Select fresh and innovative theme and go for excellent colorful baby shower confetti for this purpose. Baby shower parties are planned after considering health condition of expectant mothers.

There are several other choices for this purpose. You may choose the themes ranging from babies, angels, animals, storks and cartoon characters.

You shouldn't panic and must remain cool in case number of guests increase. Rent a bigger venue if your house is not spacious and can't adjust all guests. You shouldn't bother about an extra expenditure incurred due to renting of venue. Think otherwise and observe how you are benefited indirectly. Your guests offer best suggestions and guidelines to you. In the meanwhile received gifts which you and your baby use later are valuable. More guests mean more fruitful ideas. Decorate party venue with solid color party supplies and don't bother how the entire stuff fits. You already have enough space so adjust baby shower confetti and make the occasion memorable.

Sending out the invitations should be done around a month before the set date for the baby shower, to give all your invited people time to prepare and arrange their schedules. You could indicate on your invitation your theme, costumes if needed, and preferred type of gift, if you would more appreciate a monetary one, or things for your baby so you won't need to buy anymore. The invitation card should at least match your solid color party supplies, and your theme. You can personalize your card and make it into a unique shape like baby bottles, animals, pacifiers, bibs, and whatever your mind can think of.

Make this game more competitive by issuing letter at the very start of a game and remain stick to rules. Pin the pacifier follows exact rule as pin the donkey, only you pin a pacifier into a drawn baby's mouth. Make your baby shower confetti whenever someone wins in these games.
