Wheels or Heels Decor

How about spray painting a toy monster truck and a second hand pair of heels to create a fabulous centerpiece like this one from Decor by Heidy?

A tire track table runner or backdrop is another great idea. Tire track gift wrap and backdrop fabric available in our Spoonflower shop HalfpintPartyDesign. Image from my son's Monster Truck birthday party.
What about this darling cart set up by Angie's Dream Decorations? Love that the large cart wheels are such a focus for a sophisticated wheels or heels gender reveal party display. Cart available from MiVintage. AND they used my favorite banner!

Don't forget about yourself! Mom-to-be needs something fun to wear to the gender reveal. How about this maternity week by week countdown shirt by Hashtag Twin Clothing!?
And you can't have a wheels or heels gender reveal party without a great pair of heels! But be careful as your tummy grows, heels can throw you off balance and hurt your back and hips. These high heeled wedges from Amazon are still sexy but much safer! They're easy on the eyes and the pocket book!
