The website is desireempire.com. Then I started searching for navy and white placemats. The only ones I found even close were $15 each. Amazon had some blue and white gingham cloth placemats (12 on a roll). Because the future grandmama is teaching all day, and it is an evening baby shower, I thought that we should use bamboo trays. My two BFF's and I have 24 of these combined. So I made up striped paper ones for the trays.
When we put the napkins, origami boats, and glasses on them, we are pretty close.
I saw another pin where the hostess used empty cans. She put her own scrapbook paper on them with spray mount. Then she loaded in a bottle of water, napkin, and plastic silverware. But...that's a LOT of cans to save for this party which is in only two weeks.
I found this pin on Pinterest. See her blog above for directions. I am not going to do the wooden numbers. I am going to make the cardboard shape and fill it with diapers. I haven't figured out yet how to make the sails of baby clothes, but I will. Then I found the following sailer to ride in the boat:
He's a Boyd's Bear. I found him at Custom Creations and Design, Inc.
I would like to start saving the Starbucks coffee drink bottles. I found a pin that shows you have to soak the labels off of them. Then I'd like to hang a life preserver from each bottle. Below is a jpg for you of a sailboat to use on your invites, etc.
