Today’s {Working on it Wednesday} is all about another baby shower.

I’m working on a Woodland Themed Baby Shower for a friend who is due in February with a little girl.

The hardest part of designing this party has actually been narrowing down inspiration because there is so much out there right now for this theme. I also would like to create at least one element that hasn’t been done a thousand times before. That part might be a little bit of a challenge.

The inspiration behind the party is from a print from Green Nest on Etsy.

As for the color scheme…I’m super excited about using greens, browns and turquoise throughout the party with just little touches of pink. I don’t want the party drowning in pink, but as I just had a little boy I am dying to use this color!

And, even though I’m not the biggest fan of pink I do tend to use it in my parties.

(See my Cherry Blossom wedding shoot & Library Themed party)

Maybe it is just a good celebratory color for me?

I am toying with the idea of putting a winter spin on it because the party will be thrown in January. I mean…won’t all those woodland creatures look just ADORABLE sitting in piles of snow? But, that is just a thought right now. What would you do?

I’m really excited to design this shower. I can’t wait to use wood, moss and felt throughout the party. I think I’ll have to break out the sewing machine and make tons of felt woodland creatures!
