Baby Shower for the BEAN!!

I'm a grandma!!! I love every second and I spent most of August getting his room ready. My daughter and hubby moved into a new apartment and I got the chance to create his nursery. Before that I hosted her baby shower. I had so much fun making all the food and decorating. I also made the invitations. It is so nice to have my summers off so I can be super creative. We went with a nautical theme for the shower and the nursery. Here's a few photos of the shower and then the nursery.

Here are the invitations. I had tons of fun making them.

THE FOOD!!!!

My First attempt at cutout cookies and royal icing. They turned out pretty well, a bit of trial and error to get the whole 'flooding' thing down. Mad mini cupcakes with a jelly bean on top since we called him "the Bean"

 When I was deciding what to do with the sand buckets, I thought, turn them upside down and tah-dah, they made perfect pedestals for the food!

 Treat bags for the guests to take home.
