Frequently Asked Questions

What are some balloon-free decoration options for a boho theme?
Use pampas grass, fabric bunting, paper fans, macramé wall hangings, and dried florals. These alternatives create the same dreamy, bohemian atmosphere without balloons.
How can I make a boho theme work outdoors?
Ensure you have shade coverage and use weights for stands to keep decorations secure. Consider wind-resistant elements like macramé and fabric bunting that move beautifully in the breeze.
Are pampas grass and dried florals safe for baby showers?
Yes, but be sure to label them clearly for guests with allergies. Consider using artificial alternatives if you have guests with severe allergies to grasses or pollen.
