Unique Baby Shower Centerpieces

It isn’t necessary to spend a small fortune on centerpieces for a baby shower. You can make unique homemade centerpieces for far less than you can buy centerpieces, and guests will be highly impressed. The following unique homemade centerpieces are perfect for a baby shower for a baby boy or baby girl. Even if you aren’t artistic or naturally creative, you can make these unique homemade shower centerpieces and you can save a great deal of money over store-bought items of lesser quality.

Clothesline Centerpieces

What could be cuter than a tiny clothesline embellished with newborn baby socks in various pastel colors? If you’re looking for unique ideas, this one is a sure winner. Choose two glass or crystal vases for each centerpiece, and tie a satin ribbon around the top of each, connecting the two. Using small pastel colored clothespins, hang newborn size baby socks across the line. Fill the vases with bouquets of pastel colored carnations, daisies, or any other flowers you prefer. Guests will find these table decorations very unique and extremely adorable.

Baby Bottle Centerpieces

Decorated pastel colored baby bottles filled with candy make very cute baby shower centerpieces, and they can also be used to play a fun and unique shower game. Begin by tying a satin ribbon around each baby bottle for decoration, and count out a specific number of M & M’s, jellybeans, or other small pieces of candy before filling each one. Pour the counted candy into the baby bottles, and make a note regarding the number of pieces of candy each one holds. To complete each of these unique shower centerpieces, attach two or three helium balloons.

When game time begins, have guests at each table guess how many pieces of candy are in the bottle at their particular table. The guests who come the closest to guessing the right number at their table wins a prize, and they can also take home the baby bottle centerpiece filled with candy when the baby shower is over.

Rubber Ducks and Clear Bubble Balloons

Cute rubber ducks make fantastic shower centerpieces, and they’re even cuter and more unique when embellished with clear helium balloons tied to narrow satin ribbons. Purchase a set of rubber ducks including a mama and babies. Attach two or three small helium balloons on narrow satin ribbons to the neck of each mama duck. The clear balloons represent bath bubbles.

In addition to the mama ducks and babies decorate all of the tables in the room with little rubber ducks and fill the corners of the room with additional clear balloons. Duck-shaped confetti on the tables is also a decorative addition. You can also include a small plastic bathtub filled with water and cute yellow rubber ducks. Guests are sure to love these fun and unique shower centerpieces and decorations.

Building Block Centerpieces

Small wooden blocks complete with letters make fantastic centerpieces, and they’re highly unique since each centerpiece can be personalized with words and phrases. Combine blocks to spell out words such as baby girl, baby boy, or the words baby shower along with the name of the guest of honor. Use your creativity and imagination, and stack and glue blocks together for unique baby shower centerpieces unlike anything you could buy from the store.
