Is paint and sip good for a baby shower?

One of the best formats for a baby shower, honestly. Here is why.

What makes paint and sip work for baby showers

A baby shower brings together people of different ages, different relationships to the mum-to-be and different ideas of what makes a good afternoon. Finding an activity that works for the grandmother, the work friends, the school friends and the cousins simultaneously is genuinely difficult.

Guided painting is the rare activity that works across all of these. It gives everyone something to do, generates natural conversation and does not require any prior experience or shared knowledge base.

What everyone takes home

Every guest at a Paint Juicy baby shower session leaves with a finished painting. For baby showers, many groups choose a design that has some relevance to the new arrival - a nursery-appropriate animal, a botanical piece, something that could hang in a baby's room.

This is one of the things that makes paint and sip baby showers particularly memorable. The guests painted at the shower. The baby gets surrounded by those canvases. That is a story that gets told for years.

Custom painting options for baby showers

For private baby shower bookings, you can choose a specific painting design from the Paint Juicy gallery or submit a custom brief.

Popular options include:

  • A specific animal or nursery theme that matches the room
  • A gender reveal element (painting one design to reveal the colour at the end)
  • A botanical or soft floral piece
  • A personalised design that reflects the parent or the family

Custom designs incur an additional fee and require a brief submitted at the time of booking.

Format adjustments for baby showers

Baby shower sessions can be adjusted in format to accommodate the mum-to-be. If a shorter session works better, Paint Juicy offers 90-minute express formats. If there are guests who need more movement breaks, the host can accommodate that.

The minimum group size for a private baby shower booking is 10 guests. The enquiry form on the website is the starting point.
