Dr. Seuss Baby Shower

I was Very excited when I was contacted to style a
Dr. Seuss baby shower.  I was hired to take care of the dessert table (not the cake or cupcakes), cat in the hat and Thing 1 and Thing 2 cake ball favors, centerpieces and poms.  I had a blast with this one, enjoy!


The backdrop is actually a shower curtain, I happened to be browsing Pottery Barn online and found THIS shower curtain on sale and I had to get it!  I just taped it to a large piece of wood and it was perfect!  I actually had people asking me if I painted the backdrop before they realized it was fabric.
The cake was made by a friend of the family, her business is called Cakes by Terri, not me but I LOVE the name!!
The cupcakes were picked up at a local bakery.


Cat in the hat poms and centerpieces

One of my favorite parts of the dessert table was this tablecloth

After seeing This party on Pizzazerie by my dear friend Bird at Birds Party and this amazing rainbow tablecloth

I had an idea.  I contacted my sweet sister in law because she is AMAZING on a sewing machine and emailed her this picture.  I asked her to create me a tablecloth with velcro layers and that is exactly what she did!!!
Every red and white layer is attached with velcro and and can be changed.  You will see this bad boy in another post soon with different colored layers!!  Thank you Jenny!!!

Dessert Table

The family created the little jar of fish game, such a GREAT idea!

And the mommy to be, LOVE the pose!
