This is a farther Christmas made out of buttons. We did this last year at scouts and the kids came up with all manner of interesting designs. The figure is just buttons stacked up with a pipe cleaner in the middle and is about 1.5 inches tall. HMM
For the Macro Mondays theme: Buttons and Bows I choose Bows. These Christmas bows will definitely give you a Christmas Holiday feeling.
With thanks to the "Button Lady" Dawn :-)
Many thanks for the Favs and Comments much appreciated HMM

Large manhunt initiated! A spectacular and mysterious robbery of a previously unknown painting report the international news. A valuable landscape painting was stolen last night from the private property of an English count. He had inherited the picture and kept it secret so far. It was secured with the latest light barrier technology. One wonders how the robbers could overcome all barriers. The ransom note is still expected. (Note: Or, for once, it's not about money – and the two little thieves (sister and brother) have just got their rightful inheritance back?)
/ Well, it's not a work of Turner ;-) It's a button that I painted at the age of about 15 years with this landscape – long ago – and I have found in the old button box ... The size is 0,63 inch, the eyelet for sewing is on the back. The two figures are from children's surprise eggs.

Kunstraub eines unbekannten William Turner. Oder: Wir haben es!
Große Fahndung eingeleitet! Einen spektakulärer und mysteriöser Raub eines bisher noch unbekannten Gemäldes melden die internationalen Nachrichten. Aus dem Privatbesitz eines englischen Grafen wurde gestern Nacht ein wertvolles Landschaftsgemälde entwendet. Dieser hatte das Bild geerbt und bisher geheim gehalten. Es war mit der neuesten Lichtschrankentechnik gesichert. Man fragt sich, wie die Räuber alle Schranken überwinden konnten. Die Lösegeldforderung wird noch erwartet. (Anmerkung: Oder es geht mal ausnahmsweise nicht um Geld – und die beiden kleinen Diebe (Schwester und Bruder) haben sich nur ihr rechtmäßiges Erbe zurückgeholt?)
/ Na gut, es ist doch kein Kunstwerk von Turner ;-) Es ist ein Knopf, den ich im Alter von ca. 15 Jahren mit dieser Landschaft bemalt habe – lange her – und den ich in der alten Knopfdose wiedergefunden habe ... Die Größe beträgt 16 mm, die Öse zum Annähen ist auf der Rückseite. Die beiden Figuren sind aus Kinder-Überraschungseiern.

Button from the sleeve of a jean jacket from the famed 20th century icon and socialite whose jeans made the 80s most wanted list.
My grandmother had a big box filled with buttons. I loved to play with them when I was young. When she passed away I inherited a box full of memories. HMM
Macro Monday theme - Buttons and Bows
The head of one of my sock snowmen is about 2 inches.
Happy Macro Monday!

Quite some years ago I had an even crazier hobby than photography and I used to venture out with a metal detector, hunting for celtic coins in the surrounding farmer's fields.
The English military buttons you see in the picture, I now keep amongst my other finds in a collector's folder.
HMM everybody!

This is a set of six enamelled brass buttons that once belonged to my aunt. Each button is about 18mm in diameter and they probably date from around 1900. I tried to come up with a clever way of presenting them but every attempt seemed to detract from their appearance. In the end I just laid them out as they might have appeared on a card when they were first sold.
