Baby shower invitations representing both parents are difficult to find but these affectionate penguins add a charming touch to the invitation design.

 Winter Snowflake

This elegant and classy Winter Snowflake invitation is perfect for anyone throwing a baby shower this winter. The pretty blue snowflakes decorating the long edges of the invitation stand out against a white background and give the design a magical look.

The border of white flowers decorating the edges of the card against a light blue background adds a light and feminine touch. If you prefer a more striking design, then simply change the border and background colors to suit your taste or to match the color theme of your baby shower.

The stunning flowers arrangements, along with the elegant reindeer ornaments, blue confetti balloons, faux snow and beautiful set tables will make the whole occasion one to remember.

This Winter Snowflake themed table adorned with polar bear and reindeer ornaments, pine cones and snowflakes will bring that magical Christmas feel to your shower. Continue the color scheme of silver, white and pastel pink into the food, add a lot of glitz to your table, and you will have a gorgeous baby shower table guaranteed to impress your guests. 

Let It Snow

If you want a table which is sure to bring a smile to everyone’s face then you won’t go wrong with this lovely Let It Snow baby shower table. The color scheme of cool green, white, silver, icy blue and bluish purple gives the display a glacial feel. Snowflakes, polar bears, elaborate candlesticks and snowmen complete the look. Cakes and candies are decorated to match the color scheme and a beautiful tiered cake takes center stage. This is truly a table that any expectant parent would be proud of.

White Christmas 

Thoughts of a White Christmas conjures up images of blankets of snow covering everything and this White Christmas baby shower idea is the perfect embodiment of this. It is also ideal if the baby’s gender is not known or the parents prefer a gender neutral color scheme. Decoration is simple, everything is white including napkins, tablecloths, balloons, ribbons, and flowers. The color scheme continues into the food with white chocolates, fondant cakes, marshmallows and marzipan. The overall look is crisp, translucent and beautifully ethereal.

A Pajama Party 

For a very different idea for a baby shower how about a Pajama Party? Choose your color scheme and your favorite winter theme. To take the stress out of the party, why not ask guests to come in their pajamas, many heavily pregnant mums-to-be will appreciate not having to get dressed up or alternatively ask people to bring gifts of winter themed baby onesies and pajamas. Whatever you decide, your baby shower is going to be one to remember. 

Christmas Candyland 

We had to include this fun Christmas Candyland  idea on our list. Easily adaptable to make it suitable for a baby shower, all you need are some gingerbread boys or girls and lots of candy canes. Although striking you don’t have to stick to a red and white theme, candy canes come in all colors, just change your decorations to match. Mix in some baby shower ideas from the other items on this list and add some fake snow and there you have it, a Christmas Candyland baby shower.

Woodland 

A winter themed baby shower does not always have to include polar bears and snowmen, for a great alternative, create your own Woodland display. The use of holly and mistletoe to decorate the table adds that festive Christmas touch. The woodland animal cookies are an inspired choice and along with the rustic pickle jars and wooden platters and stands you will be forgiven for thinking that you have been transported to a woodland cabin.

Pretty in Pink

For a magical baby shower host a Pretty in Pink party for your friends. Don’t stick to block pink but add accents of gold rose, silver, and mauve to complement but lighten the overall effect. Make sure that your color scheme continues with your decorations, flowers, and tablecloths. To add the wintery feel, invest in some pink colored christmas trees and ferns. Add tall candlesticks to the tables for height and a touch of elegance. 

Santa “Baby” Shower

Your baby is a gift so why not host a Santa “Baby” Shower. Celebrate in all things green, red and white. Decorate your tables with white tablecloths, long stem red roses, pine cones, holly wreaths, and red floral centerpieces. To get into the festive spirit, put up some Christmas trees and make your guests feel special by adding a candy cane and sprig of winter flowers to each place setting.

Sparkly Winter Baby Shower

Have you ever wanted to step through a wardrobe into another world, well now you can with this Sparkly Winter Baby Shower. The main colors of silver and white give this baby shower a wintry look with the purples and gold hints adding warmth. Create your own enchanted wood by spraying bare twigs with sparkly snow spray and hanging up silver fairy lights. Hold your event late in the late afternoon and experience the full effect of your magical baby shower.

Winter Bears Baby Shower 

For all the animal lovers out there, this Winter Bears Baby Shower is for them. The color scheme of blue and white creates a wonderful arctic setting for the polar bears. A blue and white two-tiered cake is the focal point of the display. The polar bear cake topper looks like he is standing on a floating piece of ice as do the two bears perched on the tall cake stands. With the white roses, candlesticks, cookies and bear ornaments, this display table is a lovely work of art. 

Winter Baby Shower Food Idea

Candy apples

Turn a fall favorite into candy apples fit for any wintery themed baby shower. Add pink food coloring to the melted white chocolate to get the perfect look. Decorate with a bow and edible silver and pink snowflakes. Place them on your baby shower table and wow your guests with your ingenuity. Add different food colorings to suit your own color scheme. 

Cinnamon rolls

There is nothing as mouth watering as eating fresh baked Cinnamon rolls. Yes, we know that all that fat and sugar isn’t great for you but once in a while it is good to indulge yourself and what better time and place than at a baby shower. Serve with steaming cups of specialty coffees for a great treat. Ideal for an informal baby shower such as the woodland or the pajama party theme.

A Tree Of Powdered Snowball Doughnuts

Want to impress your guests, then present them with this towering tree covered in powdered snowball doughnuts. The tree itself is simple to make, just use a craft cone and attach the doughnuts with toothpicks. The best part is that this doughnut tree will fit in perfectly with any winter baby shower theme and of course with the popularity of doughnuts, it is very likely that by the end of the shower your tree will have been picked bare!

Snowman Boy

A Snowman Boy cake is great as table decoration for a baby shower but I would strongly advise anyone against trying to eat it. Made from three levels of diapers that are tiered to look like a cake, each section is wrapped in white paper and fastened with a blue bow and silver pin to represent the buttons on a snowman’s coat. Twigs are used for the arms and a snowman’s head complete with blue and white scarf to finish off his look. This cute table decoration will become the talking point of the shower.

Snowman Girl

Formed exactly the same as the Snowman Boy cake in the list, the only difference is in the color scheme. Instead of blue, the ribbons, scarf and hat are pink. A Snowman Girl is a wonderful and practical gift for the parents-to-be. Not only are diapers always needed but the scarf is made out of a receiving blanket and the hat is perfect for a little head. A great centerpiece and full of hidden gifts. What more could anyone want?

Hot Chocolate-in-a-Bottle Party Favors

Tired of all those usual drinks at a baby shower then release your inner baby with these fun hot chocolate-in-a-bottle party favors. Get some glass baby bottles and fill them with a bottom layer of hot chocolate, a second layer of chocolate chips and a third layer of marshmallows. Print baby shower labels and attach them to the bottles. Watch everyone try to drink from the bottles without laughing. These party favors are guaranteed to liven up any baby shower.

Snowy Cake Pops

For a pretty and stylish dessert which all your guests will love, how about some Snowy Cake Pops. These cake pops are easy to make, simply crumble up a sponge cake and mix with frosting. Roll into balls and coat with white chocolate. Decorate with edible snowflakes cut out from sugar sheets or buy ready-made. Served in a dish filled with fake snow, these snowy cake pops will be a hit with everyone, young and young at heart.
