Baby Shower Bug Theme Ideas

Like babies, lady bugs are so cute and make a great theme for decorating a baby's room. They are bright and cheerful to look at, reminding us of gardens and sunny days outdoors. There are lots of ways to incorporate lady bugs into your design for your baby's nursery. Use some of these ideas for a lady bug-themed room design. Incorporate them strategically, with the rest of the room in subdued and pastel colors so the red and black is not overpowering.

Planning a baby shower with a bug theme is an original and cute idea. Ladybugs, dragonflies and butterflies are all themes that would work well for any expectant mother.

Ladybug

Using ladybugs as a theme for a baby shower is a very popular and cute idea. Lady bug party supplies can be found at many retailers, such as Party City, as well as numerous online retailers. While black and red is the traditional color scheme for ladybugs, a more modern idea is to choose pink and brown. A very easy and inexpensive centerpiece idea is to make a diaper cake decorated with the pink and brown ribbons. Also, serve pink punch and make party favors from pink and brown M&Ms.

Dragonfly

Another cute, but not as common theme for a baby shower, is to use dragonflies. You choose any color scheme you prefer and this theme can work for a boy or a girl. If the mother-to-be is having a girl, pink can be the main color. If the mom-to-be is carrying a boy, then blue works beautifully. Many online retailers sell party invitations with dragonflies adorned on them. In addition, it would be very easy to make a diaper cake in the shape of a dragonfly.

Butterfly

A butterfly-themed baby shower has the potential to be very colorful. You can buy party supplies, tableware and decorations with bright, colorful butterfly graphics printed on them or use solid color tableware with butterfly accents. A very easy and inexpensive idea is to make a personalized wall banner covered in butterflies. You could include the due date of the baby and the name if known.
