Bless this Nest Baby Shower 4.13.13

I am so excited to finally share our Bless this Nest baby shower on the blog. It was so much fun hunting for all the rustic/ vintage pieces that would help in the styling and creation of this concept for mama to be Lannie.
 
Since this is baby #2 for the gorgeous mama to be, I couldn't help but fall in love with this very fitting rustic wire bucket, it was such a great find! It served as an awesome styling prop, we included some baby onesies and a pair of vintage looking baby boots.
 
 
Table Top setting: for a delicate rustic concept, we dressed the tables in white linens and hand-laced burlap runners. For centerpieces white bird cages were nested on birch wood flat slabs, mason jars adorned with lace contained twine-tied bunches of jip (babysbreath) and mason jelly jars wrapped in twine contained floater candles. Round wood slabs were used as table numbers- numbers were stenciled with paint. White chair covers and hand-tied burlap sashes dressed the chairs. 
Rustic Dessert Table: Vintage looking baby onesie cookies were nested on square birchwood slabs adorned with doilies. The cookies were so delicious!

Escort cards were printed on kraft stock and were displayed on birchwood logs.



 
 

 
A rustic baby bookshelf was displayed and was quickly filled with baby books brought in by guests.
The bookshelf was built from wine crates.

 
Some more escort cards, these were hanging from a moss frame.
They were attached to twine with baby clothespins.

Our rustic dessert table. The 'Sweets' banner was printed using vintage newspaper print on kraft paper. Fabric strands attached to birch branch worked as garlands and adorned the dessert table as a backdrop.
