Hope you are not tired of looking at baby shower pictures because I have more. If you are then just go on to the next blog. Today we are moving on to the food and drinks tables.
Christine fixed a lot of different foods and it was all very good.
I love the way she used a black polka dot fabric on the table and she even had some risers underneath to add different heights to the food display.
The yellow flatware was wrapped in yellow napkins and then she made napkin rings out of ribbon.
All the foods were described on individual tags that she made.
She placed fresh flowers in mason jars and tied monogrammed tags on them.
Bad photography here, but I don't have a do over. This was really good. I would have never thought of eating cheese, nuts and strawberry jam together.
Now on to the drinks table. This was set up on her breakfast table. I just love this large polka dot fabric.
Christine made each one of these labels herself. She just thought of everything!
Look how cute this is on the ice bucket. She found the bees at Michael's.
This lemonade dispenser was so cute.
This was a display on the island. See the sonogram picture?
Linking to Between Naps on the Porch for Tablescape Thursday.
Thanks so much for letting me share these pictures with you.
Y'all come back now,
KIM

Christine did not miss one single detail!! I have decided she is good friends with your daughter because you are all so much alike... cream always rises to the top. =)
ReplyDeleteI love the mason jar glasses!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love all of the details. She must have been planning this party for a long time. I'm sure your daughter felt like the Queen Bee. How lucky she is to have such a thoughtful friend!
ReplyDeleteShe should have her own blog! Water bottle labels...I feel like such an awful hostess. I never thought of such a thing! It really looks like fun.
ReplyDeleteThe shower decor is just beautiful. Lots of fun mixed in with all the pretty displays.
ReplyDeleteThat is soooo darling! I love it-it is fresh and lovely...and not so "cutesy" either-classic really with the black and white. Don't you love those little bees and the water bottles are just over the top. What a wonderful day for your daughter! Hurry up baby!!!! Diana
ReplyDeleteReally, really, cute Kim! What a wonderful baby shower from beginning to end. All the details are wonderful!
ReplyDeletewhat an amazing hostess and friend! She did a beautiful job...wow! I also was eyeing up her picture frame wainscotting-just the look I'm going for in our entry way remodel!!
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous baby shower Kim! I just adore black and yellow together. We have a niece named Reese. Pretty name! :)
ReplyDeleteKim, she really did think of everything. I love the polkadots and the food does look fabulous. The drink table is so cute too. Such a talent and such dedication to perfection. I know your daughter was just thrilled that her friend put in so much thought and effort. Lovely. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteWow! What a festive table setting. I love how she coordinated everything with the bee theme and the black, yellow, pink and white. Sooooo cute!! The bottled waters with Leila's name on them was a unique idea. This is the first time I've gotten to see her sonogram pic! The food looked yummy. It looks like a lot of thought and work went into this darling shower.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful day, what a great friend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! What an awesome baby shower! I will be hosting one in October and would LOVE to have the cheese ring recipe:-) It looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteRachell, I will see if I can get that for you. Give me your email address and I will send it to you.
ReplyDeleteLove all the polka dots. Christine mastered the details. hugs♥olive
ReplyDeleteThe cheese ring recipe is in the cookbook called "Tea Time at the Masters". It is put out by the Junior League of Augusta, Georgia. It's official name is "The Now Famous Cheese Ring". Hope you enjoy.
ReplyDeleteAmazing that she was the only hostess. I sometimes like it that way though, I can do everything I want to do without having to keep all the other hostesses happy. She did an amazing job. Love the flowers in mason jars, just too cute.
ReplyDeleteWow! What a wonderful friend! She really did a fantastic job hosting this shower. It is so cute. I love how she made labels for everything! Very creative!
ReplyDeletelove the yellow and black. what cute ideas for a baby shower. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteKim,
ReplyDeleteI see ya'll had that awesome cheese ring...I make this for tailgate parties and showers and it's always a BIG hit...just gave out the recipe to Mr.CC's boss last week for a party...it's one of favorites! This young girl thought of everything...I see why you have lots of pics...it was all soooo CUTE!!!!
Blessings,
Linda
What a darling shower -- love the colors and the bees. The food looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteI have been waiting for the food! She put so much work into a lovely , memorable shower! It was so cute and yet not babyish, I like that. did you happen to ask her where she got the lemonade dispenser! You could just tell me in part 4.
ReplyDeleteCarol
I know that cheese ring, too! It was one of Roslyn Cartern's favorite Whitehouse recipes ... and I always thought it was funny that she rolled hers in pecans ... and not peanuts! Who could get tired of baby shower pictures? Keep them coming ... these are very special! Great job.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful shower! It looks like a picture out of a magazine! Enjoy this special time! ♥
ReplyDeleteKim, Christine did such a wonderful job with the shower. All the little details made it extra special. xo, Sherry
ReplyDeleteI love the little bee's and the pops of yellow and black. It turned out to be a beautiful shower!
ReplyDeleteSo many cute ideas and the food looks delish! I needed some of that for dinner tonight, since I ate leftovers (still kinda good).
