I want to share the pics of a "Hello Kitty" Themed Baby Shower I created this weekend. I don't always have a blank, white slate to work with. Sometimes its a dark, dingy, small basement like I had here. But creativity can work wonders. I'll add a couple of tips for you at the end. Check it out.
First the Before...
And here is the After...
Tip #1: Give your attendees pretty and interesting things to look at. Utilize your walls to hang curtains, posters, gift bags, etc. You want your guests eyes to land on different areas of the room.
Tip #2: Goes along with tip #1, cover up anything ugly. I covered windows, weird holes, couches and load bearing basement poles with curtain valances, posters, throws and tissue garlands.
Tip #3: Chair covers and sashes go a long way!! Nuff said.
Tip #4: Coordinate! Down to the beverages and bathroom accessories, keep everything within your color scheme.
Tip #5: Keep extra decor items on hand. Ex.Never buy just enough garland, you may need to creatively use it for something else.
Tip #6: Stop spazzing! Everything will work out fine in the end.
Happy Planning!
