If you’re throwing a little wildflower baby shower, then check out this list of 35 ideas that will surely inspire you. These ideas include invitations, decorations, activities, foods, and party favors to ensure every aspect of your shower is a wildflower dream.

Invitations:

First impressions are always important, and the first impression anyone will have of your wildflower baby shower will be through the invitation. This makes picking out your invitation an important part of your party planning. Check out these invitations that would fit your theme perfectly.

Decorations:

What is a party without decorations? Backdrops, table cloths, centerpieces, and balloons can all be used to transform your party into a meadow full of wildflowers.

• Little Wildflower Backdrop with Balloon Arch
  Add a Little Wildflower Backdrop and surround it with a Balloon Arch to remind your guests of your wildflower theme. To give this display a professional look, add some wildflowers and greenery among the balloons in your arch. This backdrop is the perfect place to add a rocking chair for the momma-to-be to sit in while she opens all of her presents.
• Baby Carriage Filled with Flowers
  Fill this Wicker Baby Carriage with wildflowers to create a beautiful floral display. Place your carriage at the entrance to your shower, in front of a backdrop, or by the present table.

• Floral Wall
  If you want the perfect spot for your guest to pose in front of, then create a floral wall. You can do this by attaching bundles of wildflowers in a grid-like pattern on a wall or wooden backdrop. Another option is to use real or paper flowers to completely cover up the wall. For a great paper flower wall tutorial, check out this article by Jennifer Maker.
• Onesie and Flower Banner
  Create a custom banner using Colorful Onesies and wildflowers. To make your banner, just attach you onesies and flowers in an alternating pattern to a length of twine using clothespins. Once the party is over, the onesies in this decoration can be added to the gifts for baby. 
• Hanging Flowers
  Add some hanging wildflowers throughout your venue to add a whimsical touch to your shower. To make this decoration, just take a long length of clear fishing cord and tie some flowers through it. Another option is to use a DIY Floating Flower Kit. A great place to hang these flowers would be over your buffet or present table. 

• Little Wildflower Plateware 
  For your tableware, check out this Wildflower Paper Plate Set. This plate set includes two different sized plates, napkins, and cups. If you already have enough flowers at your party, then consider these Scalloped Paper Plates instead. They look just like flowers without adding more patterns to your decorations.
• Petal Confetti
  Turn some of your wildflowers into confetti by pulling apart the petals. You can then spread this petal confetti over your tables to create an easy DIY table decoration. 
• Wildflower Iceballs
  Use a Round Ice Mold to create floral spheres that can be used to cool down your drinks. To make them, just cut the heads off of whatever flowers you want to use, place them in your ice mold, fill the mold with water, and then freeze. To truly customize this decorative drink display, use a Custom Galvanized Drink Tub to store the drinks and iceballs in.
