Nesting Spring Baby Shower Ideas

Spring is nature’s way of celebrating new life and new beginnings. 
The air gets crisper and the blooms all signal to it, bringing about a feeling of hope and warmth in everyone – especially expectant parents!

So its really no surprise that spring is one of the most popular times to host baby showers (hey including when I hosted mine!), because its really one of those idyllic times to celebrate the soon arrival of a gorgeous, precious new baby.

Here are a few ways to do just that with an organic, soft, and effortlessly elegant flair.

1. Craft a sweet and timeless “Nest” word backdrop for the dessert table, great for the baby’s nursery or the couple’s home décor after.. via Susan Gentile Photography .

2. Send a soft and elegant robin’s egg baby shower invitation like this one from Tiny Prints

 where the rustic organic texture of the nest - takes center stage.

3. Top a simple butter cream cake with a sweet hand-made bird cake topper like this one from Lilly Bon Bon, if you’re in a bit of hurry, or just want a showstopper topper.

4. Decorate the table with natural looking bird’s nests lined up in a row, with pretty ivory petals or faux painted eggs.. via Baby Lifestyles Magazine . 

5. Serve a gorgeous speckled egg cake like this one from The Cake Blog , to really make something unique and with loads of natural texture.

6. Gift the mom-to-be a lovely nest ring for the shower or have dad gift it as a push present for her to wear on the big day, by Kara Jewelry.
