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.
