The rustic trend has been dominating wedding themes lately, with as many variations on the nature-based style as there are stars in the sky.
As you know, we love this versatile theme. In fact, we love it so much we decided to apply it to another happy life event: baby showers!

Never has burlap looked so amazingly adorable!
These crafty and creative moms-to-be used simplicity to their advantage. Pinning new onesies to a clothesline makes for a stunning decoration that doubles as a baby-focused bunting with new outfits instead of flags!
Using chalkboard signs is an easy and stylish way to welcome guests, label foods, and direct people to their seats.
This shower can be held indoors or outdoors depending on your preference, and the rough-hewn elements (think log slices, burlap, etc.) take on their own sort of elegance when mixed together in creative ways.
For the perfect balance, layer rougher elements with items that have clean lines. Lay a burlap runner over the top of a crisp ivory tablecloth, or arrange tall pillar candles tied with twine on a log slice in the center of the table.
The best part of this event is that you really don’t need an over-the-top fancy cake display. Sweet and charming, a rustic cake that will delight people with its simplicity before they devour it completely.
