A Baby Shower Party

Happy to share pics of the baby shower party of a close friend that I helped organized.

I commissioned a novice artist to make a caricature of the new parents with the barkada. We only met once and then communicated the details via email. I was a bit disappointed with the output because not of the details I wanted were followed. But then, I should have talked to him face-to-face. Anyway, what's important is that my friends and specially the couple really love the outcome.

For the party decor, my good friend, Ron made cut-outs of baby onesies using colored papers and strung with a regular yarn I had sitting at home.

I made a diaper cake for the first time in an hour with the help of instructional videos. For the finishing touch, I used a pink nursing bib to cover the whole cake and pink ribbons to add the "cuteness" factor hehehe.

For the food, we ordered everything from Ambers Restaurant. As for the dessert, I set-up a chocolate fountain with fruit and non-fruit dips. Finally, I made chocolate and vanilla cupcakes with pink and white frosting.
