Sugar & Spice

I recently threw a baby shower for one of my friends. She chose the colors pink, aqua, and yellow. She isn't big on animals for babies so we went with patterns instead. Paisley, stripes, and polka dots were our starting point.

Of course for a baby girl we need a Sugar & Spice Candy Shop!


For the candy shop awning I bought a roll of pink gift wrap and traced off the lines with a pencil then later went over it with a black paint pen. In the pictures it is hard to tell but every other stripe on the awning is glittery and for that I used glitter Modge Podge. The background for the shop is a vintage sheet that I cut in half. I was so lucky to have that on hand and in the perfect colors!

Guests were asked to fill a punch cup full of candy before they sat down which would later be used as their markers for baby bingo.

Each layer of the cake was a different flavor, chocolate, strawberry, and vanilla.

Instead of punch we had pink lemonade. Lemon slices frozen with pink lemonade in a bundt pan made a super cute ice ring.


Now for the fun part! Decorations! The event took place in an old church with beautiful stained glass windows around the entire room. To make the windows tie in with the baby shower we strung baby clothes made out of paper across each window.


For each table I made Heather Bailey's paper globes.
