Baby showers are a way to celebrate the expected arrival of a newborn. Once you choose a theme for the shower, you can begin to work on the decorations. Centerpieces are the focal point of the tables where your guests will sit, so you want to make them interesting and eye-catching. Instead of spending a lot of money on baby shower centerpieces, you can make your own at home and save money. Does this Spark an idea?

Balloon Weight Centerpiece
4. Purchase a balloon weight that matches the theme colors of the baby shower. You can find these at most party supply stores.
