Mustache or Bows Gender Reveal Party

I have a darling baby shower to share with you, contributed by Jami of colourherhope.com. I love all the diy elements in it. Mustaches have been the trend in baby showers for the last couple of years. They add such a fun and creative touch to the parties, and this party is no exception.

They chose to go a little nontraditional with the colors and used purple and yellow, a fun combination. Guests were greeted with this adorable yellow chalkboard sign that Jami up-cycled from an old headboard.

As with all gender reveal parties, the fun comes with guessing the gender. Guests either wore a purple bow, to show they thought the baby would be a girl or a yellow mustache, for a boy.

The backdrop was spray painted black so she could write with chalk on it.

It was fun to see how everyone got into the game.


They even took pictures of how everyone guessed.



For decorations, they used tissue pom poms to add a punch of color to the decorations.

It really turned out great!


They also had purple, yellow and black striped paper straws to match the decor.

To share the gender with everyone, everyone bit into the cupcakes to see what color it would reveal.

Gender Reveal Cupcakes:

To make these cute cupcakes, make your favorite cupcake recipe. Scoop half the cupcake batter for each cupcake in a cupcake liner, place a colored candy melt on top of the batter and then cover it with the remaining batter. Then cook the cupcake as normal. When guests bite into it, there will be a surprise color in the middle of the cupcake. Such a fun a cute way to reveal the gender.

Party Trays:

They are actually picture frames Jami picked up at a thrift store for two dollars. She covered the inside with scrapbook paper and painted the frames black to match the party.



They made chocolate mustaches and bows to decorate the cupcakes from candy molds. You can buy some mustache and bow like they used on Amazon.


Thanks so much for sharing your gender reveal party with us Jami! It turned out so creative and fun!
