Mi Casa: Araby's Shower
So Monday night was the big baby shower I've been planning for months for
Araby and Mr. Peanut! Here are some pics along with all of the details for where I found everything, links to recipes and all that good stuff. Mostly I have to thank my Mama and my sweet lil Grandmommy for a) party planning skills in my genes and b) half of the supplies!
I am so excited for little Mr. Peanut to arrive! Hopefully he's not too traumatized from the sing-a-longs on the limo bus last weekend;)
I cut out a bunch of green triangles and sewed them onto green ribbon in alternating colors. |
The Guests of Honor arrived in a GREEN car because I needed everything to match;) |
Guests were asked to guess the number of peanuts in the jar... the one closest to the real number won a Pacifica Prize Pack! |
I made minty, peanut-shaped candy out of peanut candy molds from Bake it Pretty // I put the little candies in these vintage bags from Bake it Pretty's Etsy store |
I bought these green pom poms from Pom Love on Etsy |
I went with kind of a tapas theme for the food, with lots of things to nibble. I also made white sangria. I basically adapted this recipe... don't add sugar, it's too sweet! |
I made vegetarian paella with grilled sausage on the side for the carnivores:) |
The dessert table featured fresh fruit, lemon tarts, vanilla meringues and homemade lemon cupcakes! |
The cutie preggo with Ms. Nicki and the green spread! |
