Green Baby Shower – DIY Green Baby Shower Ideas

This week we’re looking at some Green Baby Shower Tips. Today some DIY baby shower ideas that are green and easy to pull off.

Cute cupcakes:

• Choose an organic cake flavor – personally, I think lavender or raspberry make nice baby shower cupcake flavors, but you can pick any old flavor.
• Use sustainable baking methods – i.e organic ingredients, reusable cupcake cups or pretty cake molds and so on.
• Decorate with pretty little candied lilacs or other edible flowers.

Pretty little organic roses:

You can buy organic cloth diapers, onesies, washcloths and more for the mama to be then roll them into sweet roses, lolly pops, or even bunnies. These double up as sustainable decor and gifts at a shower.

Wrap it right:

Lighten up:

I think that for an evening shower, twinkly LED lights strung around the room are pretty. However, you may also want to make some nature based candle arrangements. Candles are soothing – and every mama deserves a fun BUT relaxing baby shower.

Rock the party:

Rocks are the ultimate in natural party decor. It seems unlikely, but true. Rocks can be written on and used as plastic and paper-free baby bingo markers or dish markers (i.e. “Spring Salad”, “Dressing”). They can also be used to create homemade shower gifts – fill up recycled glass jars to the 3/4 mark with rocks; add soil, and a nice easy flowering plant.

Sea glass favors:

You can make cool favors with recycled sea glass beads – OR even have a necklace making event at the shower.
