A Buttony Day.....

My name is Karen (aka Recycled Rita) and I am a button floozie. I have tried to deny it for a while now, but there is no avoiding it! I am madly in love with buttons and have grown quite a collection...
My friend has been helping me find goodies for my inspiration kits that I sell on etsy and she brought this wonderful sewing drawer full of buttons to me on friday:


I was happy the rest of the day! Here are some close-ups... pretty colors....

Lovely Whites......

And sparkly rhinestones.....

OOOoooooo La La! Then today, while shopping at the flea market with me, she pulled out a baggie and said "you seemed to like those buttons the other day..." Are you kidding me??? and she got all of these for $1 and won't let me give her any extra!

I will be keeping some and selling some on my etsy. I love to pair my love of vintage postcards and ephemera with buttons. Here are some button cards that I just listed on my etsy site today:
Well, I would love you to come visit me on my blog, I am having a giveaway that ends today...would love to have all of you come join!
Thanks for listening...I am feeling so much better! Hee! hee~ karen....

hi, oh how much I love buttons, ever since a child when home sick from school, mum would bring the spare button jars into my room and I'd tip them out on the bedspread and play with them! I now craft and have a gift ideas blog, you can see some button items there (button tshirt designs, button tissue box covers, and soon button gift boxes...)

I will definitely be following your button posts, and perhaps making some swaps?
You are awesome!

You have some absolutely beautiful buttons there--quite a find! I love how you combine a vintage image with your buttons. Nicely done.
