A Little Pumpkin Baby Shower- A Cute Fall Theme!

When I found out my sis-in-law wanted to have a "Little Pumpkin" themed baby shower, I was thrilled!  How cute is that for a fall baby??  Here are some pictures from the adorable shin-dig!!

The Front Table included lots of pumpkins, some cute belly shots, lots of fall cuttings, a memento box for the parents to be and new baby girl and a few baby name books for fun!  And of course a Little Pumpkin banner!!

 The Table Centerpieces were pumpkins with flower arrangements, requested by the mom to be.  I found small vases at Dollar Tree and helped to stabilize them by pouring rice inside of the pumpkin and around the outside of the vase.   I also made these cute painted jars from old spaghetti sauce jars and olive oil jars- I loved these as well!!  To add a splash of color my girl friend helped me to whip out table runners from Joann's clearance section fabric that helped tie together all the colors as well!
A Memento Box was placed at the head table and at each place the guests were given "MAD Advice" sheets and "A note to the little pumpkin..." sheets to place in the memento box.  I just printed these on postcard sheets I found at Office Depot.  The parents to be will have fun reading the new parenting suggestions an the little one will be able to grow up to read the notes from friends and family to her.
The Cupcakes were a Pumpkin Cupcake with a Cream Cheese Frosting- super yummy!!  Just piped on the frosting and added a cute pumpkin candy on top.
And a fun little mimosa bar with orange juice, cranberry juice, and a pomegranate spritzer to top off the cute fall theme!!

And it was a success... we wore out my red head- sure sign a wild time was had, lol!  Hope this gave you some fun ideas if you are thinking of doing a little pumpkin shower yourself!!
