For starters, there are plenty of gender neutral colors: yellow (obviously), orange, most shades of green, gray (so modern and chic), white, black...yeah. I'm not sure that a black themed baby shower would be cool, but a black and white, retro baby shower could be awesome. I'm thinking checkered table cloth, jars of licorice and marshmallows, oreo cookies and milk, old typewriter print on stark white paper, newspaper wrapped favors. Cue a mood board.

Or, veer away from color themes and go with a more complex theme. Showers themed around holidays and seasons are easily gender neutral. An autumn themed baby shower with reds, oranges and browns would be just lovely. With the 4th of July coming up, a red, white and blue baby shower would be totally appropriate and gender neutral. Again, a mood board for some visual inspiration.
