Anthropologie baby shower and How to frost a cake like a pro

A Wonderful friend of mine is about to have a little baby girl
named Opal, and to celebrate the occasion,
I threw her a little intimate "Anthropologie" baby shower. 
I call it this because this is what one of the guests described it as, and it stuck. 
Below is a sneak peak of some of the arrangements I had a blast putting together for the shower!
Plus, a tip on how to frost your cake like a pro!
Goodbye party balloons, Hello paper wheels!

"Brown paper packages tied up with string (or in this case, mustard yellow velvet ribbon),
these are a few of my favorite things..."
