Nautical Baby Shower

Up next, this adorable NAUTICAL BABY SHOWER submitted by Maylene of Malu Boutiques. Oh my goodness, this is so cute! Just take a look at the blue jello with mandarine orange boats! Just darling...

Here is what Maylene said about the party-“I was so excited to have had the chance to plan my nephew’s baby shower. The venue was at my sister-in-laws house. We had chosen a nautical theme of dark blue, bright yellow, and neutrals. The dessert table was accessorized with a canvas blue and ivory stripe cloth. It worked so well with the theme she had chosen. The sweet treats table included a sail boat theme cake, cupcakes, vanilla pudding, strawberries stuffed with cheesecakes filling, cookies, chocolate covered marshmallow and chocolate cover donuts.”

Mermaid Birthday Party

Today I am showcasing the cutest MERMAID BIRTHDAY PARTY submitted by Tami Goeckeritz of

Tami G. Photography. This party was actually the winner of my Summer Hostess Party Contest a few months back. Can you see why it got the most votes? So adorable. I love the vintage doors, the sand cake, the beach towel mermaid tails, the starfish sandwiches, the seahorse cookies, the "sea foam" cotton candy, the netting, the sand box & more! Tami did an amazing job!!

Here is what Tami said about the party- "Gwynn Wasson designed all of my cute printables, the invitations, banner, tiaras, name tags, Cotton Candy labels, cupcake wrappers and favor tags.  She worked so hard and designed exactly what I wanted! 

Brittany, from Edible Details, designed my darling cupcake toppers, the darling mermaids and the sea shells. I seriously LOVED them, she did such a great job!!

My table cloth was made by Nan, from Pots and Pins.

The wooden mermaid sign was done by Michelle Tucker from The little design company.

The cake was done by my friend Mari.

The cupcakes and the sea shell cookies were made by my friend Melanie.

The embroidered names on the place mats were done by Carol at Top Stitch in downtown Modesto.

My mom made the adorable mermaid tales out of beach towels.
