It's A Boy! Frogs, Snails & Puppy Dog Tails Baby Shower

Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails. That’s what little boys are made of. And that’s the nursery rhyme that inspired this baby shower for a very hip mama-to-be with a baby boy on the way. This mama already has a little girl (soon-to-be Big Sister) and has most of the essentials. A boy themed shower was the perfect way to hint at showering mom and baby with adorable boyish goods.

I used the rhyme as my inspiration for the invites, decore, favors and dessert (check out the amazing cupcakes below), and served a killer brunch menu. Here are some of the details from the party. I’ll write a follow-up post with a how-to for the favors.

Cupcakes by the amazing Cowie’s Confections (sadly no longer in business); wooden frog pull-toy by Melissa & Doug; favors by the Hip Hostess (how-to post here); flowers are mix of hydrangeas and hypernicum.
