A gift of buttons

Did you get anything especially, wonderfully, button-y during your holiday celebrations this year?  If so -- send me a photo and I'll post it on this blog!

Look at this pretty work of art I received!

It's a beautiful clutch purse decorated (by hand!) with every color and variety of sewing buttons!

Plus, a bit of lace and some beads for good measure.

You wouldn't believe how wonderful it feels in your hands!

Here's the back.  Can you believe it?  I received it during the gift exchange at my button club's Christmas luncheon!  (Please feel free to "like" our Facebook page and keep up with all the button fun!)

Idell made it; she and I have something beyond buttons in common: we both moved to Colorado from the same town in California.  But, I never met her when I lived there.

I know if I had -- we would have been friends!

I hope some buttons found their way into your Christmas celebrations!
