we both have worked in a tea room in the cotswolds for most of our teenage years so we were kindly told we could use the tearoom to host the party which worked so well as they have a cute little garden and it was such a nice evening!

I had a bit of an amazon haul and purchased bunting, paper straws, napkins, baby books and everything needed to make it look decorative. Me and my sister had been looking on pinterest and she had ideas of pink lemonade in jam jars, i told her this was abit far fetched for me to find 30 jam jars. but low and behold my mum told me she had loads in her cupboards!
They looked great, after some additional ribbon around the necks so they looked less like the bolognaise jars they were and more like drinking glasses. 





The cake was made by our neighbour who is so talented shes made all of our birthday cakes as a kid (and it was so yummy). The little cupcakes were bought by my sisters friend. They were both REALLY yummy and for a girl thats not supposed to eat dairy I may have had a slice (or seven). I now have a house full of cake that keeps staring at me!


We had a few activities planned including 'sign the nappy' leaving a message for my sister when she was changing the baby, a guess the celebrity baby name, guess the weight, date and time of birth and a few keepsakes for a baby book.




She got SO many nice presents, we were all sat there going 'omg' 'aw' 'so cute' for a good half an hour. Everythings so tiny and pink, she was spoilt rotten!


 I'm currently working part-time in a hairdressers and they were lovely enough to curl my sisters hair for her before the evening. It looked so nice with a natural wave!







It was such a nice evening and I cant wait for the little princess (shes having a girl) to arrive. I thought I would be broody but I'm okay with my puppy for now! The night ended with a rare sister sleepover!
