Adorable Baby Shower Decorations

Tons of free, cute and unique ideas for baby shower decorations to make your party fabulous! Guests will be so impressed, they will beg you to plan their next big bash!

When decorating for a baby shower you can choose to use a general "baby-theme" or get extra-creative and go for a specific theme. A clever tip is to incorporate newborn baby supplies into your decorating! By using baby bottles, pacifiers, receiving blankets, rattles, etc you can then give these items to the mom-to-be to use when the baby arrives.

Cute Baby Shower Decorating Ideas

Washcloth Lollipops - These are a festive and clever addition to the baby shower! You can bundle them up and place them in a glass vase, poke into a wrapping paper-covered brick of floral foam, put in a cute flower pot, or lay on counter tops and tables! However you choose to display them - they will be an adorable conversation piece! At the end of the baby shower you can hand the lollipops out as baby shower favors, or use strictly for decoration purposes and give to the mom-to-be at the end of the shower to use for the new baby!

Paper Decor - My daughter got these from the craft store as a kit and I thought they were so cute and easy to make - so I made up a FREE printable template so you can make them too!
String a bunch of these onto a ribbon and use as baby shower garland to decorate for the shower! All you have to do is print the template out onto cute scrapbook paper or colored card stock, cut out the pattern and glue 6 shapes together. You could even add twinkle lights to the garland for an even cuter effect! (Or... I just thought of this! Tuck candies inside and hand out as baby shower favors!)

Baby Shower Decorations

Use Baby Bottles For Vases - fill with babies breath and daisies

Receiving Blankets Make Terrific Tablecloths - spread them all around for the cutest effect!

Tea-Lite Holders - fill empty baby food jars with pastel jelly bellies and place a tea-lite on top

Another baby shower decoration idea is to have cute rubber duckies floating in a big tub. I have seen princess duckies, aloha luau duckies, sports, daisies, cats, fairy tales, you name it!

Decorate Cups With Cute Baby Stickers

Sprinkle Baby-Themed Confetti All Around Tables and Counters

Use a white table cloth (disposable or inexpensive cloth) and put permanent markers, puffy paints and fabric paints on the table. Have each guest write a personal note to mommy and baby and maybe draw a cute picture. Write the date of the shower on it and present it to the mom-to-be!

Glue cute baby-themed cut outs to a wooden plaque and hang on the wall, or prop up at the gift or food table. {Click on picture for directions}

Hang a clothesline (heavy yarn or string) across the room and put clothespins on it, and every time the mom-to-be opens a cute outfit, socks, bibs or a blanket, hang it up on the clothesline, so you can all see it. Very cute!

Get some fabric squares and have each guest decorate one with permanent marker (and write their name on it, too), then have a crafty person sew them all together and make a baby quilt out of them!
