Cute As A Button Theme

We know the new arrival will be adorable! So why not host a fab Cute As A Button theme for the baby shower? A simple idea that will be a huge hit!

Decor

Yup, you guessed it! The decor for this theme requires lots of buttons! Big, small, colourful, round, square, use it all! Scatter small buttons in the middle of the table to act as a centerpiece. A nice idea would be to create your own large buttons using paper plates and wool. Pierce two or four holes in the plates and thread the wool through. Keep threading it until it looks like a button that has been sown onto a coat.

Treats

Incorporate buttons into as many food items as possible. Think button style cookies, cupcakes and of course a cake. Make the cookies in different colours and sizes and display on a table. Bake or buy whatever type of cupcake you like (can’t go wrong with chocolate!) and make a button out of icing for the top. Make or buy a cake and decorate it with these icing buttons also. A nice idea would be to create a colour scheme based on whether the mum-to-be is having a boy or girl.

Games

‘Button Guesses’ is an easy and fun game to include in this baby shower. Pick up as many small buttons as you can and keep count of how many you have. Empty these buttons into a glass jar and close. The aim of the game is that each guest will have a go at guessing how many buttons are inside the jar. Reward the winner with a small gift such as chocolates or a cute mug with a quote on it.

So try out this cute theme for your next baby shower. The mum-to-be is sure to love it!
