DIY: Baby Booties as Give-aways

Planning a baby shower is so much fun…  it’s a celebration for the mother to be and for her to be at ease. A recent baby shower was so much fun… especially when everyone pitches in!!! It took some DIY, Pinterest and YouTube inspiration, awesome food and to top it all up with some fabulous and gorgeous cupcakes and cake! What a fun day it was!

I had so much fun being a part of the décor team… made the pompoms… star strings for decoration… and my favorite… I managed to make baby booties as give-aways… it doesn’t cost much… all you need is some plastic or foam cups, scissors, ribbon, stapler and some candies of your choice.

Joy in Doing It Yourself

Have you experienced the joy of “doing it yourself”? I never considered myself a DIY person until lately when I co-hosted a baby shower for someone dear to me!! The feeling of self-sufficiency, choosing your own colours and textures and using it to your heart’s content was awesome and fulfilling… I finally managed to overcome my fears of trying out DIY projects…. I would love to know if any of my readers are DIY fans or never experienced the joy of DIY!!

Here are some pictures of some décor that I managed to create... click on the caption of each picture for tutorial
