Safari Themed Baby Shower

Animal Safari is one of the most popular themes for baby showers this year. We designed an adorable diaper cake for a safari themed baby shower last month. It was an absolutely beautiful event and our baby diaper cake fit right in!

Apart from Safari theme there are other animal themes you could choose from such as Noah's Ark, ducky, monkey and farm animals. You could even select your favourite animal and design a theme around it. There is so much you could do around these themes that we can assure your baby shower will be tonnes of fun.

Check out Little Dance Invitations blog post of an amazing Baby Forest Animals Baby Shower that they put together. The colour palette they used is vibrant and the decor is so unique.

Happy inspiration!

The Baby Diaper Cake had 80-85 Pampers Diaper (Size 1), 3 receiving blankets, 4 wash cloth, 1 pair socks, ribbons and flowers.


Each Baby Blossom - Baby Clothing Bouquet included 2 pair socks, 4 wash cloths, 1 body suit, 1 undershirt, flowers, ribbons and pail bucket.
