All the best for all of you for the 2009!

Wow Joanne, that's absolutely fabulous!!! What a gorgeous idea!
That is so pretty! Could you give a tutorial on it? I am guessing you used a styrofoam cone underneath and pins and beads to attach the buttons. I love it. Could be done in green too.
Ooooh! I love I this! I have a lot of white buttons and will store this idea!
Wow, fabbo! I think I am inspired!
It's beautiful! Very striking.
I just took apart a button tree that I did a couple years back but never liked. I've come to the conclusion that they look best with just one color of button all over. Mine was pink and aqua and it just looked like a big ol' mess! Monochromatic is best.
That is lovely! Are they glued on or pinned on?
Pretty, pretty, pretty!
the white button tree is really elegant! I have a TON of white buttons...guess i'll have to wait till next Christmas...thanks for sharing! *elaine*
~*Jenn*~ - thank you :*
Neabear - thank you :*
A tutorial? Hmmm... it's quite simple: I used green florist's foam, then white cotton ribbon to cover the green, and then pins and beads to attach the buttons, starting from the bigger ones, then smaller and smaller....and that's it :)

I had a ot of white buttons, and I wanted White Christmas, so white was the colour of my choice :). Other colours would look great also, but I didn't have enough buttons.

WoW! Love it! Very pretty!
Have a happy week! ~Smiles~Tam!
Your white tree is so beautiful! What a wonderful idea. And not only for Christmas. Think of how pretty a button tree with pink, purple, red or heart-shaped buttons would look for Valentine's Day ... or bunny and such shaped buttons for Easter. Oh the possibities are almost endless. You've gotten my creative juices flowing. Thanks so much for sharing!
i absolutely LOVE your button tree!! Thank you so much for sharing such AWESOME inspiration! i, now, look forward to gathering up ALL & ANY white buttons around my house!! :D Hope you have a GREAT day!

Thats very impressive!
This is lovely!! I like the fact that it is all a creamy colour and th epin heads a beads have light bouncing off them. Very clever.
Hello,
Recently I found this wonderful site. I am a Button lover, do many things with buttons, my scottie is named Button. I would Love to become a Button Floozie!!!!!
Thank you,
Peggy aka ButtonQueen
Beautiful! And even better, I have a styrofoam tree in the garage! Wish me luck in trying this out!
This is simple and elegant. I think what really ties it together well is the fact that each button set is finished off with the same type of bead. Ingenius!
Where can you buy buttons in bulk? Thanks so much.
