Peter Rabbit is a firm favourite when decorating a child’s nursery; and the popularity keeps growing. I have seen a huge interest in Peter Rabbit themed baby showers, christenings and first birthday parties recently…
I hosted an adorable Peter Rabbit themed baby shower and created my very own Mr McGregor’s garden. I created the garden by using a large wishing tree – where I asked guests to write their well wishes for the baby onto tags, and hang them onto branches.
I completed the overall look by adding a plant pots, watering cans, foliage and of course a Peter Rabbit scarecrow prop that I am going to show you how to create today! It was a perfect way to provide lasting memories and link into the Peter Rabbit theme. You can check the baby shower out here.
