Oh Baby!  A gender neutral baby shower...

Paper became a major element in the design of this baby shower. The challenge was that it all had to be gender neutral. The original idea focused on classic paper toys that children can easily make with the any piece of paper and the right amount of imagination... such as paper airplanes and cootie catchers. The paper element ended up spilling over into all aspects of the decor...
... the result was precious!
