The phrase comes from before my great-grandparents' era, before plastic was invented, and buttons were replacing buckles and ties as fasteners on clothing. Buttons were of die-cast metal or glass, and were quite colorful (cute), ornate, expensive, etc.

My thoughts exactly... I haven't been told that since I was about 12 I was too young back then to appreciate it.

Take it as a compliment.

well... no one asked me... but I do happen to know the origin of the phrase ....cute as a button...it actually has nothing to do with a button as in a button on a shirt... the button quail is a very small gray super fluffy squishy looking..cute if you will.. bird. people used to say cute as a button... meaning...cute as a button quail...b/c the bird was considered so adorable... THAT is where it comes from. get it?

PLUS I gotten cute as a bugs ear... now WTH is that? I got it twice by two different men... :laughing: rofl :laughing:
