Throwing A Fantastic Mod Mom Baby Shower

by Lisa Evans

Tired of the same old traditional baby shower themes? If you want to celebrate the mom in a stylish, updated dcor, consider using the Mod Mom theme for your shower. It’s a perfect theme to use for a working mom!

Marketed by Creative Expressions, the theme includes a line of designs that highlight the mother to be, rather than the child. If you want to celebrate the mom, this is a great option for your design theme.

Incorporating lively greens, pinks, and lavenders, the color scheme for this pattern is very much up to date. Small accents of rose, magenta, and pastel blue compliment the primary image of a pregnant mother under an umbrella.

The designers at Creative Expressions have created over 20 different items in this theme including coordinated invitations, plates, napkins, centerpieces, banners and more. All are color coordinated, and there is almost everything you need for your baby shower decorations.

One of the most useful items in the pattern is a scrapbook kit that uses all the Mod Mom colors and dcor items. The kit includes pages that can be placed in your scrapbook, with places for photos, keepsakes, and mementos of the special day. The 12 inch sheets fit standard scrapbooks.

When planning your shower, consider incorporating solid colors from the pattern into your room decorations. If you are going for a gender neutral theme for the baby, the lavender, green, and magenta colors are bright, and work well. There are also pink accents if you wish to tie in more of an “it’s a girl” flair to your event. Light blue accents in the cups, and napkins can also help you adapt the theme for the mother of a baby boy.

Using solid color accents and decorations can help keep costs down, while adding excitement and polish to your decorations. Consider selecting a few of the colors of the them to highlight, and bring out with solid color streamers, cutlery, napkins, or balloons.

When planning your cake, or baked goods, remember to get an extra plate or napkin for the baker to use as inspiration. Have them incorporate the Mod Mom colors, or the image of the mom under the umbrella, into the cake design.

Floral arrangements using pinks, lavenders, and magenta colors are perfect for accenting the design. The design also features large pink polka dots on the umbrella, so you can incorporate dots into diaper cakes, and table sprinkles for your room.

If you are looking for a modern, stylish decorating theme for a baby shower, take a look at the Mod Mom theme. It is available from several on-line retailers, and local party stores.
