Foxes and Fairy Tales: A Perfect Fall-Themed Baby Shower.
My baby shower was nothing short of perfection. Every single detail reflected my personality so much, and it was just the most beautiful day. It was a party full of all of my favorite people and my favorite things!
The day was all about the little fox on his way! This invitation (which will probably be hanging on my refrigerator forever) could not have been more perfect, and it came with a matching insert that said “Please bring a book instead of a card.” So baby Jack now has pretty good library started with notes from people who love him already. I swoon.
A little secret about these: They are some of the best macaroons I have ever had. They are way better than the ones from Whole Foods. Another secret: They are from Sam’s Club. In the frozen section. You’re welcome.
A friend made that blanket just for Jack! How sweet?!
No baby shower is complete without fairytale elements of some sort! These letters were cut out from storybooks and then covered in glitter. Fairytales and glitter-my favorite things!
I can’t wait to hang this in my apartment! The colors are perfect. Also, that giant stuffed fox…he came home with me, and him and Gatsby have been getting to know each other.
Little foxes and gold pumpkins: More of my favorite things in the world. Obviously, this guy came home with me. Pro tip for throwing a baby shower-if you’re buying decor anyway, buy things the guest of honor will take home and use for her nursery! It was the sweetest gift to be able to take these home and know they will one day decorate my little man’s room!
Instead of a guest book, guests took pictures in front of this backdrop, holding a chalkboard with a message for baby Jack!
If you happen to be wondering the way to my heart, it is not with a bouquet of flowers, it is with a bouquet of forest creatures.
Handmade flowers all over the house…I swoon.
No fall shower is complete without some apple cider!
Book pages like this were hung all over and made into garlands.

This has got to be one of the cutest baby showers EVER!! I love all the little details!! 🙂 So happy for you!
You had shown a few pictures of your baby shower before and I LOVED IT, but now seeing all the cute little details – I'm calling it. THIS WAS THE CUTEST SHOWER EVER. Seriously I am in love. I can't get over it.
This is so, so cute! LOVE the name Jack! That was on my list, but then my SIL married a Jack that their son (one day) will have to be Jack, so we figured that would be too many Jacks running around!
What an amazing theme!! I loooove all the little creatures and mama-to-be looks so happy 🙂
This is like my ideal baby shower. I am OBSESSED with woodland creatures and gold and just all of it! Note to self: show this post to whoever plans my future baby shower. 😉 Haha!
Umm, this is the best shower I've ever seen!! Love the fall vibe, too!

Aw, everything looked so sweet and perfect–so exciting! We're also doing the bring a book instead of a card thing at my shower, and I'm so excited to get our little girl's love of reading started!
SUCH a cute baby shower- so perfect and unique and I just love it all!!! 🙂 I went to a baby shower last weekend where we all brought books instead of cards which I love.
SO cute!!! I love the idea of having a photo booth with a written message instead of a guest book. What a wonderful way to celebrate you and baby Jack.
This is such a sweet theme and the décor is gorgeous! You are absolutely glowing 🙂
WOOOOOOWWW!!! The detail in this shower is unbelievable! So beautiful!
Your shower was amazing, loving all the details and those macaroons look delish!

For Cash's shower, we had the book instead of a card, too. It was the best idea my sister had! Your so sweet with the invitation. I do that, too. I keep up the previous year's birthday party invitation until the next one. It's just something I've always done. It all started with Cash's baby shower invite & has just happened every birthday since.
Foxes AND Fairy tales?! So adorable! My sister in laws threw me a woodland themed baby shower and it is still my favorite. Woodland creatures are just too cute.
