Wedding Programs and Escort Cards at The Matthews House

Beautiful wedding programs and escort cards add just the right touch to outdoor summer weddings. We had lots of fun working with Morgan and Michael (...and Morgan's mother, Donna) for almost a year helping them get ready for their big day at The Matthews House last month. We thank them for allowing us to create their save-the-dates, wedding invitations, thank-you notes, wedding programs, table cards and escort cards. Our calligrapher does wonderful work we might add! Thank you to Scott Clevenger (www.scottclevengerphotography.com) for these fabulous pictures. Did we say we love summer weddings?

Enjoy!

Questions From Our Awesome Customers - Gift Ideas for Baby Showers



Questions From Our Awesome Customers - Gift Ideas for Baby Showers

q: I'm going to a baby shower. The mom-to-be doesn't want to know if she's having a boy or girl? Any gift ideas?

a: Ahh. It's nice to know that some people still believe in the element of surprise.

Babies are a blessing, so we wish every mom-to-be a healthy and happy delivery!

We have cute gift ideas for the new bundle of joy. We love our baby spoons. Both boys and girls have to eat, so why not feed them with Beehive Kitchenware Company's lead-free pewter spoons that can be washed in mild soap (shown)? Who wouldn't coo over the baby pigs, chicks, rabbits and ducks featured on these adorable spoons?

Also, our silver-plated baby banks and picture frames,and "Mommy & Me" (shown), and fabric picture frames are great gifts. Pregnancy and baby journals are also a popular item among the "mom-crowd".

We have a great local woman who embroiders burp cloths. They're soft, cuddly and come in colors that are fit for any new prince or princess.

And don't forget the mom. We have gifts to pamper her and make her feel special as she winds down her last months of pregnancy. Bringing an extra gift (which of course, doesn't have to be expensive) for the woman of the hour is always a nice touch.

Be Sweet!
Keep your questions coming

Here Comes the Grooms...Mens Gifts



What about gifts for me and my boys? That's a question we often get asked by grooms-to-be about gifts to give the members of their wedding party. After all, everything doesn't have to be all about the bride (shh...I'm whispering now).

What do we recommend? Well, popular groomsmen gifts at Cute Buttons Gift and Paper Boutique are colored and personalized shot glasses, leather money clips, picture frames, personalized flash drives (shown) and cd cases or a box of men's personalized stationery for those daring to be different. Of course the tried and true personalized two-tone, stainless steel flask (shown) which holds up to six ounces of their favorite beverage, is a hot item among grooms. Just make sure you don't get us in trouble with your future Mother-in-Law if you choose to present them at your wedding reception...

Colorful Wedding Table Number Cards are Great for Summer Wedding Receptions


Cute Buttons Gift and Paper Boutique happily created these colorful table number cards for our bride who’s getting married this weekend at the Matthews House in Cary. Remember: table number cards not only help your guests find their seats, but by making them fun and colorful, they can add to the decor of your reception table. We layered ecru linen matte paper on green, orange and magenta shimmer papers. These colorful table number cards will be dispersed among different tables to provide a whimsical setting.

With the right place cards, menu cards, flowers and china added to the mix, you’re all set to celebrate your Summer “I-do’s”!

Pajamas are All the Rage at Cute Buttons





We just got these super cute pajamas in the store. Pajamas in a stationery store, in this heat? Yes, yes we did. And they are cute. 100% cotton, lightweight and colorful (...and of course, machine washable). These two-piece sets are great for cool nights lounging at the beach. If a beach isn't in your future anytime soon, pair the bottoms with your favorite tee for your "staycation" or just for evenings when you get home from work. Lightweight enough to take you into the Fall!

FOUR great colors to choose from (blue circles, blue paisley, red and green). Sizes S/M and M/L with draw-string pants ~ enough room for you to splurge on a pint of Edy's ice cream. Come in to see them, call in your order at 919.462.9618 or jump on our website! www.shopcutebuttons.com
