Cute Woodland Baby Shower Ideas For Any Budget
The woodland baby shower theme is awesome! Why? It’s cute, it’s neutral, and it’s so easy to set up. There is also so much you can do in terms of decor!
What’s also great is that the woodland baby shower theme is not limited to any budget. If you have an unlimited budget – great! You can have a spectacular woodland baby shower. If you don’t, you can absolutely pull off a fabulous woodland theme baby shower with items you can buy from your local Dollar store, or stuff you can get out of nature (like acorns, twigs, wood slabs, etc.) The whole idea is to bring the outdoors in.
Another reason why this theme is so popular, is because it’s versatile. Mom-to-be can use woodland baby shower decor to decorate the nursery too!
For your convenience, this post has been broken down into the important categories of baby shower planning. You will find great ideas for Woodland baby shower themed cakes, decor, food, favors, drinks and diaper cakes.

Here are the best ones but as you will see – you can be as simple or as elaborate as you want to be. You could take a simple cake, place it on a wood slab and surround it with a few acorns and/or woodland creatures, and you have a woodland themed cake!

Woodland Baby Shower Decorations
What stands out about the woodland theme is that it’s simple yet elegant. You really don’t need much to make this theme pop, in a big way.
Browns and greens and natural things are very dominant in the woodland theme. But certainly, don’t feel limited by this.
A friendly warning: If you are bringing logs into your home, do keep in mind that wood is a natural material. That means, it can have bugs and critters on it. Try to make every effort to ensure it’s clean.
