The theme for my sister's baby boy shower was bow ties with turquoise and gray colors. This "How to Tie a Bow Tie: A Gentleman's Guide" sign was perfect for our shower favor table.

The menu included:
Stuffed mushrooms (a request of the mommy-to-be)
Asian Spinach Chicken Salad
Mini pumpkin pies
assorted cookie and brownie treats (brought by my sister's best friend)
apples and caramel dip
Chili's chips and salsa (a Shumway family party staple!)
The adorable bow tie cookies my sister's best friend brought!
The Lime Slush punch decorated with a big bow tie
Mini homemade pumpkin pies (my Grandmother's pie recipe).
My sister had pie at her wedding instead of wedding cake,
so it was appropriate that we had pie, instead of cake, at her baby shower too!
Cute fabric bow ties made by my other sister, Natalie.
The giant tissue bow ties hanging from the chandelier were SO easy to make and made such an impact! They are made similar to tissue pom poms but you just don't fluff them as much.
The favor table - we made Chocolate Chex Caramel Crunch Mix (a huge favorite!) and packaged in cellophane bags with satin ribbon. The tassel garlands were made by my sister's best friend.
