So I threw a baby shower for my bestie

If there is one thing I like doing, it's throwing a party - the more elaborate party the better.
Much to my husbands disgust, I tend to go over the top.  I can't help it. I look at Pinterest for ideas and this crazy person just pops out.

So in the spirit of research I created a new pin board, but I was sneaky about it. The Mumma-to-be (Jacqui) follows me on Pinterest so I set up a board that we could both pin on. Now for those who don't know Jacqui she is a little obsessed with animal print (and by a little I mean a whole game reserve practically lives at her place) - me, I have a love/hate relationship with it, mostly hate.

So when Jacqui started pinning things in animal print, being the moody cow I am, I said no. Like,

NO. 

Like,  I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU AND IT'S YOUR BABY SHOWER BUT MY HOUSE IS AN AMIMAL PRINT FREE ZONE.  

And yes, shouty caps were necessary.

But I was sneaky...and I set up a secret Pinterest board with all the imaginable zebra print party items a baby shower could ever need and want. It's no longer a secret, so knock yourself out and click the link if you're thinking about a zebra themed anything.

ALL THE THINGS ZEBRA

So all my planning, research, sneaky buying and DIYing all came together a few weeks ago in what I might say myself was a brilliant day. 

   

 

   

  

 

And saving my most favourite pic of the day for last:

What have I done????

My singlets, my beautiful singlets!

After all the work that everyone put in at my baby shower I killed them. They are now just plain white singlets.

I followed the correct manufacturers instructions for washing them but when I went to take them out of the machine all I found was a washing machine full of glitter and some singlets with blobs of paint on them.

I'm devastated to say the least.

So incase I kill the nappies, I just went and took photos of all of them.
