Western Baby Shower Decorations and Balloons
1) Wagon Wheel and Cactus Balloon Arch
A balloon arch instantly elevates your baby shower decor, making it feel festive and photo-ready. This unique design pairs earthy tones with some decorations that give it a fun desert vibe. I just love how the letters have been made out of rope for some extra detailed western charm.
2) Red Bandana Napkin Holders
Transform simple napkins into a cowboy-worthy statement with red bandana holders. This small but mighty detail brings a pop of color to your table settings and ties the whole western theme together. It’s cute, easy, and totally Instagram-worthy.
3) Western Barrel and Balloon Arch
Nothing says “western” quite like a rustic barrel paired with a stunning balloon arch. With a mix of earthy tones and pops of metallics (like the gold lettering in the photo above), this setup brings charm and sophistication to your party décor. Use it as a photo backdrop or to anchor your dessert table—it’s guaranteed to steal the show.
4) Western Wagon Wheel Balloon Arch
Take your western vibes to the next level with a wagon wheel balloon arch. Combining rustic elements with playful balloons in muted hues, this setup is perfect for welcoming guests or framing a special moment like gift opening. It’s rustic meets whimsical perfection! I highly recommend using a cactus cut-out like the one in the photo above instead of a live cactus for photo ops. They’re much safer and still carry the same tone for your pics!
5) Hay Bale Western Balloon Arch
Nothing screams “western baby shower” like hay bales and balloons! This creative arch design combines the texture of real hay with soft pastel or neutral balloons for a charming country vibe. Place it near the gift table or as a backdrop for photos—yee-haw, it’s adorable!
6) Cowprint Balloon Arch
For a playful nod to the Wild West, a cowprint balloon arch is a total must-have. Pair classic black-and-white cowprint balloons with neutral tones to balance the bold pattern. It’s a fun and unexpected detail that brings your western baby shower theme to life!
7) Rustic Gift Table Decorations
Set the scene with rustic gift table decorations that tie your whole theme together. Think wooden crates, mason jars, and a sprinkle of greenery or wildflowers to complement your western vibe. It’s simple, charming, and a great way to display all those adorable baby gifts. Consider asking your friends and family to wrap gifts in brown paper or kraft paper to replicate this look!
8) Western Balloon Arch and Dessert Display
Combine style and sweetness with a western balloon arch framing your dessert table. From neutral tones to pops of western-inspired patterns, this setup creates a show-stopping centerpiece. Load the table with treats such as cookies shaped like cowboy boots or a themed cake to complete the look!
9) Longhorn Skull Decor
Does anything scream ‘western’ quite like a longhorn skull? All the wood elements in this setup and the adorable custom wooden sign pair so well together. This setup for a dessert table has a fresh, natural touch that complements the rustic, outdoorsy vibe of the theme.
Western Baby Shower Centerpieces
10) Cowboy Boot and Flowers Centerpiece
To re-create your own cowboy boot floral centerpiece, consider filling the toe of your cowboy boot with rocks to weigh it down so your display isn’t top heavy. If you place a bouquet of flowers directly in a boot, the flowers may wilt without water. You can put a mason jar of water inside the boot first, then put a bouquet of flowers inside so their stems can reach the water.
11) Stetson and Flowers Centerpiece
Love the look of a cowboy hat for your tablescape? Use a long linen table runner, eucalyptus green and pampas grass down the length of the table, then add some gerbera daisies to the stetson as added decor. If you’re worried about your gerberas wilting, you can ask your florist for some ‘floral water picks’ to make them last longer.
12) Wooden Horse Centerpiece
Who says you need flowers for your centerpiece? Use greenery like eucalyptus, a long linen table runner and some classic white candles to enhance your table. Adding iconic decorations like a simple western wooden toy horse will pull your theme together.
13) Cow-Print Vase Centerpiece
A cow print vase and sunflowers are the ultimate pair for a more farm-like vibe at your western-themed baby shower. For a more low-key event, try using gingham tablecloths or picnic benches outdoors.
Western Baby Shower Dessert Ideas
14) Detailed Western Baby Shower Cake
A western-themed baby shower cake is the ultimate showstopper! From mini skulls and ropes to cute little cacti or horseshoes, the details make it almost too pretty to eat. I love how the brown layer of frosting looks so earthy and pairs with the buttercream succulents.
15) Western Baby Boots Cake
A plain white cake with a fondant belt and baby booties is simple yet so elegant for a western-themed baby shower! The clean white base allows the intricate details of the fondant belt to stand out, giving it that perfect cowboy vibe. The adorable fondant baby booties on top add a sweet and personal touch, tying it all together. It’s the kind of cake that’s understated but still matches the baby shower theme perfectly.
16) Western Baby Shower Cake
The lifelike details of the boots and hat make it feel like a mini Wild West scene, while the bold cowprint adds a playful and fun touch.

Decorated with intricate icing designs, these cookies are as delicious as they are picture-perfect!
18) South West Custom Sugar Cookies
Sugar cookies with a Southwest vibe are a vibrant and unique addition to a western-themed baby shower! Llama-shaped cookies add a playful charm, while blooming cacti bring a touch of desert beauty. The colorful striped designs, inspired by traditional serape patterns, give the cookies a bold and festive look. Together, they create a perfect blend of Southwest flair and sweetness, making your dessert table both eye-catching and delicious!

Custom sugar cookies with a farm style theme are an absolute delight for a baby shower! In soft pastel colors and neutrals, these cookies bring a gentle and cozy vibe to your dessert table.

There are so many different styles you could go with for a western baby shower. From southwest to farmhouse or classic stetsons and boots, take your pick of fun!
20) Wild West Custom Sugar Cookies
This color palette of brown, white, blue, and green is the perfect mix of rustic charm and fresh fun for custom sugar cookies! Think cowboy hats in soft brown, adorable cow print designs, and baby onesies with little bandanas that are as cute as can be. Add in some cacti and bottles for that extra southwestern touch, all tied together with earthy tones and pops of blue and green. It’s the ideal combo of cozy, western vibes with a playful, baby-ready twist! These cookies will not only taste amazing but look totally irresistible too.
