Baby Shower Pin the Mustache on the Baby Game

Last Fall I threw a "mustache" baby shower for my friend Yana. I met her when we were newly arrived in Italy and living in temporary lodging. She was in her first few weeks of her pregnancy when she shared her good news with me and some other new friend (Carmen and I coincidentally were on the same airplane and were hotel rooms neighbors). I gave her a hug clapped my hands in joy and asked if she'd permit me throw her a baby shower. I'm certain she must of thought me and my other friend completely derailed simply she obliged and to her proficient credit showed no signs of how crazy she must of idea the states. Little did she know one of my favorite things to practice is throw a baby shower. On an afternoon in the early autumn when she'd grown much rounder, and our friendship had lasted more than a few days a little mustache themed party happened in my dwelling house. Here are a few photos from that solar day…

Food:

Carmen and I decided on a very simple, yet delectable menu.

Beautiful croissants were middle stage ready to be filled with either a Waldorf chicken salad, Italian Salami, an array of cheese, or a elementary seasoned butter.

For sides we offered: crackers, olives, cold cuts, fruit that could exist dunked into a pumpkin pie dip, fresh made salsa and chips. Desert came in the form of mustache topped cupcakes, and carrot cake.

There was also a beverage bar (somehow I neglected to photograph) where guests could choose from my red sangria, natural and sparkling water as well as fruit infused h2o, and a white grape juice infused with mint.

Decor:

This was actually my second mustache themed infant shower I planned, so it was a snap to put together, every bit I'd already thought upward most of the decor. I made a unproblematic diaper cake using jute twine as ribbon and topped with a few of the cupcake toppers. I made a "Keep At-home" sign by printing information technology out and decoupaging it onto a sheet. [There's a link at the bottom of this post where you tin can download a gratuitous printable of information technology.]

To make the onesies I simply printed out the graphic on atomic number 26 on transferable paper and followed the instructions the paper came with. The banner garland was really easy to make. I cut the shape out past hand and used a mustache shaped hole punch and glued them on following the color pattern you see here, which was a mixture of neutral earth tones, grey, and yellow. You can as well find a pre-made ane like this mustache garland that are super cute.

Games:

We played a few fun action games and other games guests could play equally the wanted to. In a jar I placed a ton of those hole punched mustaches and asked guests to guess how many. On 4×6 cards I printed upwardly a few unlike mustache types and asked guests to guess the proper noun of the 'stache. I also drew a tree on a canvas and had some yellow paint ready for guests to thumbprint in the leaves with yellow paint that would match the baby's nursery. This mustache baby shower was so much fun to throw!

A fun game was Pin The 'Stache On The Infant. I drew the baby face based on an image I Googled and cut out these larger mustaches from a template I made. Guests were and so blindfolded and spun and asked to pin the mustache on the drawing. You could likewise try the game using these cute pushpins.

As a petty nowadays to yous, I'd like to give you the "Name the 'Stache", mustache theme game I used, and the "Proceed Calm And Grown On" sign I made every bit a free printable. They're in PDF course.

Enjoy!
