Posh and Pink Safari

Honey cupcake with an elephant topper

The idea for this baby shower sprang out of the success of another one of our events. We created a blue safari shower featuring giraffes for our friend and her baby Josiah last year. This party has gotten so much great attention, and has been a best selling item on our Etsy site, that it quickly became evident that we had to create a sister version. Pink elephants replaced the blue giraffes and we gave it just a touch of glam. We channelled the 80′s classic Troop Beverly Hills for our inspiration. Embracing the wild and taming it just long enough to slap a rhinestone on it.

The dessert table with safari tent and stained backdrop

The dessert table feels like an oasis with its pink canopy net and bold giraffe print tablecloth. The table features a brilliant backdrop we crafted from wood shims. We alternated the shims and stained them gray to give the backdrop some great dimension and texture. It’s very inexpensive and takes less than an hour to put together. Little touches like this really brought the table to life. The safari globe features over 1500 pink rhinestones and the popcorn cones are in a crate filled with what else, but an elephant’s favorite snack, peanuts! Delicious peanut butter cake pops and honey cupcakes are the tasty desserts, but we also feature cheesecake bites with personalized party tags and an array of khaki and pink candies.

    This party is awesome! All the details are perfect. I am especially in love with the backdrop. Just curious what you attached the wooden boards to? I like how they aren’t perfectly placed and look rustic. Thanks!

      Hi Angela!

      Thanks for your nice words! This backdrop is made from a 4×5 piece of plywood as the base and then woodshims were glued onto the backdrop and then a frame was attached around the edges of the plywood board for a finished look. The whole thing was then stained with a gray colored stain. Thanks again!

      Jennifer
