The Prep Work

Remember I said we were going to discuss this right after we figured out how to remain unrushed the day of the party? … well we are already at that point, so let’s get to it.

I know that in our 8-step guide, you have been prepping for about 10 weeks now, but the few days prior to the baby shower is when you will be doing a great deal of your final prep work.

Final Prep Work basically revolves around two things; your house and your menu.

You will already have the prizes, games, gifts and favors finished, all sitting nicely in boxes or baskets for the big day ... but the decorations and meal can’t be done until the eleventh hour and this can cause a lot of the stress a hostess feels.

To begin with there are a number of things that you will need to do or arrange before you have people over to your house for a shower, and I have looked at each of these in the coming steps.
