On a stroll though Etsy.com this morning, lo and behold. I adore these. I think maybe, I could even make them, all thumbs that I am. Of course mine won’t have hand-dyed thread etc….
But with all the buttons any resale or consignment shop accumulates (and you KNOW how we hate to throw things away…) and the bits and pieces of costume jewelry and odds and ends of rickrack and trim….
Pins, barrettes, bouquets…some cool stuff. Shop Princesslasertron here.

I glued some vintage buttons onto plain rings that I bought at Hobby Lobby and sold them at the shop. They were a huge hit…I need more wacky buttons!
I’ve collected wacky buttons since I was a kid, and have bowls full of them. I’ll bet Kenny wishes I’d make something out of them and sell them!
hm. I wonder what I could make out of his marble collection!
damn you Kate! I just spent waaay too much money on those flowers!
