Star Wars Themed Baby Shower

When one of your best friends, who is also a Star Wars enthusiast, gets pregnant, you throw her a Star Wars themed baby shower. More specifically, Baby-8 Awakens!

  • I designed the invitations and used that BB-8 illustration to have decals printed for the milk jars and labels for the cotton candy.
  • I spray painted a galaxy design on fabric and cut that for pennants and table runners.
  • I poured concrete into ice molds to create miniature Death Star vases.
  • All the food was vegan (except for a carnivore version of the sandwich rolls) and made from scratch.

  • vegan white bones sprinkles (I used Wilton skulls & bones) or any white rectangular candy
Instructions
  1. Add the butter, sugar, milk, and cocoa powder in a saucepan.
  2. Bring to a rolling boil, and boil for 1 minute.
  3. Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla, and oats and drop onto parchment paper paper.

  7. Grrrwaaaaaarggggh! (Wookiee for voilà)
