My dear pal Cissie just got her button making company up and running again! If you need high quality buttons made at affordable prices-- she's your girl! Check it!
This button is made with silk velvet. The fabric in the cut out section, is a silk brocade. I have used cotton a broider for the button hole stitching which is also needle laced. Then I have added silk ribbon french knoted roses.

While walking along the Locust Fork riverbed in Alabama and taking pictures with flickerite friend Joe Miller (outsideshot) I noticed this unusual plant. If anyone can identify it for me.....please do. I have done some research online, but to no avail.
A flower, sometimes known as a bloom or blossom, is the reproductive structure found in flowering plants (plants of the division Magnoliophyta, also called angiosperms). The biological function of a flower is to affect reproduction, usually by providing a mechanism for the union of sperm with eggs. Flowers may facilitate outcrossing (fusion of sperm and eggs from different individuals in a population) resulting from cross pollination or allow selfing (fusion of sperm and egg from the same flower) when self pollination occurs. Some flowers produce diaspores without fertilization (parthenocarpy). Flowers contain sporangia and are the site where gametophytes develop. Many flowers have evolved to be attractive to animals, so as to cause them to be vectors for the transfer of pollen. After fertilization, the ovary of the flower develops into fruit containing seeds.
In addition to facilitating the reproduction of flowering plants, flowers have long been admired and used by humans to bring beauty to their environment, and also as objects of romance, ritual, religion, medicine and as a source of food.
Messing around with the macro lens filters. Really super hard to get the subject in focus when I'm at f/1.8 with this gizmo.
My "cutting table" is actually 2 pieces from my old bedroom set (a dresser and a desk) that are the exact same size pushed back to back. This is the top drawer of the desk side. I found these tins at the Goodwill about a month ago and decided to color code and organize my button stash with them. I'm using some desk organizers I already had to house some Command Hooks (can never seem to have enough) and some more clips for my inspiration wall.

Admirable sentiments on this little Damned button badge. The Pistols were always lauded as the one true great British punk band, the only band that mattered, and The Clash were the heroes of the serious political side of it all, but for me The Damned were far and away the best band of "the big three".
One of my buttons from the 90s. I came out as bisexual in the 1970s. In the 1980s I belonged to the Boston Bisexual Women's Network. This button is from the Bisexual Resource Center.
Some folks find the term confusing (or think bisexual folks are "confused"). As with everything else, different individuals define the term differently. In my case it means I look not at the gender but at the person when it comes to a relationship.
this was an attempt to make a quilt like this one: flickr.com/photos/eggmoney/400373863/ , mine doesn't look like hers which really worried me at first, the buttons were an afterthought in place of quilting stitching and I love them, in the end I'm happy with it
Project Specs
Pattern: b14-27 Jacket (available for free)
Pattern Source: DROPS design
Yarn: Malabrigo Sock in Lettuce 57g (255 yds) and Boticelli Red 74g (325 yds)
Needles: Addi Lace 24" circular needle size US1
Finished Size: 6/9 months, but I think think my finished jacket will bit a 12/18 month old child better.
Modifications: Slipped the first stitch of each row on button bands and continued the slipped stitched border around neck hole. Used other end of skeins to work sleeves to cut down on finishing time.

There is also a T-shirt from this design:
I think these will become kitschy cocktail rings.
They're made of vintage and new buttons, plastic flower parts, and freshwater pearls or swarovski rhinestones in the centers.
