We know how important it is for you to host an impressive event – and impressive events mean unique and original party decorations. Learn how to use cut-out paper shapes with these inspiring ideas. By adding extra-special touches to your party with quick craft ideas, your celebration is going to be one-of-a-kind.

The best part of shaped cut-outs is the variety you get in just one pack. With multiple characters or shapes, you can have a precisely mixed display of food or party favors.

craft one // Cupcake Topper = Cut-Out + Toothpick
This is an easy party idea that anyone can do. Simply attach a toothpick to the back of a shaped cut out using glue or tape. Insert them into the top of frosted cupcakes just before your guests begin to show up. Better yet, add a matching cupcake wrapper and you will have an impressive sweet display!

craft two // Water Bottle Decor = Cut-Out + Ribbon & Burlap
Begin by wrapping your water or soda bottles in a thick ribbon that coordinates with your party theme. Add a complimentary color of thinner ribbon over the top and glue both at the back. Then glue a die cut paper shape to the front and display.

craft three // Buffet Table Accent = Cut-Out + Paper & Frame
You don’t have to buy new stuff just for your party – take a walk through your home and collect things that match your theme. This buffet table accent was made with a frame from the host’s mantle. You can quickly glue a paper cut-out onto coordinating scrapbook paper, then place it in the frame. With an easel back, framed cut-outs will fill in gaps on your tables and pull the entire party together.
