Eva's Storybook Shower

Have I mentioned I'm going to be an aunt??? Christy, my sister-in-law, is going to have a baby girl in about three weeks, Lord willing!  Josie had the fabulous idea of throwing her a storybook themed shower, to which guests were asked to bring their favorite children's story instead of cards.  I loved this theme.  The concept was wonderful, as was the execution.  Here is some inspiration if you are planning something similar!

I made the garland hung over the curtains which reads
Once upon a time
there was a little
princess named Eva
Crafted from scrapbooking supplies, an old paperback book, and baker's twine

Wreath made of the same rolled storybook pages.
Center reads "Once upon a time, Eva...."
