To kick start our series on real (easy! affordable! beautiful! unique! and fun!) baby showers, we wanted to show off one trend that is picking up serious speed these days: a neutral gender surprise party! Instead of sticking to traditional neutrals, yellows and browns, this mom-to-be and her guests kept things interesting with white, black and celery green shower details. Take a look for yourself:

Ohhh, these hanging black and white balloon hangy-things (for lack of a better terms) are so cool. I would use this outside of a baby shower too!
