Baby Shower Decoration Ideas for Boys

In my previous post, I have shared you some of our favorite baby shower decoration ideas for girls. Well, baby shower for boys can be as cute, adorable and fun as for girls. You can either have some superhero inspired decorations or traditional like cars and trucks or go conventional with some gold and glitters, why not? Glitters aren’t just for the girls.

The thing is no matter what theme or decorations so long as it fits the momma-to-be’s style and likes, will most definitely make her feel truly special. Here are some of the most loved baby shower decoration ideas for baby boys:

1. Jungle Balloons
It would be great if you can have a life-size giraffe like the inflated ones, along with other jungle animals would really be awesome. But, in case you can’t have them, then have some tropical sprigs peeking out in between colorful balloons in your backdrop and some on the walls as well. That will give you that jungle feel.

2. Teddy Baby
This concept was made popular by the Kardashian when Khloe organized a baby shower for her friend Malika. The whole baby shower space was decorated with brown balloons and neutral flowers, and ofcourse a giant teddy bear. It’s super awesome and adorable. While you have one big teddy as your centerpiece, have a couple of cute ones scattered all over the place too.

3. Black and White
You might be thinking monochrome is boring. Well, they are actually sleek, cool and very masculine, and classy too. Decorate the whole place in black and white – the backdrop with black and white balloons, and your tables and chairs too, and then add a little of gold to make the black and white really stand-out. You can even ask your guest to be in black and white.

4. Pastel
Don’t say that pastel are only for girls, most definitely not. Pastel blue or green or even orange for that matter is real sweet for a boy baby shower. It’s really charming even with just balloons arranged in your backdrop, but if you want to give it a real masculine feel, then you can add some cars and trucks. For your main decor, it would be great to make use of actual kids car toys, and then scatter some tiny toy cars on the tables.

5. Clothesline
This is another cool concept and is so cute and adorable too. Instead of making use of lots of balloons, why not make a clothesline at the back of the cake and hang some cute baby clothes for boys, a great alternative to banners. An addition to this concept could be to have a couple of plain onesies and then stack some markers and fabric paints. Ask your guests to decorate the onesies before the shower starts, and then string them up so everyone can see. Their work will make a wonderful addition to your decorations.

Hope these decoration ideas help you find the right inspiration for your upcoming baby shower. Decorating for baby shower for boys is just as fun as for girls. Don’t hold back on the colors or shy away from glitters and silvers or even flowers. The baby shower is a celebration for the mom-to-be above all, and for the mom-to-be to feel real special and happy on that day, will surely make the little man on the way real happy too.
