Are you planning a baby shower and love the vintage look? This sweet vintage baby shower styled by Simply Sienna is full of inspiration. While this shower was actually planned and styled for a mom expecting a little girl, the neutral color palette and sweet vintage touches would also work well for a gender-neutral or boy’s baby shower. We happen to think it would also make for a beautiful christening, baptism, or boy’s first birthday party. The celebration boasts incredible baby shower decorations, including a collection of vintage bird cages, Mason jars, old frames, twine balls, and beautiful baby shower party favors that the guests got to keep!

Celebrating a new life calls for a special kind of gathering. To create this lovely shower, a fabulous mix of vintage pieces was used to produce a classic, sophisticated look. A gray, large, windowpane-style mirror and a fabric-covered backdrop with the cutest framed baby onesie were used as a background for the refreshments. Use mini clothespins and twine to hold the baby onesie in place.

The refreshment table showcased an assortment of glass apothecary jars, a bird cage, and a dessert pedestal that was filled with delightful treats ranging from cookies and donuts to white chocolate-covered pretzels, cupcakes, and candy. White, yellow, and gray, which were the dominant colors in the fabric backdrop, were the neutral color scheme that the sweets all complimented. Don’t forget the darling paper rosettes used to dress up cupcakes and candy jars. The addition of twine, printable labels, and rosettes are special touches that give this baby shower a finished look.

Old books were used as risers to give different parts of the display height while keeping a vintage look. Sweet details like vintage bird décor and bookends added interest to the display. A beautiful old copper tea set was set out on a tray next to a beautiful arrangement of baby’s breath and baby shower favor jars with pretty “thank you” labels on top.

Would you believe that the inspiration for this shower came from the client’s china—a stunning Wedgwood pattern? Each place setting at the dining table featured vintage tea cups and layers of beautiful china. Tissue poms and gray twine balls were hung overhead. Ceiling installations always add interest and help to create a more intimate setting. As a centerpiece, old birdcages, old books, and more twine balls were grouped together in the middle of the table. This tied the decorations on the refreshment table to the decorations on the dining table.

The dining table set up is reminiscent of days long gone when friends once met up for finger sandwiches and tea and to share the latest gossip. More sweet details included bottles of Perrier lined up on a serving tray. Each came embellished with a gray and white striped paper straw and a “drink me” tag tied on with baker’s twine. A beautiful beverage station was established that featured some bubbly for guests to enjoy at this gorgeous baby shower brunch. Dozens of champagne flutes were styled in rows next to a beautiful Mason jar flower arrangement. “Making life a little sweeter” was handwritten on a chalkboard sign—a great sentiment to share with special friends who had gathered to celebrate a sweet baby.
