Owl Themed Baby Shower, Hoooo-Hoooo

Owls and woodland creatures in general are super hot in the baby world (toys, nursery decorating, clothes, etc.).  As a results of several old South Park episodes that feature woodland critters in less than adorable ways, I'm nixing woodland creatures from this post.  The crude association is forever burned in my brain.  Sticking strictly to owls, here are some of my favorite products to help you host a fabulous owl themed baby shower.


INVITATIONS

As always, let's start with the invitations.  There are tons and tons and TONS of owl themed baby shower invitations out there.  And, to be a little blunt, I found most to be uninspired and more of the same.  The two invitations below are unique and well executed.  A hoot above the rest.  Huh.

BluGrass makes the invitation below and is happy to customize it for a baby shower (think: "Look whooo's expecting" or "Look whooo's having a boy!).  For Next Stop - Baby readers, BluGrass is offering a 10% discount with the coupon code nextstop-baby10.  Bonus!

The next invitation is designed and crafted by Designs by Saidi.  The color scheme and wording can be whatever you choose.  Check the Etsy shop (and the matching cupcake toppers below) because Designs by Saidi is offering Next Stop - Baby readers a 10% discount through May 31, 2011 when you mention Next Stop - Baby during your purchase process!

DECORATIONS

I love these owl cake toppers by {the paige spot}.  The aqua and lime green combo is my favorite - it's modern and gender neutral.  But, as you see, the color combo can be anything you want!  Through May 22, 2011, {the paige spot} is offering a 15% discount (not valid on rush orders) with the coupon code: LOVEOWLS

Designs by Saidi also makes these sweet cupcake toppers (see matching invitations above).  The lavender is a nice alternative to pink for a baby girl shower.  Remember to mention Next Stop - Baby and get 10% off your purchase through May 31, 2011!

PARTY FAVORS

These owl lollipops by Five Sisterz come in vanilla (the pink pops below), milk chocolate, white chocolate and peanut butter.  They would make perfect baby shower favors and starting on 4/23/11 they are offering free shipping for their entire Etsy shop!  Take advantage.

This adorable pocket mirror by Paper and Press is another great choice for a baby shower gift because it's a gift that your guests will actually use.  I love the colorful pattern and I LOVE that Paper and Press is GIVING AWAY 2 sets of their pocket mirrors to one luck reader of Next Stop - Baby!  Click HERE to enter.
