my button collection :)

Today my nieces came over and we made button flowers, it kept them occupied for ages.

I trawled some charity shops and really scored big time with some fab items (pics to follow) however these are my favourite finds of the day - soooo many cute buttons!!! Rabbits Toadstools Ducks Flowers - Why would you not want these!!

My first try at a button fairy. Had lots of fun putting it together and coming up with ideas for wings!

Boxful of my glass buttons, ready to take to Stourbridge Bead Fair this weekend.

Am I the only one who can never find quite the right button I'm looking for?

Today will be one of my rare no-neckwear days. I have not worn this in awhile, but once every few weeks or so I do like to try the buttoned up look. I work in the morning and plan to meet with a friend for a late lunch. With the cold weather and early darkness of the season I do not have any other plans so I will probably have a relaxing evening at home. I like the contrasting white collar on this black shirt. I have an all-black shirt on order and look forward to some outfit combinations with it soon.

I spent an afternoon at my mom’s the other day and browsed through her large stock of buttons, ribbons and old lace. A gold mine for a craft enthusiast! This is part of what I came home with. :-)
