Pink & Brown Baby Shower For Mrs. M

I am so proud of myself!! This was the best baby shower ever! I totally rocked the decorations & food, I improved on my "hosting" skills, almost THIRTY people attended and Mrs. M was blessed with a lot of gifts.

So after bashing on how much I dislike burlap . ..  here I am using it again! LOL  I really like the dark brown burlap and the texture it created. The burlap is growin' on me.  {And I am workin' on another Christmas burlap banner too!}

 I wanted all of the food to be pink and brown.  I went with pretzels ( chocolate dipped and undipped), chocolate chip cookies, chocolate covered strawberries, strawberry granola parfaits and the ever popular cupcake; as well as, a mini dish of chocolates.  The sweets must have been pretty tasty because it was all gone by the end of the shower.

 
 My favorite sweet was the marshmallow pops that I covered with chocolate.  Oh this was so easy and cheap too! I could have made a million of these.
