Carnations and baby's breath are 2 of the most affordable and long lasting flowers for a baby shower.

Use small mason jars as vases for whimsical floral arrangements. Choose blooms that match the baby shower's color palette or go for soft, neutral tones for a more classic look.

Peonies, roses, carnations and baby's breath can all create a dreamy vibe.

Cluster a few jars at different heights in the center of each table, or line them up for a stunning display on a mantel or shelf. The natural beauty of the flowers paired with the rustic charm of the jars will be sure to make guests feel welcomed and at ease.

Purchase a bundle of each and add a few to each mason jar. Add water and wrap a strip of burlap and ribbon around each jar. Secure with a dab of glue from a glue gun. So easy and cute!

It's amazing how some simple twinkle lights can change the entire mood of a party. They add a sense of warmth and coziness to any event.

It is so easy to light up a room with the gentle glow of fairy lights tucked into rustic, nostalgic mason jars.

Tuck a small string of battery-operated fairy lights inside each jar, and watch as they illuminate the space with a cozy, star-like twinkle.

You can place these glowing jars around the party area, on tables, or even hang them from tree branches if you're hosting an outdoor shower. As the evening rolls in, the warmth of the light will create a truly unforgettable ambiance.

I love this centerpiece for baby showers. The elegant orange flowers and the greens added are just perfect! And to top it off, the bunchy burlap gives it a fresh, rustic feel. You can choose to use fresh flowers or buy realistic, artificial flowers that will last for years and can be used over and over again for different events.
