How To Throw A Little Pumpkin Is On The Way Baby Shower
This charming shower theme features pumpkin-themed decorations, delicious autumn-inspired foods, and fun fall games that all revolve around different pumpkin styles for autumn.
How to decorate for a pumpkin baby shower?
Pumpkin Patch Entrance: Create a welcoming entrance with hay bales, pumpkins of various sizes, and a rustic wooden sign that says “Welcome to Lil Pumpkin’s Party Patch.”
Pumpkin Centerpieces: Use small pumpkins as centerpieces, hollowed out and filled with flowers or candles. Add a touch of greenery and fall leaves for a fall themed look.
Pumpkin Garland: String together mini pumpkins, pumpkin lights, or paper cutouts to create a festive garland. Hang it over doorways or across the food table.
Fall-Themed Backdrop Selfie Station: Set up a photo booth area with a fall-themed backdrop, featuring pumpkins, autumn leaves, and a sign that says “A Little Pumpkin is on the Way!”
Or, set up a cozy photo area with hay bales, pumpkins, and a “Thankful” or “Blessed” banner. Provide props like baby onesies, signs, and tiny pumpkins for fun photos.
Light-up Pumpkin Centerpiece: We made this as a pumpkin fairy house, but you could easily use this lighted pumpkin with fresh flowers as a beautiful baby shower centerpiece for fall baby showers.

PRO PARTY TIP: If you don’t want to make a lighted pumpkin, make a pumpkin vase by hollowing out small and medium pumpkins, placing goldfish bowl vases or floral foam in them and them arranging flowers inside the bowls.
Orange and White Color Scheme: Incorporate shades of orange, white, and gold throughout the decor, including tablecloths, balloons, and napkins.
Pumpkin Balloon Arch: Create a stunning archway with balloons in shades of orange, white, and gold. Add faux leaves and small pumpkin balloons.
Pumpkin Candle Holders: Use small, hollowed-out pumpkins as candle holders, placing tea lights inside for pumpkin baby shower decor or table decorations.
Pumpkin Signs: Use pumpkin puns for cute signs all around the party.
Pumpkin-Themed Tableware: Use pumpkin-shaped plates, napkins with pumpkin prints, and orange cutlery to tie the theme together.
