Baby Shower Fun...

My beautiful cousin, who also happens to be one of my best friends, is having a baby...YAY!  Today we had her baby shower and I was given the great privilege of helping her with styling.  Working off a white canvas, we combined all of Christy's favourites, to create this stylish, yet simple dessert table.  

With the big surprise yet to be revealed...boy or girl...the combination worked perfectly for either.  And just so no-one got the wrong idea and thought she was having a girl, we hung little green and pink spots on the twigs that read boy or girl.  We used polka dots and stripes and the colours pink & brown...

And green & brown...

And much to my delight, I managed to finish Mr Magoo, the super cute little monkey sitting in the middle of the table.  I whipped him up yesterday afternoon (so typical of me and my grand ideas!) and was delighted to find that he not only made a precious keepsake gift for the nursery but he was the perfect finishing touch to the dessert table...and better stil, Christy loved him!

My favourite elements?  These super cute and super easy marshmallow pops.  I'm sorry I can't credit where I first saw these, but unfortunately I can't access my computer, which had the page bookmarked.  Sadly, my computer was being serviced in the city at a place that was flooded this week in Brisbane's terrible floods...such a small loss compared to so many others!!!!!

And these fun little chocolate nets on top of the mini pavlovas, they really just finished them off!

So much fun!  Thanks to Christy for letting me help, I can't wait to meet your precious little gift when he or she arrives!!!!
