Button Floozies

Don't forget: if you're near Denver, Colorado this weekend, it's the Colorado State Button Society's Annual Show! We'll have the best selection of antique, vintage, modern, unusual, and BEAUTIFUL buttons for sale by national vendors...as well as educational displays, competition trays, and workshops!  Plus, the chance to rub elbows with fellow button-lovers.  So. Much. Fun.  I hope to see you there! -- Laurie

oh my goodness how cute is this little fox button? very very VERY!

Leah loves sorting buttons. She also looks for ones that she can use on the clothes she makes for her dolls.

I attended my Colorado State Button Society's Entering and Judging Workshop Saturday, and as a reward for studying button classifications all morning, members had a button sale in the afternoon! Some of my goodies are posted on my blog this morning -- come and see !  And, while you're there, please peek at the pretty buttons on the flyer I did as Publicity Chair of the CSBS, too in the post just before it, also here .

I bought 2 jars of buttons at a thrift shop and found these pretty pink ones.

Make sure you're sitting down before you click over to this gorgeous piece of button decor by Connie at She Dreams Big .  I'm linking with permission, and here's a sneak peek: Gorgeous.  Absolutely button-licious.  What have you been creating with buttons lately?

Buttons aren't just for traditional froo froo, they are playing a key role in modern furniture  design and decor. Take for example these gorgeous pillows I found at http://www.allmodern.com/ . I love the fresh new take on such an ancient tool. Do you use buttons in a new fresh way? I'd love to see!
