Cute Baby Shower Corsage Pins
Making corsages is a fun way to prepare for a baby shower. If the shower you are throwing or going to has a particular color theme you can have your corsages match the theme. Or you could simply go with pink or blue corsages based on the baby’s sex. Another option is to use the mother’s favorite color in the corsages.
Besides the flowers you choose for your baby shower corsages you can also choose special baby shower corsage pins to complete your corsages. Traditionally a corsage pin is simply meant to help fasten a corsage into place; however with the right baby shower corsage pins you can showcase the corsage pin too.
Transforming Your Design
If you are using very simple flowers or only using a single flower in your corsage designs then special baby shower corsage pins can be a great way to elevate the design. Find pins that come with ribbons that match the flowers or the theme of your shower. This will help to dress up the flowers and fill out any spaces in your design.
If the tone of the shower is more fun and silly then look for baby shower corsage pins that have a little baby doll, diaper pin, rattle, or baby bootie attached. These types of baby shower corsage pins are excellent for a relaxed shower where the décor is all about baby supplies. Be sure to check the baby shower invitation to make sure this appropriate.
The baby shower corsage pins you use can be elegant with simple one colored ribbons in pink, blue, or a neutral color. For a simple and elegant corsage stick to baby shower corsage pins that do not have any charms attached so that the design stays clean and uncluttered.
When you are organizing a more relaxed affair the ribbons on your corsage pins can have fun designs printed on them. This is a sweet and cute touch to the corsages and will work well with brightly colored flowers. Avoid using big flowers in white or ivory for this kind of corsage. Instead use daisies, chrysanthemums and other bright colored flowers.
Another idea for baby shower corsage pins is to use actual diaper pins instead of a corsage pin. Again you would use this type of idea for a more casual shower rather than an elegant sit down lunch or tea party. You can buy diaper pins in cute colors that will complement the color of the flowers that you have chosen.
