Birdie Baby Shower Details
My Bestie’s baby shower was Saturday, and my friends and I had a lot of fun! Here are some of the pictures of the details, unfortunately not all of it was captured on film, but most of the fun stuff was. We used the community room at my condo which provided contemporary furniture, seating for everyone, and a great roomy space. Instead of buying decorations, I grabbed all of the mis-matched pillows from my entire condo and put them on the furniture in the room. It made the room feel grown-up and cozy!
So, here are all the birdie-themed details, to match the birdie invitations:
I, of course, cannot take credit for those adorable cupcakes. Elida from ByElida.com created those, as well as the yummy tarts below. Those goodies on cake stands served as the perfect centerpiece. A metal birdhouse kept little notes that the guests wrote to the parents-to-be, and instead of games, we had a raffle for little bird-related gifts.
A full crepe bar for the ten o’clock shower was perfect to get everyone chatting and relaxed. I marked each ingredient with tags and menu holders… more for cuteness factor than for necessity. Whitney at Whisker Graphics helped me with all the paper for the shower, using our little nest graphic. Thanks Whitney!
I definitely haven’t shared everything, I’ll be adding more posts soon!

Those tartlets look delicious! What an adorable shower. The theme and color scheme are beautiful.
Everything was PERFECT!! I loved every second and it was so fun to be around great friends, beautiful decor, and delicious food!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Those bird cupcakes are ADORABLE! Don’t tell me you actually made those yourself (I might melt from jealousy). I definitely would use this theme for any future baby showers – right now I just have to get past my friends’ future wedding showers.
Great job!
Love the place cards and it was set-up so perfect! Beautiful job!
@ Jess LC – NOOOOOOO way did I make those cupcakes. Food is ONE thing I don’t design. I just aint no good at it! Loved doing the shower!
Brooke, this looks fabulous! You did such a great job! I love the bird cage/card idea. I really might have to “borrow” that one. And a crepe bar? genius.
You’re the BEST best friend ever. It all looked brilliant. x
Hi Brooke, I found your website on Facebook and love it! Beautiful designs!! I love all the detail at the shower!
This is so cute! I’m planing a bird themed baby shower for my friend in April. Did you make the nests cards that you used for labeling the food? If so, how?
Thanks for sharing!
@Dana – I just printed out the nest 12 times on a page and cut them out to be little cards. I rounded the corners too… Good luck!
Hey, Brooke- I am looking for a small bird cage like the one pictured. Can you share where you found it? Thanks!
@Danielle – I’ve seen that Martha Stewart has birdcages like this in the wedding section of Wal-Mart. This one was a decoration my sister had and I have no idea where it’s from. Here’s one on oriental trading company: http://www.orientaltrading.com/ui/browse/processRequest.do?requestURI=processProductsCatalog&categoryId=377320&BP=10575&ms=cse&cm_mmc=GoogleBase-_-datafeed-_-datafeed-_-datafeed&sku=3/3801&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=3/3801
