Description
We went with the "cute as a button" theme and also combined that with a vintage feel using a lot of burlap, mason jars, and baby's breathe.
Design Inspiration
Our nursery room colors, and our families' antique mason jars.
Decorating Style
Antique/vintage
Project Details
We made almost everything ourselves including the fabric & pennant banners, the large wooden button garland the paper button garland. The galvanized items like the three tier stand the glasses were on and the drink dispensers were all from Pottery Barn.
The photos are a combination from two showers one at my mom's and the other at my mother-in-laws, but we shared a lot of the decorations and all worked together to create the look we wanted.
Favorite Items

I found large wooden circles at hobby lobby for 1.99 each (almost 14 inches) and plan on drilling holes in them….. they have a nice curved edge to look like a button….ordered them on line
Where did you find the large buttons or if you made them, can you give directions?

Everything is ABSOLUTELY beautiful! From the buttons to banners I’m highly obsessed!! I’m planning a baby shower for my sister at the end of February. She adopted a baby back in November so my mom and I would like to make this shower VERY special and give her everything she needs/wants. I would LOVE if there was any way you can make these things for me?! I know that may be a lot to ask but I’m not very crafty and if so, we could figure something out. If not, I understand. Everything is just perfect!

[…] Cute as a Button Baby Shower projects are due October 25, 2015; the large buttons shown in the photo are in process. The 6” plaques were purchased from Hobby Lobby have been painted with my homemade chalk paint; Smiley Face, Miami Weiss, Caffeine, Tasmanian Sea, and Iron Mountain. My hubby drilled the button holes in some of the plaques. I will need to do some paint touch, but for the most part the buttons are looking good. My plan is to continue posting my progress with all of the Cute as a Button Baby Shower projects and post photos from the event. I also found this idea on Pinterest: Baby Shower Cute as Button. […]
Would love the directions for the large wooden buttons.Maybe an item number from Hobby Lobby would help. Thank you.
Is it possible to get the directions for the large wooden buttons. The look rounded and natural not like just like flat wood. Maybe an item number from hobby lobby? Planning a shower in October for my daughter and want to get started ASAP
So sorry this is probably to late for everyone, but maybe it can help for future mom’s to be. The Wishes for Baby card was designed by my sister-in-law. I think she found the content just online but edited it to go with the theme, and it was the same with all the other “cards”, too. I found a template and then edited it to match my color scheme. The large wooden buttons my mom made out of the wooden circles she got at Hobby Lobby and then drilled the holes and painted them.
Where did you get the large buttons on the table or how did you make them. I need some for my daughters baby shower. Thank yoi

I love the well wishes for baby cards. Did you make or buy those? or download a template? They would be perfect for my friend’s shower
can you please tell me where you purchased the big wooden buttons on the table or were they made?
Love the advice and baby cards!!! do you have a template for them?
[…] Everyone loves to see the miracle of a developing baby, why not show these off at the baby shower? Use a framed bit of chicken wire and some wooden clothespins for a simple, rustic vibe.{found on projectnursery}. […]
What were the big buttons on this table made from? I too love all things button.

Where did you get the large wooden buttons?
Where are the wooden buttons for the garland from? I LOVE THEM!
I love the “wishes for baby” and “advice for mother” cards. Looked on Etsy and didn’t find the templates. Do you have a source?
My mom made the button garland that was strung on the staircase, after buying a few very expensive wooden buttons from etsy.
I made a set and my sister-in-law made a set, I can send you mine if it isn’t too late.
where did you find the cute parenting advice cards?!?
Did you make the large wood buttons or purchase them? If you purchased them, please tell me where!
I love the beverage dispenser… I actually bought mine at http://www.classichostess.com They have a huge line as well, and great prices.
I’m one of those ladies who have an unexplainable fondness for buttons, too! In fact, my husband calls me the crazy button lady. So if there’s someone who could appreciate your “cute as a button” theme, that’s me!
