Button Floozies

These are some more button bracelets I whipped up recently. Take a look at my blog to see more about them.

On saturday, hubby and were out garage-saling and after I had purchased a couple of goodies from one house and started to walk away, I spotted this little treasure! The tin alone made me happy! But then I found that it was filled with vintage sewing goodies and lots of buttons....yippee! There were also needles, thread, cufflinks and garter clips...... fun! fun!

I recently covered this small dress form with buttons... caute! If you look closely you can see the bottom edge is scalloped. You can read more about it on my blog

What a beautiful swap present my mailman brought me a few weeks ago. Laurie from Indulge Your Shelf was my It's About Time swap partner. She sent many, many lovely items. One of my favorites is this beautiful button collage on damask which Laurie stitched herself!! What care she put into this fabulous work!!! This is an heirloom that I will be sharing with generations to come!!! If you'd like to see more pics of all the other great sewing items I received from Laurie, please visit me at Unshelved Words !

ok they're not strictly buttons but rather button brooches and i absolutely adore them! i have blogged all about them HERE

I was simply browsing through a few blogs, and look what I came upon! Couldn't resist linking to it so that you could all go and have a look! It's worth it! http://rosylittlethings.typepad.com/posie_gets_cozy/2006/05/jolly_little_ci.html

I want to wish all the button floozies a Happy 4th of July. This is a little flag I made out of vintage buttons. Just laid them out on a cloth and took a picture to put on my blog for Vintage Thingies Thursday . Just wanted to share this patriotic image made out of wonderful vintage buttons.

Hi Button Floozies - I just made some button bouquets and must give a big Thank You to Susan of T-Cozy for inspiring me with her lovely bouquets and tutorial. I have more photographs of my bouquets on my blog here . Please come visit and have a look!

I slipped away to the flea market on sunday with my friend Robin and got some fun stuff.... Here are some old-new stock millinery and a dolly dress and child's slip and of course..... BUTTONS! I always grab pink, blue and green buttons when I find them but who could pass up those pearly's? And that sweet little button card..... Heaven! Hope you have a great buttony week! karen....
