- 1). Find out what the expecting parents plan to name the baby, if you can. Spell out this name or the names of the parents-to-be in the center of the table with classic wooden alphabet blocks. Surround the blocks with a ring of tea light candles, making sure to leave plenty of room between the wooden blocks and the candle wicks.
- 2). Make your own blocks from square cardboard boxes and paints if you do not have wooden alphabet blocks. Paint each cardboard box a different acrylic color using a sponge brush; primary colors work well. Allow the paint to dry completely; draw on the letters with a paint pen.
- 3). Decorate the table with small, faux gifts. Use baby-themed wrapping paper to wrap square cardboard boxes. Finish the boxes with plenty of ribbons and bows and place them in a decorative pile in the center of the table.
