Decorating can be easy and fun, especially when you have a strong baby shower theme like ‘unicorn’. You can play on lots of different ideas and color pallets from rainbows to soft pastels.

• Unicorn- anything! From paper napkins and plates to photobooth accessories, you’ll be sure to find unicorn-inspired stuff. 
• A unicorn or rainbow pinata - Pinatas are great because they double as an activity. Talk about a win-win.

This décor product might be the most impressive bling at your party!
