While I'm waiting for baby to arrive and enjoying those first few moments once Pip has arrived I've got a few wonderful ladies looking after my blog. So grab a cup of tea, sit back, and get ready to meet some fantastic people! --------------------------------------------------------
A few weeks ago my friends and I, with the help of her mother-in-law, hosted a successful baby shower for Margot. I already shared some of my party planning tips but I thought it would be fun to expand on some of the other ideas I had, in case you have an upcoming party or shower to organize.

FoodIn terms of food, these recipes look particularly perfect for snacking while chatting and getting to know other guests at the party. Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life {salted peanut butter cups}  Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life {cake pops}  Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life{sweet and salty roasted chickpeas}DecorationsHomemade decorations really add a special touch to a shower or party and I think these ideas are so simple and yet sophisticated for any theme or occasion. Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life {paint dipped baby food jars} Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life{colourful dessert stands}

Depending on who's attending your shower, these are great ideas for favours and/or prizes. They are easy to take when you leave and have elements of both fun and indulgence. Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life  {candy jars} Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life   {chevron bag favours} Helping out Mama: with This Lovely Life  {gardener's handscrub}Have you ever thrown a shower for a friend or family member?
