If you have checked out my previous post, I have rounded up a couple of ideas for centerpiece that works well with any type of baby shower theme. In case you can’t decide on the previous list, here are more ideas that you can look into for inspiration, and hopefully help you come up with something you and the guests, and the expecting parents can marvel on and enjoy.
Without much further ado, allow me to share with you these beautiful centerpieces:
1. Sand and Shell
This centerpiece is perfect for an evening baby shower on a beachside. If you are not having the shower by the seaside, this centerpiece also works well for other outdoor venues.
The idea is to place slim candles, around 2-3 pieces inside a clear glass vase. Secure the candles at the bottom of the vase using candle adhesive. Then gently pour a few inches of sand into the vase, and add a couple of shells on top of the sand. The glass vase will refract the light from the candle, giving you that sweet and relaxed ambience, plus it also protects the candlelight from the breeze when you are in the seaside or the wind because you’re outdoors.
Make a couple of these arrangements and spread them on the table if your having a long table or one on each table if you’re having couple of small tables.
2. Tea Tin Vases
This one is perfect for tea party theme, but also works well with other baby shower themes. It uses a recycle concept by making use of empty tea tin containers and giving it another life by turning them into unique flower vases.
Make use of both vintage and new tea tins. Tea tin containers usually have interesting designs, old-fashioned prints and letterings, and comes in different colors. Clean these tea tins and put some water in it. Fill each one with different kind of flowers – roses, sweet peas, gomphrenas, and for taller tins you fill it up with carnations, daisies or chrysants. No need to worry about leaking water on the table, because tea tins are watertight and leakproof.
3. Rose Arrangements
This one is very easy to make, but nothing short compared to other floral centerpieces, because a rose alone is beautiful on its own.
The idea is to display a single rose in a glass votive candleholder. Each one with a different colored rose. Make sure to cut or trim the stem, and then arrange them in a set for each table. Make a couple of the same set. This centerpiece really, really gives a stunning look to your venue.
4. Tiered Lilac
This centerpiece really lifts up the aesthetic arrangement of your baby shower. Make use of your bigger bowls in your kitchen or chinawares, put a vase inside a bowl to have like tiered vessels. Then, fill each vessel with lilacs or other highly fragranced flowers like lilacs. You can mix the flowers, but better to have one kind for each set-up, that way you can have single frangrance for each. Using highly fragranced flowers like lilacs help set the mood at your baby shower.
Hope this list here helped you find the centerpiece idea that you are looking for. Like I said in my previous post, you can mix and match centerpiece ideas to create something unique and wonderful. And like I also said.- you can never really go wrong, as long as your certerpiece is not overtly done. Because “simple” is often better and beautiful. Stay on the subtle side, but not too subdued.
