A baby shower...with a touch of vintage Disney!

We are anxiously awaiting the birth of our eleventh grandchild, a little girl.  My daughter's friends gave her a shower and I was happy to help with the decorations.  The theme was vintage Disney.  We had fun collecting storybooks from thrift stores and using them for decorations.  I was also able to recycle some of the decorations I had used for the Mad Hatter tea party from last year.  It was a beautiful shower in her friend's backyard.

My daughter found this beautiful IKEA tray at a thrift store for only $3!  I just cut her daughter's name with my Cricut and taped it in place.  

We used the books that we collected and made a cute vintage bunting to put around the tables.

As a last minute addition, I fashioned some bows from the extra pages.  I placed these on each corner of the tables.

Some of the extra special pages we mounted onto cardstock that had been preprinted with a whimsical frame.  I used the placecard holders from my son's wedding to display them.  I love the covers of the old Reader's Digest books!

We placed the beverage containers on a variety of metal tins to go along with the eclectic decor.

 One of her friends carved this cute Mickey Mouse watermelon.

I didn't snap a picture of the desserts before they began serving them, but they were gorgeous trifles, and so delicious!

The happy mom-to-be with two of her good friends.

I really appreciate all of the hard work given by her friends to make this shower extra special!

I like to link to these great parties!
