I'm taking the easy route and hot gluing it. I know, I know. But it's really turning out cute. I purchased all of this fabric at Hobby Lobby. They were having some great sales this week too.
I'm going to make onesie cupcakes too. I'm not sure how to do them, but I figure I can come close. I am modeling this shower from the one on Me and My Pink Mixer. It was just the cutest shower. Such easy, practical ideas from Ms. Pink Mixer. She is a whiz in the kitchen too!
Speaking of onesies, boy are they making some cute ones right now. It almost makes me want another baby...almost.
I'm ordering cupcakes from here. They were on "Cupcake Wars" but have since changed their name. I can't wait to see the cupcakes in person, let alone try them! I ordered 4 different kinds. I was going to make them myself, but with Christmas coming I started to stress out about them. I think I've already begun a New Year's resolution list and I don't do those. 1) learn to quilt {I've already signed up for the once per month class!} and 2) Learn to do basic cake/cupcake decorating.
I purchased this cute cupcake stand at Target. It was on sale for $16.00. I just love it. The little vase were 50% off at Hobby Lobby too.
I really like planning parties. Now, if I could just start enjoying cleaning my house before/after the party. Ugh!

Cupcake stands are sooo much fun for a party!
I love the cupcake stand, too...it looks vintage! Enjoy this special event! Such happy times when babies are on the way! Happy holidays! ♥
Thanks for the compliments! I love the colors for your bunting - so pretty! I glued mine too - wish I could sew, but there never seems to be enough time to sit down and learn. I even have a little pink sewing machine, but it never gets used :) I'm sure everything will be just perfect for the shower. I see we have the same cupcake stand - I love mine and use it often. Good luck with the rest of the shower!
Hi Jemm - me again:)
I see that you are reading The House at Riverton. I loved that book! Have you read The Forgotten Garden? It was one of my all time favorite books! Looks like we have a lot in common :)
I bet you are having a lot of fun making things for the shower!! Your bunting is looking great! I can't wait to see a pic of your onsie cupcakes. That sounds like a really cute idea. I looked up the bakery in Topeka... oh my they all look delicious! I like your resolution list so far. I know how to piece quilt blocks, but never learned how to hand quilt. It would be a good thing to learn, but I don't know if I'm patient enough. I'd love to learn basic cake decorating too. I'm lucky to be able to pipe a straight line. So I will enjoy hearing how it goes for you.
PS- I love the quote you shared with me.
I am with you...I enjoy the planning too! So much love is going into this baby shower...I can tell! All that pink...oh' the joys of little baby girls...and boys too!
You have all the makings for a great baby shower! I have that same cupcake stand and love it! Gotta love Tar Jay for deals like that.
How fun!! I love the bunting idea, and the cupcake stand. I hope we get to see some photo's! I remember going to Carters with my father in law when we were in the States, ten years ago now. They have some beautiful clothes for babies. I had so much fun picking out things for my son. Hope all is well with you lovely one, thanks for popping by the other day xo
Looks like you are doing a great job in preparing for the shower, love the mix of fabric you chose and the cupcakes all displayed on a stand shall be a treat to behold! Wish they had the baby shower tradition here!
