Frog Baby Shower

I hosted a baby shower for a friend of mine who didn't know if she was having a boy or a girl.  I decided on green with frogs because they painted their nursery green.  It was the shower that I had made the frog quilt for!

Sadly, I didn't take any photos until afterwards, so it doesn't look quite as nice as it had been.


My mother in law picked up the little frog inflatable i had on the drink table, but what I really liked were the green and white straws that I found. So cute!

We played the poopie diaper game where you put a melted chocolate bar in the diaper and then everyone has to guess what kind it is.  We had two giveaways in the brown bags, one tea themed and one spa themed.


This was the first diaper cake I ever made!  There has to be an easier way to do it, but I was happy with the way it turned out.  Obviously I have a little frog and also have daffodils out the top.  Our daffodils had FINALLY come up even though it was almost May.  The weather finally cheered up here in Michigan just in time for this shower for my friend's family to fly in.


Cake was so cute, green polk a dots in a light green around the sides and a green frog on top.  


I made the banner with my new cricut - street signs cartridge for the triangles and the same for the lettering.  The frog is from create a critter.  I hung it up with green ribbon and mini wooden clothes pins.

I just realized that none of these photos show the nice new paint job I did!  I'll have to do another post on that.  It was grayish - blueish - white and now it's some nice shades of brown.  It will just be nice to have a large rug to cover up the terrible grayish blue carpet and then eventually get a hanging light since it's so dark in there at night.  A few months ago One Kings Lane had a really gorgeous rug on sale I thought would look good, so now I'm just hoping to find another one like it!
