Cafe Baby - The Coffee Baby Shower

Café Baby, a.k.a. the Coffee Baby Shower, is a theme that’s most appreciated by coffee lovers. Use this party idea only if the guest(s) of honor are coffee drinkers. If they are, make sure your guests are in the mood for a nice cup o’ Joe, and lots of baby fun!

Invitations
Use plain paper with a coffee cup graphic for your background. Start off with something like "Calling all coffee lovers - We're having a Coffee Baby Shower!" Or, “Please join us at Café Baby for a baby shower celebration.”

Decorations
Since coffee is brown, you definitely want to make that one of your colors. If the baby is a boy, also use blue, and use pink for a girl. These decorations will be for a baby boy.
Head Table:
-A blue tablecloth with brown tableware.
-A little coffee cup in front of each plate.
-Brown baby shower confetti.
