Celebrate your lil\u2019 slugger with a baseball themed baby shower<\/strong>. With a vintage style, we\u2019re showing you how much fun and creative you can be when putting together this theme. From invites to desserts, we\u2019re confident that you\u2019ll be hitting a grand slam in no time!<\/p>\n

Creative Party Decor and Food for a Baseball Baby Shower!<\/h2>\n

\"Ideas<\/p>\n

Start with vintage baseball baby shower invitations<\/strong> like this one, which features a personalization option. The craft paper look of these invites immediately sets the tone for what to expect out of your baby shower theme. When it\u2019s time to check-in at the party, set up a baseball themed vignette as the welcome table<\/strong> complete with a baseball mitt, apothecary jar with peanuts, vintage baseballs, and a personalized welcome message presented in a picture frame. Include a nifty embroidered hoop made to resemble a baseball! Add an advice jar<\/strong> that has been painted with a baseball theme that would allow guests to leave advice cards for the mother-to-be.<\/p>\n

Serve guests iconic baseball food reminiscent of those game days by setting up a hotdog stand bar<\/strong> stacked with condiments and relishes. Add a chalkboard scoreboard for a decorative touch. You may also want to include a self-serve set of side dishes like macaroni salad, sweet potato fries, and coleslaw. Include fun snacks like nachos with cheese, pretzels, and cheese puffs. For an eye-catching display of food, add bright red pennant flags<\/strong> to represent the names of dishes.<\/p>\n

Think creatively when making your table centerpieces<\/strong> like this super easy idea using hurricane glass jars filled with popcorn. Using a faux grass square cutout, decorate the jar with a vintage-inspired band, pennant, foam finger, bubble gum, and baseball. This is a clever idea when your dinner party will be on a long table because you can mimic the look of a baseball field.<\/p>\n

For your drinks and desserts<\/strong>, what would a vintage baseball theme be without serving up classic Coke in bottles! Include pretty blue-stripped straws as a lovely drink accent. Sweet things like homemade Cracker Jack, baseball themed strawberries dipped in white chocolate<\/strong>, and ice cream sandwiches are great options. Finish the dessert table with a beautiful buttercream ruffled cake<\/strong> topped with a cute mini banner for the celebrant!<\/p>\n

Stay tuned! We\u2019re featuring more baseball themed ideas for food, favors, printables, and more!<\/p>\n
