Baby Shower with a White Winter Wonderland Theme
Living in the south has its perks, especially when it comes to the weather. With mild temperatures even in December, it’s easy to enjoy the outdoors. However, for those who love the holiday season, it can be challenging to get into the Christmas spirit. But who says you can’t have a winter wonderland party when it’s warm outside? In this article, we’ll share with you how we celebrated a White Winter Wonderland themed baby shower, and how you can do it too!
Welcoming the Mom-to-Be
Before we dive into the details of the baby shower, let’s talk about the reason we’re all gathered here – the mom-to-be. As a first-time mom, she has a lot of needs, and while she may not receive everything she wants at a baby shower, every little bit helps. So, we decided to throw a winter wonderland baby shower that works for both genders. Even if the parents-to-be have decided not to find out the gender, this theme is perfect.
Setting the Scene
To create a winter wonderland ambiance, we decorated our home with white and silver hues. Our Christmas tree was already up and decorated, and we added pre-lit garland to our mantle. We even took down our traditional red and green stockings and opted for more neutral decor. A chalkboard sign was a fun addition to our party decor, serving as a welcome sign and displaying the menu.
Creating a Winter Wonderland Tablescape
For our tablescape, we draped a white linen tablecloth and served the food in silver dishes. The centerpiece was a combination of candles and pine cones painted with white spray paint. We also added white paper snowflakes to the table runner, which added a whimsical touch to the winter wonderland theme. Pine cones painted with a snowy finish are a great decoration choice for winter parties. Not only are they affordable, but they can also be repurposed for home decor after the party.
Food Menu
No party is complete without delicious food. For our baby shower menu, we served a mix of savory and sweet items, including:
- Chicken salad with croissants
- Pimento cheese dip
- Pigs in a blanket
- Vegetable tray with ranch dressing
- Hearty cheese ball in the shape of a pine cone served with crackers
- Christmas cranberry dip served with graham crackers
And finally
A White Winter Wonderland themed baby shower is perfect for those who love winter wonderland themes. Even if the weather outside is warm, it’s easy to create a magical atmosphere indoors. With a few white and silver decorations, a winter wonderland tablescape, and delicious food, you can host a memorable baby shower for the mom-to-be.
