Today’s “Real Party” feature is a sweet & sophisticated baby shower featuring some amazing culinary treats like Caramelized Tomato Tarte Tatins and a lovely display of Brie with Figs & Honeycomb!
This look would translate nicely for a bridal shower as well – and you can just switch up the colors for a girl or gender-neutral baby shower!
Lots more images + the details for Alison’s baby shower are below – as told by party hostess/sister Debbie!

Pictured at top: Paper flowers made with a brad and strips of paper left over from other decorations were attached to a lolly pop stick with a glue dot; Paper Bunting made from scrapbook paper, double sided tape, + baby doll pegs.
Above: Wire tree (available all over South Africa). We made the decorations by using the left over paper from the bunting (round punch, small punch and ribbon); local wooden board wrapped with blue ribbon for the biscuits; and photo of the guest of honor (as a baby) with her mom under a glass dome next to flowers.
Below: Cupcake toppers (also made from left over paper) were attached to a lolly pop stick with a glue dot:
Custom-made beaded dinosaurs were attached to the wire cupcake stand:
Small decorated bottles filled with baby goods and tin buckets painted white, then scrapped with BABY and BOY:
And now for some culinary treats…starting with pretty arrangements of brie with figs & honeycomb:
Pictured below: Baby Asparagus & Sun Dried Tomato Quiche and Caramelized Tomato Tarte Tartins (full recipes for both available in The Recipe Box).

So chic and simple and elegant and uh, DELICIOUS looking. So nice to see you paid as much attention to the food presentation as the rest of the decor.

Wow! That is all that I can say….
Everything you do has such detail and feeling in it, you can tell it’s something you WANT to do. Well done!!
I am speechless!! Debbie, you have just done it again…….inspired us unto greater and better things! Keep it up!

You are an inspiration to all of us who love craft but never put it into action. It all looked so lovely.
Wow,these are just sooo fabulously chic and modern!
I love the color palette and how it was dispalyed as the theme.
I love this shower! I am planning on right now for my sister-in-law with a similar color theme. Where did you get the paper to make the banner and cupcake topper? I would love to imitate for my event. Thanks
