Step 1
Think about the theme of the baby shower. If there is no specific theme, think about the colors of the baby shower decorations. The centerpiece that you choose should tie in with the theme of the baby shower or its colors.

Step 2
If you are considering a baby shower centerpiece that is all flowers, ask to take a look at a florist’s portfolio. If you do not see anything in the portfolio that matches the baby shower’s theme or colors, ask the florist to design a unique baby shower centerpiece for you. Florists are very eager to please and it gives them one more picture to add to their portfolios.

Step 3
If you would like to go the extra mile, you can do a totally unique baby shower centerpiece with food and flowers. You may want to consider having a tower of edible blocks that are made out of cake with flowers tucked into the top. If you would like to do something with food and flowers and you do not know where to start, contact a baker.

Step 4
If you decide to not opt for food or flower baby shower centerpieces, consider having a gift basket for the mother-to-be that is packed full of useful baby items that she will need. Make sure the basket’s texture and color matches the baby shower's theme or colors.

Step 5
If you want to do something different than a flower, food or gift basket centerpiece, consider a diaper cake centerpiece. The diapers can be either disposable or cloth. Bind them together to make a tiered cake and decorate the tiers with small baby gifts.

I am hosting a surprise baby shower for my daughter in November. First question: Family and friends are limited in what they can help out with. I will be funding this event. On the invitation: who's name do I put in hosting?
Second: I am looking for unique ideas for the following: Favors, Centerpieces and how to word Save the Date via electronically.
A specific theme was not chosen by my daughter because she doesn't want to know the sex of the baby. Her home is decorated in Old World/Tuscan decor and plans to mimic the nursery as well (vintage, raggety ann & Andy, old booties w/buttons, carriage, very little primimtive (needlepoint nursery w/frame. The nursery colors will be honey yellow, burgandy, green, khaki, not into typical baby blue, pinks, green. My final question...I am hosting a luncheon at a Italian Rest. and decided to make the theme (tuscan/
