Baby Shower Decorations
It can be easier coming up with baby shower decorations if you know the sex of the baby before the baby shower However, although an increasing number of parents to be are learning the sex of the baby before they give birth, many tend to keep it a secret from friends and relatives.

Centerpieces
Rather than use plain flower centerpieces, you an make a candy bouquet or candy arrangement as a centerpiece.

You can order candy lollypop baby feet online in bulk and make your own centerpieces using other types of lollypops as fillers. They do not need to be very large and can even double as baby shower favors if you make one for each guest. You just need a container and floral foam and you can use lollypops the same way that you can use silk flowers.
Another type of flower piece involves fishbowls and plastic ducks. You can color the water in the fishbowl blue, put in some sparkles and a baby duck into the fishbowl. You can then place the fishbowl on a mirror. If you would like you can also add marbles to the center of the fishbowl to make it even prettier. Colored marbles or rocks will make this look like something very pretty and the baby ducklings floating on top spell "baby shower."
Confetti
Confetti is really inexpensive and can do wonders to your table arrangement. You can put confetti that is shaped like pacifiers or baby bottles all over the table, scattering it casually to add ambiance to the dcor of the room. Baby shower decorations are usually in pink or blue or a mixture of colors if no one knows what the new baby will be. Scatter confetti on the table everywhere - this is a celebration.
