While rummaging in my button stash looking for some hoops to make Dorset Buttons, I found this lovely box.
Olive and Me-Me showing off their Button Arcade dresses. I got lucky with the Space Invader one in the shop, and I had the other commissioned after I saw the Hobbit. Love them!

Button Bear... made my charlie bears... here he is sitting with his hero's 1/2 scale replica helmet...
Jenson loved meeting Karen's button bear... it was the first time he'd actually seen it for real... -and he now owns one too :)
I was having so much fun making this that I couldn't resist taking a picture before it was finished. I won't be tossing this one ; )

Hand Pumper built in 1848 by the L. Button Company of Waterford, NY and delivered by way of the Erie Canal in December of 1848 to Fort Wayne. First operated by the Germania Fire Company. Pulled on site by a dozen or more men and operated in shifts of several minutes in up and down strokes of 60+ per minute. A fascinating piece of actual local history that has been preserved for over 164 years.
Button shells are found buried in the sand, only reaching out its eyes and tentacle to forrage for food. When disturbed, these small but mighty shells gives a spiralling leap and buries itself into the sand again. Empty shells are also popular hangout places of hermit crabs, providing them with a safe and secure home away from predators.
camera batteries died before I could experiment with this light... and concept more... used build in flash and a piece of looseleaf... also I'm aware of the terrible framing but I still like this falling button... tried holding two in my eyes like monacles but the facial expression was horrific haha. and they fell out... hence the falling button.
My button came in today from Buttonhead.org. For all you persistant 365days-ers out there, look into getting one. Great little keepsake to remind me of the trip.
Thanks to Steph for the heads up about them :)
