I am excited to welcome Chris from Postcards and Pretties as a guest blogger today! Postcards and Pretties is dedicated to providing daily wedding inspiration and the inspiration boards are not to miss! They are usually seasonally-inspired and always gorgeous.
As told by Chris:
Hi… I’m Chris from Postcards and Pretties and I’m so excited to be a guest on Eat Drink Pretty.
You are probably looking at the board and think..what? Why are there baby details sprinkled in? Well, I wanted to challenge myself and create my first baby shower inspiration board. Who says they are just for weddings?
I envisioned a soft Parisian Market theme in a delicate color palette. No outdoor market is complete without a scale, fresh flowers and adorable trinkets. Hang vintage house numbers with a ribbon to mark your tables and create charming centerpieces with distressed dresser drawers filled with fragrant blooms.
And, you can’t forget the classic French treats like buttery madeleines and decadent macarons for the dessert buffet. Not a fan of dessert buffets..no problem, package up those yummy treats in a basket lined with a pretty handkerchief and wrap with twine for a delicious guest favor.

Thanks so much for these stunning ideas, Chris! Now I just need a girlfriend to get pregnant with a baby girl so I can execute this exact shower! These details would also be perfect for a little girl’s birthday or a bridal shower.
I love it! Everything is so pretty!
