Cute as a button baby shower or party theme

Ugh - what they say about car accidents is true! You always feel worse the next day! ewwww... I have a brunch to throw on Sat, I need to feel better dang it! Parties take priority!!

Now that the holidays are over... time to start planning all the parties of the year! "Cute as a button" is a great theme for baby showers or 1st bdays! Peek at older, but still fresh!, Frosting for this theme here.

This would be a cute invite! Or write different sayings on them or put pictures on each to create a banner - the mini clothespins (buy here) are the perfect dab of Frosting too! Source

Use inexpensive styrofoam forms (can get from dollar store) and glue and or pin buttons of different sizes and colors to create adorable centerpieces! Looks great on round forms too! Source

Use different shape forms to glue buttons together for serving bowls... even create flat serving trays too! Source

How fun are these cake pops? And no messy dipping ;o)  Just mini cupcakes, dollop of frosting, and cut buttons out of fondant! Source

Cute as a Button Theme

I love gender neutral parties, especially when it comes to babies! A fun one is "cute as a button".  Here are some ideas to frost your next button party!  For those new to Frost Me! be sure to join the Facebook page to get an extra dab of frosting that complements each day's theme!

I have been craving cookies lately! Looking at the oven as we speak ;o)  These shortbread cookies would be such a great dessert or favor for the party (and yep, Lelan, you are eating one because you'll love my shortbread ;o)  Just cut round cookies and use a lid right right size to press and indented circle, next use a toothpick or skewer (depending on cookie size) to make the button holes, so easy!

Cut out small buttons out of craft paper and "sew" them on to the invites! You could then use some to make garland (either vertical or horizontal) and also for the thank you cards!  Source

Don't forget to decorate your envelopes when you mail! You could make one like the Source did or buy a stamp here

You could glue buttons on a runner, napkins, vases, towels - anywhere! I like how they did it just on the edges that draped down so it doesn't get in the way of anything on top.  You could do this with any theme - imagine gluing 3D paper butterflies all the way down the side of an inexpensive piece of fabric!
