Welcoming Laila!

Well I am getting ready for my baby shower, and I want to spend as little money as possible because I'm cheap  frugal. We really don't have a lot of money right now so I have no choice but to do the lavish look for less.  My budget for this baby shower is $150.  I have a lot of family members helping out so I should be able to stay way under budget, hopefully.  My Aunt is paying for the food, and my cousin is chipping in on the desserts!  Wasn't that sweet of them.  Here are some ideas I was thinking of for the baby shower.


Idea #1-Pickle Jars
Save pickle jars, salsa jars, or any other types of jars and use them as vases.  I could put fresh flowers in them on the day of the baby shower.  That way I wouldn't really be paying for vases.  Sort of like on the Winthrop Chronicles.
 Idea #2-Paper Pom Poms
Make paper pom poms.  This shouldn't cost too much money.  Like here on the Sweetest Occasion.
 Idea #3- Free Printables
I don't have the software I need on my computer yet to make my invitations so I went to On to baby's website and made a couple of invitations, and I also went to Gaddie Tood and downloaded this super cute banner.

Idea #4-Wreath
I want to make a baby shower wreath for my door.  Like A Blissful Nest did on her blog!

Well if you have any ideas for my pink baby shower, please let me know.  I am open to all ideas!
