Nothing says "party time" like balloons so be sure to float some around the room. Party supply stores usually carry an assortment of balloons tailor made for a baby shower. Choose a dozen or so regular-sized balloons to tie onto tables and chairs or opt for several oversized balloons to hang at stationary points around the room.

Paper Fixtures -

To liven up any space, be sure to hang several paper fixtures around the room. Choose from paper lanterns, tissue paper pom poms, or any other sort of unique paper fixture. You can hang them above tables and doorways and most are simple enough to hang up and take down.

The right cake stand helps to add an air of celebration to any baby shower. Fill it with cupcakes or stack a decorated multi-tiered cake for an edible centerpiece that will set the mood. Choose matching cupcake wrappers or a cake decorated to match the theme of the baby shower in order to make it a true decorative item.

Immediately establish the theme of your baby shower with the perfect centerpiece for each table. Beautiful flower arrangements or candles are more traditional centerpieces that are always a great choice. You can also choose to get a little creative with a unique centerpiece such as oversized gift boxes or baby bottles filled with colorful candy.

Tulle - Tulle is one of the most elegant, yet inexpensive fabrics and it's a staple for any event decorator. One of the great things about tulle is that there are so many creative uses for it and it's super easy to hang around walls, tables, chairs, from ceilings, etc. Consider adding flowers, bows or lights to the tulle for a little extra flair.

Napkins & Utensils - Matching napkins and eating utensils are the perfect compliment to a great centerpiece. Mix and match the colors and patterns of the napkins and utensils to add an even more customized look and feel to the space. Wrap the set up in a color-coordinated bow and your table will be that much closer to baby shower beautiful.

Diaper Cake - The icing on the cake for any baby shower is a custom-made diaper cake. Use one of these adorable centerpieces to add another touch of "baby" to the shower's theme. The gifts table is a great place to display one.
