A Real Baby Shower: A Pea in a Pod

Can you tell I'm excited for Springtime?! Loving this fresh green color palette with splashes of yellow and white. This baby shower was also featured on Amy Atlas - and you can see why. Whitney and Heather (part of the fabulous Whipperberry Chicks) did a fantastic job of styling this dessert table along with creating the main attraction -- THE CAKE! All around Precious!

From Whitney... I’ve been a cake decorator for a couple of years now. I approached the art of caking like I do most things I want to learn about in life, I just started. I made a lot of mistakes. My first few cakes looked like they had boils beneath their fondant skin and I quickly learned that cake mixes make a cake too fluffy to bear the weight of fondant. So I had sagging, pimply cakes. But I didn’t give up! I kept trying new techniques and I eventually got to the point where I started selling my cakes. I loved making cakes, and I felt like I was satiating my creative passion.

Then I was introduced to the world of dessert tables.

I just had to try one to see if it was as fun to create as it was beautiful to look at. I started pouring over dessert tables designed by Amy Atlas, Kim at TomKat Studio, Sharnel at My Life, My Loves, and the list goes on. I found the perfect opportunity by asking my friend if I could throw a baby shower for her. We talked about themes and decided to go with “A Pea in the Pod”. The shower turned out beautifully and I had great help from so many friends. Heather took gorgeous photographs and we all enjoyed a
fabulous evening.
