Today I’m featuring the ELEPHANT BABY SHOWER I styled for my sister.
My sister has always loved elephants…so when it came to choosing a theme for her shower I had no problem! I wanted it to be bright, cheery, modern and fun. I had a pink color scheme, and also incorporated the pink chevron stripe into the mix.
I used a lot of ribbon, painted tubs to look like elephant steps, hung a painted vintage frame, placed flowers in apothecary jars, strung painted peanuts as a backdrop, used a changing table and a high chair as part of the setup, had a ‘make your own italian soda’ station, tied ribbon around cute drinking glasses and more.

so so AMAZING! love your feature on the e-glossy!
Amazing work! Can´t believe you actually painted the peanuts!
What a delightful looking baby shower! Did you hand paint the peanuts or spray paint them? Either way you are dedicated and very talented!
The wall behind the table is beautiful. The shortcake in a jar and the mini cheesecake bites are a great idea. Very creative!
I am in love with this table! Absolutely gorgeous!! So well done!
You did a fantastic job!
Wow! This is beautiful! I wish I was half as creative as you!
I love it! Everything is so cute and creative. I'm curious where you got (or how you made) the string of cut-out elephants that are hanging with the peanuts. And where did you find the elephant straws? Beautiful job!
How did I miss this? Kara you knocked it out of the park! I love every single detail
I just stumbled over to you're blog/website from Pinterest and have to say I am SOOO impressed. This has to be one of the best sites I have been on. I love it! So many great ideas, my heads spinning a little lol :)
