The baby shower centerpiece idea is the crowning jewel of your decorating theme. They can be as elaborate or as simple as you like. Elegant and upscale or cute and quirky; take your pick.
Baby Shower Centerpiece Idea – Swimming Rubber Duckys
This is one of my favorite baby shower centerpiece ideas and is the perfect centerpiece for a rubber ducky shower theme. Take a clear glass bowl filled two-thirds with water and float rubber duckys in it. To make it prettier you could add some colored glass chips or stones in colors that coordinate with your theme. For an alternative, you could simply float the rubber duckys in your punch and have that as your centerpiece!
Baby Shower Centerpiece Idea – Fresh Flowers
Flowers are traditional for centerpieces for all occasions and they make lovely baby shower centerpieces for showers, especially for a more traditional or upscale baby shower. Of course, you can always order them from a florist, but you can make your own floral centerpiece easily.
Use any type of container you want for the base and wedge a piece of oasis (florist’s foam) into the base. Simply snip flowers and stick them in the oasis. Fill the empty spots with baby’s breath or greenery. Tie a pretty bow around the container. If you are having a themed shower, you can stick in a rubber ducky, teddy bear, baby bottle, pacifier, or whatever.
You can also just set pots of flowers on the table such as daisies, tulips or mums. Or try filling a pretty bowl with water floating cut flowers in it. You might add a few floating candles for interest. Just have fun with it. You can’t mess up with fresh flowers.
Baby Shower Centerpiece Idea – Arranged Basket or Container
Baby shower centerpieces can be made out of almost anything you can think of that fits your shower theme. Take a basket, baby bath tub, or diaper bag and line it with a cloth diaper or receiving blanket. Arrange baby items such as baby lotion, baby soap, baby washcloth or towel, baby bottles, pacifier, or rattle in the item. If you are having a themed shower, insert something along that line such as a teddy bear or rubber ducky. To make it really special, pick up a little plant at the supermarket and tuck it in too. Tie a bow around the outside and BAM! It’s a centerpiece! And one the new mommy will like using.
Baby Shower Centerpiece Idea – Stuffed Animals
If you are having some type of baby animal theme, pick out a stuffed animal to build a centerpiece around. Tie a pacifier around its neck and lean it up against a potted plant. If your theme is Noah’s Ark, just use two of every animal you can find. If teddy bears are your theme and you know someone who collects them, see if you can borrow them for the shower. A couple of teddy bears setting at a little tiny table having tea would be cute as a table centerpiece for a baby girl. Use your imagination and stage the animals in a setting. Set a teddy bear in a little chair and stack wooden blocks and little cars next to him. That would be perfect for a baby boy.
Baby Shower Centerpiece Idea – Diaper Cakes
This is the most popular baby shower centerpiece idea around. A diaper “cake” is not really an edible cake, but it is a useful gift for the new mom. It’s a “cake” made from disposable diapers that looks like a one, two, or three or more layer cake; a little like a wedding cake. And tucked in between the diapers are little items the new mommy will find as she is using the cake, such as pacifiers, bottles, rattles, booties, and such. Then the whole thing is decorated with ribbons, bows, and baby toys. It’s a lovely reminder of the baby shower she can set in the baby’s room and use as needed. You can make your own diaper cake or they can be purchased online.

Here are some cute fun ideas Make baby words Have someone select six consonants and two vowels. Then have your guests try to form as many baby related words using those letters. The person with the most baby words wins. You can adjust the number of consonants and vowels eclseted to make it harder or easier for your guests.Guess how many Get a baby bottle and fill it up with mini-pacifiers, candy, or any other item you like. Have your guests guess how many items are in the bottle. The winner can win the bottle full of candy or some other prize.I think this one is cute .Baby Shower Bag Game. Here’s what you do:1. Take plain brown paper bags or colored gift bags and label each bag with a letter that spells out “B-A-B-Y S-H-O-W-E-R”.2. Put an item for baby in each bag that corresponds with the letter on the bag (i.e. A’ can be aspirator, Y’ can be a yellow rubber duck, B’ for bib, etc.). Secure the bag closed so that guests can’t peak inside to see what the item is.3. Pass the bags around to the guests and have them write down their guess on what is in each bag solely on feeling/shaking the bags. Let them know that the item in the bag starts with the letter on the bag.4. Have the mommy-to-be open each bag to reveal what is inside. The items can be put into a nice basket for her to take home.
I love the Baby Shower Bag Game! What a great idea. thanks for sharing it with the readers.
