Inspiration Board: Sunshine Baby Shower

It's common to look to the nursery for inspiration for a baby shower theme. 
I think the nursery serves as a starting point, but a hostesses doesn't have to take the nursery decor too literally.  
For example, for a nursery decorated with yellow accessories, I've put together some inspiration for a Sunshine-themed shower.


Sunshine yellow baby blanket from Etsy. A nice gift, or use it to wrap your gift to the mom-to-be!
A table with yellow accessories, including the obligatory party poms!
Sunflowers and sunflower cupcakes are perfect for this theme.
I love using a childrens book to double as a guest book & gift to the mom-to-be (have guests sign the inside cover).
Bake it Pretty has many choices for fun yellow baking cups.
This cute little sunshine outfit gift set, the mom-to-be is sure to love!
Adorable boxed invite, in the color of the day!
Yellow star fruit adorned drink cups are a must! The recipe for this fruit punch is here. Hostesses should make a virgin batch also for any expecting guests...and the guest of honor. 
I love these sunshine prints from Etsy.  A great decoration, which could double as a gift. 
Who doesn't love lemon bars (especially these by Bakerella)?
Perfect napkins
Yellow flips flops would make a perfect party favor...and these from Old Navy are perfectly affordable.  Wouldn't they be cute in cellophane bags, tied with a yellow ribbon?

These elements definitely add up to a happy baby shower!
