Pink and Orange!

A few weeks ago I threw a baby shower for my friend Andie and her baby girl, Agatha Mae. Being a bit of a procrastinator, I didn't start on the decorations until the night before. Thankfully, at 1AM, I noticed that in my zombie-like state I had made a name banner that said "Agatha Eam." Whoops! A little adjusting solved my problem.

The colors were pink and orange. I think this combo is both sweet and sassy at the same time. What I most love is that it has such a retro feel to it... makes me think of Gidget movies and sorbet... Here are a few shots from the shower:

I guess I'm not the only one in love with pink and orange. I've found a number of room and event pictures to inspire.
