Bunches of Babies: Great Baby Shower Gifts and Decorations

Giving a baby shower? Here's a decoration tip: The Baby Bunch Bouquets. Instead of flower centerpieces on the table, use flower centerpieces on the table that also double as a gift for the mommy-to-be. These Baby Bunch Bouquets are beautiful and practical. Each Large Baby Bunch Bouquet consists of one bib, one t-shirt, two hats, two pairs of socks, one pair of mitts, two burp cloths, one onesie and one romper suit, gathered into a spectacular bouquet of baby clothes encircled with fabric rosebuds and leaves. These bouquets come in pink, yellow, and blue to add a bit of color to the baby shower table-set or room. A great gift for a new mom - all the basics she'll need in distinctive packaging!

Samoa Gold Band Dinnerware | A Simple Way to Celebrate Spring


Most dinnerware patterns I typically think of for my spring table are full of flowers and other busy patterns. This year, I found J.L. Coquet's Samoa Gold Band. The Samoa dinnerware collection is subtle yet embodies the lighthearted feel of spring. Most pieces from this collection have a simple gold band accent. The uniqueness comes from the shape of each plate, bowl, and cup; each piece has a flowing scalloped rim. The tea cup and saucer are the best part of the collection. The cup has a vine-like handle coming off the body which is reminiscent of a buttercup. This cup stands out even more with the gold-banded saucer which are like the surrounding petals.

When looking for spring tableware, dinnerware, and home accessories remember they don't have to be busy and full of flower power; the beauty of spring is also in the shape, color, and feel of goods. To view more beautiful dinnerware by J. L. Coquet available at Sallie home, click here.
