So your best friend just announced she’s expecting, or maybe you’re the one with the growing bump—either way, congratulations!
Now comes the fun part: planning a baby shower that feels special, Instagram-worthy, and totally stress-free. And can we talk about sage green for a second? This color is absolutely having a moment right now, and honestly, I’m here for it.
I’ve been to way too many baby showers where everything’s either screaming pink or drowning in blue, and while there’s nothing wrong with that, sage green brings this gorgeous, calming vibe that works for any gender reveal situation.
Plus, it photographs like a dream! Whether you’re team “surprise” or you already know you’re welcoming a little boy or girl, sage green is that perfect neutral that somehow manages to feel elegant, modern, and nature-inspired all at once.
Trust me, I recently helped plan a sage green shower for my cousin, and guests were still talking about it months later. The best part? You don’t need a massive budget or a Pinterest-perfect crafting skill set to pull this off. Ready to create something beautiful? Let’s get into these ideas!
Eucalyptus and Sage Balloon Garland
Image Prompt: A stunning organic balloon garland featuring various shades of sage green, eucalyptus, cream, and white balloons in different sizes. The garland drapes elegantly across a dessert table backdrop, interwoven with fresh eucalyptus sprigs and greenery. Small gold accents peek through the arrangement. Natural afternoon light streams in from the side, creating a soft, dreamy atmosphere. The setup feels modern yet organic, with balloons clustered asymmetrically for a designer look.
There’s something magical about a well-done balloon garland that instantly transforms any space from “meh” to “magazine-worthy.” And honestly? They’re easier to create than you’d think (shh, don’t tell your guests that!).
How to Do It
• Grab your supplies: You’ll need sage green balloons in at least three different shades (light sage, medium, and darker eucalyptus green), plus white and cream balloons for balance. Pick up a balloon garland strip from any party store—it’s a plastic strip with holes that makes assembly ridiculously simple.
• Inflate balloons in various sizes: Use different balloon sizes (5-inch, 11-inch, and 16-inch) to create that organic, professional look. No need to stress about perfection here—irregularity is actually the goal!
• Thread balloons through the garland strip: Start with your larger balloons as your base, then fill in gaps with medium and small ones. This takes about 45 minutes to an hour, perfect for a Netflix-and-craft session.
• Add fresh eucalyptus: Once your balloon garland is assembled, tuck real or faux eucalyptus stems between balloons using floral wire or just wedging them in. This step takes it from “nice” to “absolutely stunning.”
• Budget tip: Real eucalyptus from Trader Joe’s costs around $3-4 per bunch, or grab faux stems from dollar stores if you’re planning ahead. Total cost for a 6-foot garland? Around $25-35.
Pro tip: Make this the day before and store it away from direct sunlight. Balloons last longer than you think, and you’ll thank yourself for not rushing on shower day!
Sage Green Floral Centerpieces with White Accents
Image Prompt: An elegant table centerpiece arrangement featuring sage green hydrangeas, white roses, and baby’s breath in a rustic wooden box planter. Small votive candles in clear glass holders surround the flowers. Soft greenery trails naturally from the arrangement. The table setting includes cream-colored linens, sage green napkins, and simple white plates. Gentle window light creates soft shadows, giving the whole scene a romantic, garden-party feel.
I’m obsessed with how fresh flowers can completely change the energy of a room. For my cousin’s shower, we went with simple arrangements, and people couldn’t stop taking photos!
How to Do It
• Choose your vessel: Wooden boxes, white ceramic vases, or even mason jars work beautifully. I found rustic wooden planters at Michaels for $8 each during a sale.
• Select complementary flowers: Pair sage green hydrangeas or chrysanthemums with white roses, cream-colored lisianthus, and plenty of eucalyptus. Don’t forget baby’s breath—it’s budget-friendly and adds that dreamy, romantic touch.
• Create height variation: Use 3-5 arrangements of different heights across your tables. Mix tall centerpieces with low, sprawling ones to keep things visually interesting.
• Add candles for warmth: Scatter small votives or tea lights around your floral arrangements. The flickering light during an evening shower? Chef’s kiss.
• Budget-conscious alternative: Hit up your local grocery store’s floral section two days before the shower. You can create stunning arrangements for $15-20 each, versus $50+ from a florist.
Time estimate: Each arrangement takes about 15-20 minutes to assemble. Enlist a friend, pour some wine, and make it a fun pre-party activity!

Sage Green Macramé Backdrop
Image Prompt: A large handmade macramé wall hanging in natural cream-colored cord serves as the backdrop for a gift table. Sage green fabric drapes gracefully on either side of the macramé piece. Small potted succulents and sage green lanterns sit on the table below. A wooden “Baby [Name]” sign hangs at the center. Soft, diffused lighting creates gentle texture in the macramé knots. The overall vibe is boho-chic meets modern elegance.
Okay, hear me out on this one—macramé might sound intimidating, but you can actually buy pre-made pieces that look incredible! And if you are crafty, making one yourself becomes this gorgeous keepsake for the nursery later.
How to Do It
• Purchase or DIY: Find large macramé wall hangings on Etsy ($40-80) or Amazon ($30-50). If you’re feeling ambitious, YouTube tutorials make it surprisingly doable for beginners (budget about 8-10 hours for a large piece).
• Create depth with fabric: Drape sage green chiffon or cotton fabric on either side of your macramé to frame it. Use removable command hooks so you’re not putting holes in walls.
• Add dimensional elements: Place a wooden bench or small table beneath your backdrop for gifts, then add texture with potted plants, lanterns, or vintage books.
• Lighting matters: String some warm fairy lights behind the macramé for an ethereal glow, especially if your shower extends into evening. This creates amazing photo opportunities!
• Alternative approach: No wall space? Create a freestanding backdrop using a wooden frame (like a wedding arch) and hang your macramé from that. You can rent these or build one with PVC pipe for under $30.
Reality check: This is definitely a statement piece that takes effort, but the “wow” factor when guests walk in? Totally worth it. Plus, you’re creating nursery décor—win-win!
Sage and Gold Table Settings
Image Prompt: An overhead flat-lay shot of an elegant place setting on a white tablecloth. Features a sage green dinner plate layered with a white salad plate, topped with a rolled sage green napkin tied with twine and a sprig of eucalyptus. Gold flatware gleams beside the plate. A small personalized place card with gold calligraphy rests against the napkin. Scattered around are gold confetti pieces and small white flowers. Natural lighting creates a fresh, upscale ambiance.
Want to make your guests feel extra fancy without spending a fortune? It’s all in the details, friend! When people sit down to a beautifully set table, they immediately feel special—and isn’t that the whole point?
How to Do It
• Layer your plates: Start with a white or cream charger plate (rent these for $1-2 each if you don’t own them), add a sage green dinner plate, then top with a smaller white plate. This layering creates instant elegance.
• Napkin game on point: Fold sage green cloth napkins (buy in bulk online for about $1-2 each) or use high-quality paper napkins. Roll them and tie with natural twine, tucking in a eucalyptus sprig or small dried flower.
• Go for gold accents: Gold plastic flatware looks surprisingly upscale and costs around $15-20 for 50 sets. Add gold-rimmed glasses or gold confetti scattered across the table.
• Personalize place cards: Print names in a pretty gold font on cream cardstock. This takes maybe 20 minutes total and makes guests feel like VIPs.
• Mix and match smartly: Don’t stress about everything matching perfectly. Combining rentals, borrowed items, and a few purchased pieces creates an collected, intentional look.
Budget breakdown: For 30 guests, expect to spend around $60-80 if you’re strategic about what you buy versus rent or borrow. And BTW, those sage napkins? Future kitchen upgrades!
“Oh Baby” Sage Green Signage
Image Prompt: A beautifully designed welcome sign at the entrance featuring “Oh Baby!” in flowing gold script on a white board, decorated with painted sage green leaves in the corners. The sign sits on a rustic wooden easel next to the door. A potted eucalyptus plant and a small basket for gifts frame the sign. Soft natural daylight illuminates the setup, creating welcoming shadows. The sign’s style blends modern calligraphy with organic botanical elements.
First impressions matter! When guests arrive and see thoughtful signage, it immediately sets the tone for how special this celebration is going to be.
How to Do It
• Create or order your sign: Use a foam board from the dollar store ($1) and either hand-letter it yourself, use vinyl letter stickers, or print and mod-podge your design. Alternatively, Etsy shops sell custom signs for $20-40.
• Design with purpose: Include essential info like “Oh Baby!”, the parents’ names, or shower hashtag. Keep text readable from several feet away—this isn’t the place for tiny fonts.
• Add botanical touches: Paint or print sage green leaves, eucalyptus branches, or simple botanical line drawings around your text. Even basic designs look sophisticated with this color palette.
• Display strategically: Place your welcome sign on an easel at the entrance, near the gift table, or behind the dessert spread. Multiple smaller signs create cohesion throughout your space.
• Extra signs to consider: “Baby Sprinkle,” “Sip and See,” “Welcome Baby [Name],” or directional signs pointing to different activity stations. These help guests navigate and add to your cohesive theme.
Time-saver: Canva has gorgeous free templates you can customize in 10 minutes, then print at Staples for under $10. No artistic skills required!

Botanical Baby Shower Cake
Image Prompt: A stunning two-tier baby shower cake featuring smooth white buttercream frosting decorated with hand-painted sage green leaves and delicate gold leaf accents. Fresh eucalyptus and white roses cascade down one side of the cake. A simple “Baby” cake topper in natural wood sits on top. The cake stands on a white pedestal against a soft sage green backdrop. Side lighting emphasizes the cake’s texture and elegant botanical details. The overall effect is modern, organic, and sophisticated.
Let’s be real—the cake is often the centerpiece everyone remembers! And with sage green as your theme, you’ve got so many gorgeous options that’ll make your baker (or you!) smile.
How to Do It
• Choose your design direction: Go for painted botanical elements directly on white fondant or buttercream, or opt for sage green ombre layers that fade from white to deeper green. Both look incredible!
• Add textural elements: Fresh flowers, edible gold leaf, or simple greenery like eucalyptus make stunning toppers. Just FYI, make sure flowers are pesticide-free if placing directly on cake.
• Size appropriately: For 30-40 guests, a two-tier 8″ and 6″ cake works perfectly. For smaller gatherings (15-20), a single-tier 10″ cake with decorated cupcakes as backup saves money.
• Communicate your vision: Show your baker photos of exactly what you want. I learned this the hard way when “sage green” meant completely different shades to me and my baker!
• Budget options: Local grocery store bakeries can do beautiful custom work for $50-80, while specialty bakeries might charge $150-300. Alternatively, order a simple cake and decorate it yourself with fresh flowers for under $40 total.
Pro tip: Schedule your cake pickup for the morning of your shower, and have someone designated to set it up so you’re not stressing. Also? Nobody actually cares if the cake is perfectly level—they just want it to taste good!
Sage Green and Cream Baby Onesie Decoration Station
Image Prompt: A charming DIY activity station set up on a small table covered with a cream tablecloth. Displays multiple plain white onesies hanging on a miniature clothesline with tiny wooden clothespins. Below the line, organized containers hold sage green fabric markers, stamps, stencils, and iron-on letters. A sample decorated onesie shows “Little One” in sage green with small leaf designs. Small instruction cards guide guests. Natural lighting from nearby windows creates an inviting, creative atmosphere.
Want an activity that’s actually fun AND creates something useful? This decorating station keeps guests entertained and gives the parents-to-be an adorable wardrobe for their little one!
How to Do It
• Stock your supplies: Purchase a pack of white cotton onesies in various sizes ($10-15 for 5-pack), fabric markers in sage green and complementary colors, letter stencils, and simple stamps.
• Set up your station: String a small clothesline with clothespins for displaying finished creations. Use baskets or small containers to organize markers, stamps, and stencils so everything’s accessible.
• Provide inspiration: Create 2-3 sample onesies beforehand showing different styles—some with quotes (“Little But Fierce”), some with simple designs (leaves, hearts), and some with the baby’s name if known.
• Make instructions clear: Place a small sign explaining the activity and any important notes (like “Let dry 10 minutes before hanging” or “Avoid washing for 48 hours”).
• Include size variety: Get onesies in newborn, 3-month, 6-month, and 12-month sizes. Babies grow FAST, and having different sizes means they’ll actually get use from everyone’s creations.
Reality check: This works best for smaller showers (15-25 people) where guests have time to get creative. For larger groups, consider making it optional rather than required. Total cost: around $30-40 for everything.
Sage Green Baby Shower Favors
Image Prompt: A collection of elegant baby shower favors arranged on a white tray. Each favor features a small sage green organza bag tied with cream ribbon and a personalized tag reading “Thanks for celebrating with us!” Contents visible through the sheer fabric include honey jars, bath salts, or seed packets. Scattered eucalyptus leaves and small white flowers decorate around the favors. Soft window light creates a gentle, gift-like presentation. The favors look handmade and thoughtful without being overly elaborate.
Here’s my unpopular opinion: you don’t need favors at a baby shower. But if you want to send guests home with a little something, make it meaningful and useful—not just dust collectors!
How to Do It
• Choose practical favors: Mini succulents in sage green pots ($2-3 each), local honey jars with sage green labels ($2-4 each), bath salts in glass jars ($1-2 per jar), or seed packets for an herb garden (50 cents each).
• Package beautifully: Use sage green organza bags, small kraft paper bags stamped with leaves, or clear containers tied with sage green ribbon. The packaging often costs more than the favor itself!
• Add personalization: Create tags that say “Thank you for celebrating,” “Love grows here,” or “From our shower to yours” with the date and parents’ names. Print these on cardstock for about 10 cents each.
• Display thoughtfully: Arrange favors on a dedicated table near the exit or place one at each guest’s seat. If you’re short on time, the exit table approach is way less stressful.
• Skip them if needed: Seriously, guests attend because they love the parents-to-be, not for the parting gifts. If favors stress you out or bust your budget, it’s totally fine to skip them!
Budget tip: For 30 guests, budget $60-90 for decent favors. Or go the seed packet route for literally $15-20 total. I’ve given both expensive and cheap favors, and honestly, guests rarely remember either!

Sage Green Diaper Raffle Station
Image Prompt: A stylish diaper raffle station on a small side table with a sage green tablecloth. Features a decorative sage and white striped box with a slot cut in the top for raffle tickets, labeled “Diaper Raffle – Help Stock the Nursery!” Sage green raffle tickets sit in a small basket beside the box. A framed sign explains the raffle rules with botanical sage leaf decorations. Sample diapers of different sizes are displayed nearby. The setup feels organized and inviting rather than cluttered.
Let’s talk about the genius that is the diaper raffle! This helps stock the parents’ diaper stash while giving guests a chance at a prize. It’s practical, fun, and honestly just makes sense.
How to Do It
• Create your raffle box: Decorate a cardboard box or wooden crate with sage green paint or wrap it in coordinating paper. Cut a slot in the top for tickets.
• Design matching tickets: Print sage green raffle tickets (Canva has free templates) or purchase pre-made tickets from party stores. Each diaper pack brought equals one entry.
• Make rules crystal clear: Include raffle details on your invitation and at the station. Something like: “Bring a pack of diapers, any size, and enter to win a $50 gift card!” keeps it simple.
• Choose an appealing prize: Gift cards ($25-50), a spa basket, wine, or a popular book make great prizes that appeal to diverse guests. Skip baby-related prizes since non-parent guests attend too!
• Display diaper guidance: Show sample sizes so guests know what’s helpful. Many people don’t realize parents need more size 3-4 diapers than newborn!
Pro tip: Draw the winner toward the end of the shower when energy might be dipping. It creates a fun moment and ensures people stick around for the whole event!
Sage Green Photo Booth Corner
Image Prompt: A cozy photo booth corner featuring a sage green fabric backdrop hung on a portable stand. In front of the backdrop sits a rustic wooden bench with sage green and cream throw pillows. A small table nearby holds props in a wicker basket – oversized baby bottles, fun signs reading “Mom-to-be” and “Best Auntie,” sage green feather boas, and baby-themed accessories. A ring light provides flattering illumination. String lights draped above add sparkle. The space feels intimate and Instagram-ready.
Everyone loves a good photo op, and creating a designated spot makes it way more likely people will actually take photos (that they’ll later share and tag you in—hello, free shower documentation!).
How to Do It
• Create your backdrop: Hang sage green fabric, a decorated foam board, or that macramé piece we talked about earlier. A simple fabric backdrop costs $15-25 for enough material.
• Curate your props: Hit dollar stores for baby bottles, pacifiers, letter boards, and signs. DIY additional props with phrases like “Baby Mama,” “Best Auntie,” “Proud Papa,” or “Future Favorite Uncle.”
• Set up seating: A bench, chair, or even floor cushions give guests somewhere to pose. This also helps people feel less awkward than just standing!
• Lighting is everything: If your space lacks natural light, invest in a small ring light ($20-30) or string lights. Flattering light means better photos, which means happier guests.
• Make it self-serve: Place props in an obvious basket, maybe add a small sign with your shower hashtag, and let people do their thing. Consider a polaroid camera if you want instant physical photos for a guest book!
Time-saver: Set this up the day before your shower. Having it ready to go means one less thing to stress about on the actual day. Total investment: $40-70 depending on what you already own.
Sage Green “Advice for Parents” Cards Station
Image Prompt: An elegant advice card station on a small round table with a sage green runner. A decorative box labeled “Wishes for Baby” in gold script sits as the centerpiece. Stacks of cream cardstock advice cards with sage green borders sit beside small gold pens. A framed sample card shows the format: “Your best parenting advice,” “Your wish for baby,” etc. Small potted succulents and scattered eucalyptus sprigs decorate the table. Natural lighting creates a warm, inviting atmosphere for guests to pause and write.
This activity is honestly one of my favorites because it creates this incredible keepsake that parents can read during those tough 3 AM feeding sessions. Real talk: months later, these cards become treasured reminders of love and support.
How to Do It
• Design your cards: Create 4″x6″ cards with prompts like “My best parenting advice,” “A wish for baby,” “What I love about the parents-to-be,” or “Predict baby’s first word.” Print on cream or white cardstock with sage green borders.
• Set up the station: Use a pretty box or basket for completed cards, and display blank cards with nice pens (gold or sage green if you want to be extra). Place this near your entrance or gift table.
• Provide comfortable space: Make sure there’s actual table space where guests can write comfortably—standing and balancing a card while holding punch is nobody’s idea of fun!
• Include examples: Display a filled-out sample card so guests understand the vibe you’re going for. Some people freeze with blank cards!
• Alternative approach: Create a poster board or canvas where guests sign their names and write short messages. This becomes nursery art afterward!
Budget reality: This entire station costs maybe $10-15 total. Print cards at home, grab a decorative box from TJ Maxx ($5-8), and you’re done. Simple, meaningful, and budget-friendly!

Sage Green Mocktail Bar
Image Prompt: A beautiful self-serve mocktail station on a console table with a white tablecloth and sage green runner. Features a large glass dispenser filled with light green cucumber-mint lemonade, surrounded by sage green paper cups, striped paper straws, and fresh garnishes in small bowls (cucumber slices, mint sprigs, lime wedges). Chalkboard signs in gold frames label each drink option. Small votive candles and eucalyptus sprigs add elegance. Natural afternoon light makes the drinks look refreshing and appealing.
Can we just acknowledge that baby showers often feature the most boring beverages? Let’s fix that! A gorgeous mocktail bar adds sophistication while keeping things pregnancy-friendly for the mom-to-be.
How to Do It
• Choose your signature drinks: Go for light green options like cucumber-mint lemonade, sparkling lime-basil water, or a green tea-honey refresher. Aim for 2-3 options to avoid overwhelming yourself.
• Set up self-serve style: Use large glass dispensers ($15-25 each at Target or HomeGoods) so guests can serve themselves. This looks elegant AND saves you from playing bartender all afternoon.
• Garnish station is key: Provide cucumber slices, fresh mint, lime wedges, and maybe some edible flowers in small bowls. Let guests fancy up their own drinks—people love customizing things!
• Label clearly: Use small chalkboard signs or printed cards to identify each drink and its ingredients (important for anyone with allergies or preferences).
• Ice situation: Keep a separate bucket or bowl of ice nearby so drinks don’t get watered down in the dispenser. Small detail, big impact on taste!
Recipe tip: My go-to cucumber-mint lemonade is stupid simple: lemonade + muddled cucumber + fresh mint + sparkling water. Make a huge batch for maybe $10-15 total, and everyone thinks you’re a genius.
Woodland Sage Baby Book Library
Image Prompt: A charming “Build Baby’s Library” station displaying a collection of classic children’s books arranged on a rustic wooden shelf or ladder. Books include both timeless favorites and new releases, some with sage green covers visible. Small sage green bookplates sit in a basket with instructions: “Instead of a card, please sign a book!” A sample bookplate shows how to write the message and date. Potted plants and small woodland animal figurines (deer, rabbits) decorate around the books. The setup feels like a cozy forest library corner.
Instead of cards that get read once and filed away, have guests bring books and sign bookplates inside! This builds baby’s library AND creates lasting memories every time those books get read (which, with toddlers, is like 47 times a day).
How to Do It
• Communicate on invitations: Ask guests to bring a favorite children’s book instead of a card. Specify “new or gently used” so everyone’s comfortable with their budget.
• Provide bookplates: Design and print sage green bookplates (Etsy templates cost $5-8) or buy pre-made ones. Include text like “This book belongs to Baby [Name]” with space for the gift-giver’s message and date.
• Create display space: Set up a small bookshelf, ladder shelf, or even just baskets where guests can place their books. Make it visually appealing so people want to browse what others brought!
• Include instructions: A small sign explaining how to fill out bookplates helps guests who might not have seen this idea before. Place pens nearby!
• Alternative for those who forget: Keep a few extra children’s books on hand (Goodwill has them for $1-2) for guests who didn’t get the memo. No shame, just solutions!
Why I love this: Parents end up with an amazing book collection, and every book comes with a memory. Plus, books never go out of style or get outgrown like clothes. Win-win-win!
Sage Green Baby Predictions and Wishes Game
Image Prompt: A fun game station featuring a framed chalkboard with “Baby Predictions” written in gold calligraphy at the top. Below are categories like due date, weight, length, hair color, eye color, first word, etc. Sage green game cards laid out on the table show these same categories for guests to fill in. A decorated box collects completed cards. Small gold pens and a sample completed card guide guests. Eucalyptus sprigs and small baby-themed decorations (rubber duckies, tiny shoes) add playful touches. The setup feels interactive and engaging.
Game time! This one’s great because it doesn’t require people to be loud or competitive—it’s just fun predictions that the parents can look back on later and laugh at how wrong (or right!) everyone was.
How to Do It
• Design prediction cards: Include categories like birth date, time, weight, length, hair color, eye color, who baby will look like most, first word, and any fun personality predictions. Print on sage green cardstock.
• Make it easy: Pre-fill the parents’ names and shower date on cards so guests just fill in predictions. The easier you make it, the more people actually complete them!
• Create a collection box: Decorate a box or basket where guests deposit completed cards. The parents can open these after baby arrives and see who got closest!
• Add a competitive element (optional): Announce you’ll check predictions after baby arrives and the winner gets a small prize. This motivates guests to actually think about their guesses!
• Display a chalkboard: Have a large chalkboard or poster where you track the “wisdom of the crowd”—like average predicted weight or most common eye color guess. This gets people talking!
Pro tip: Keep these cards with the baby book! Reading them on baby’s first birthday is adorable, and seeing everyone’s hopes and predictions becomes this sweet time capsule.

Sage Green Sweet Treats Table
Image Prompt: A gorgeous dessert table with a sage green tablecloth as the base and white cake stands at varying heights displaying treats. Features sage green macarons, white cake pops with sage green drizzle, sugar cookies decorated with leaf designs, and white chocolate-covered strawberries with sage green accents. Small tags label each treat. Fresh eucalyptus and white flowers fill spaces between desserts. String lights or candles add ambient lighting. The overall look is cohesive, elegant, and utterly Instagram-worthy without feeling too precious.
Dessert tables are having a moment, and for good reason—they’re gorgeous, guests love them, and you can totally DIY most of it! Plus, variety means everyone finds something they like.
How to Do It
• Choose your desserts strategically: Mix homemade (cookies, cake pops) with store-bought (macarons from Costco, fancy chocolates). This saves sanity while maintaining quality.
• Color coordinate everything: Order or make treats in sage green, white, cream, and maybe touches of gold. Even plain sugar cookies look intentional when they match your theme!
• Create height variation: Use cake stands, inverted bowls covered with linens, or wooden boxes to display treats at different levels. This makes everything more visually interesting than just setting platters on a flat table.
• Label your offerings: Small tags or cards identifying each treat help guests with allergies and make decisions easier. Plus it just looks more professional!
• Don’t forget dietary needs: Include at least one gluten-free and one nut-free option. Quick heads up: this matters more than you think, and guests really appreciate being considered.
Budget breakdown: For 30 guests, you can create a stunning dessert spread for $75-100 if you’re smart about mixing homemade and purchased items. The key is making it look expensive without actually spending a fortune!
