| Parents to be... Robyn and Andrew Dixon having fun with hats! |
Robyn and Andrew Dixon are not new topics to my blog. Not only are they close friends of mine, they have trusted me to graphically handle lots of milestones in their life! I was there when it all began, and I've designed their wedding, holidays, and now... their baby!
Robyn came to us girls (pictured below) and said she wanted to have a Boy themed Mad Hatter baby shower! Of course we jumped right on it. We decided we since she is having a boy and will soon be outnumbered by boys in her house, we would give her one last girly, elegant party! With China tea pots and cups, fresh floral and many antique glass cruets-- the decor started to come together, as you can see above!
Of course we started with Invitations to set the tone, pictured above. To read the full blog post on the invitations, click here.

| Hostess' and Mom to be getting in the Mad Hatter fun with our unique head pieces!! (L to R) Amy Morelli, Robyn Dixon, Cara Sturla and Amy Baumgarten. Never fear all, the Mommy-to-be is drinking NON-alcoholic wine! |
As you can see, we went all out with the decor. In keeping with the Alice and Wonderland Theme, we created die cut metallic "Eat Me" and "Drink Me" tags. We had Rabbit's, Clocks, and Keys sprinkled throughout the event (a thanks to PLAYGROUND Magazine for their contribution of these things, they were designed by Ayla, you can find them in her Etsy Store!). In addition, pictured above, we created custom candy wrappers for the favors to commemorate the event, as well as Signage, for the menu, gift table, and fun photo station!
We also created a Wishing Tree, where guest could write their wishes for the baby's future, and hang them on the tree. We also did something fun, when guests arrived, we had a "Mad Hat table", pictured below, We here at The 2u Collection had a blast creating these unique headband hats for the guests to wear throughout the day!
