She’s a successful actress and a doting mother to her little girl with another baby on the way but Jessica Alba has revealed she has a secret talent.

The 29-year-old has demonstrated how her artistic skills stretch beyond the screen by hosting a homemade baby shower made from her own arts and crafts.

Jessica, who is currently expecting her second child with husband Cash Warren, posted a series of pictures of the creative process – with plenty of paper, glitter and glue on hand for good measure – to her Facebook page.
