One of my colleagues is becoming a dad at the end of the month. The office is quite good about celebrating these special moments in a person’s life. The theme of the baby shower was nautical (ducks, boats, and fish).
My friend the Baking Barrister made these amazing cookies and I thought I would share them. Our colleague has red hair so she included a patch a red hair on some of the ducks. I thought that was such a sweet and thoughtful touch and I thought I would share a few photos from the event here.
She also made a sailboat cake. The recipe is Martha Stewart. Blue seven minute frosting over chocolate cake.
My pal made some streamers using Made’s Ruffled Streamer Tutorial. All rolled up.
There was also a little rubber duckie corsage for mum-to-be
and of course a little fish bowl centrepiece.
and goldfish crackers, the fifth food group.
It was a sweet event for an excited couple. I enjoy posting about collaborative projects like this and how they come together.
Have a great day,
A fun and whimsical little party - the little white girl cookies with the bow were adorable. I also liked the paper boat on the cake - sometimes the simplest ideas are the best.
