Monster Party Inspiration

I am planning on throwing a Halloween party this year, and after looking through what seems like

 HUNDREDS

 of Halloween theme ideas I have gone back to basics and am going with a

 MONSTER THEME!!

 

There are so many cute ideas, here are a few that I have chosen to incorporate into my party!!

 

Of course I have all of my ideas Pinned on Pinterest and will share the link to that as well!!

This is the cake idea I am going with...I found the pic online, could never get it to save on Pinterest with the original link, so I had to download it to share with my baker...so to whoever came up with it, I APOLOGIZE that I can't link back to you....but I love your cake idea :))

 

I love dry ice!!  I have no doubt the kiddos will think this is pretty awesome!!

These are super cute for favor/treat bags.  They are really simple to do.  They bags are available at Hobby Lobby as well as the eyes.  It looks like all it would take is a little hot glue and imagination!!

 

Thought this was a super cute idea for a game at a Monster Party!!  I'm sure it would be easy to re create!!

Showered With Love Baby Shower

My oldest daughter had the privilege of having a beautiful baby shower thrown in her and her sweet new baby's honor.  The theme was "Showered With Love".  The ladies did an excellent job of putting it together and so much fun was had by all.  Since Miss Avery decided to make her appearance about two weeks early, she was there to enjoy the festivities as well <3

 

This display was on the table where the gifts were placed

 

This display was on one of the guest tables

This display was on another of the guest tables

 

There were two tables with eight chairs per table

 

A "wishing cloud" where each guest could write in permanent marker on a rain drop well wishes for the new baby <3

 

 

 

 

 

 

The silverware was placed into a small glass vase....and then printables taped to the side

 

 

 

 

An assortment of pastries

They went with pastries, a fruit display and pigs in blankets instead of cakes because cakes are so "over done".  Everyone can have cakes, why not be individual and do something different?!

 

 

 

I actually made these myself to help out.  They are very simple to make!!
