This is a fun party decoration that you can put together for any venue. Use streamers, tulle, foil curtains, a printed backdrop, or even a balloon or flower wall. Add sparkly decorations, string lights, and banners on top to create a stunning scene behind your dessert table or photo area. Or give the parents-to-be the royal treatment and use your sparkly wall as a backdrop for opening their baby shower gifts. 

Princess Castle Centerpiece 

A princess theme wouldn’t be complete without a castle, and this standout centerpiece is sure to dazzle. Attract your guests’ attention as they sit down to toast and enjoy a meal together. A princess castle table decoration makes perfect sense, and it’s easy to create with what you have at home and a few party supplies. Take a look at this DIY princess castle centerpiece to see how it’s done. 

Soft Floral Arrangements

Bring your pink baby shower tables and venue to life with a collection of beautiful fresh floral displays. Opt for soft colors, like pale pinks and whites, in traditional arrangements.
