Macro Mondays "Button(s)"

My fabulous package from Jen in the Vintage Button Swap! Gorgeous red, black and white buttons, a pile of fabulous fabric scraps, two embroidered linen teatowels, a pile of paper ephemera, and a kitschy craft book! More descriptions on my blog: paper.string.cloth

1. First, you will need:

 

wire, about 24" (I find 22 and 24 gauge to work best)

various buttons

face image(collage sheets, photos, clip art, etc)

wings(collage or clip art images, drawn, clay, shrink plastic, etc)

wire cutters

card stock

glue

scissors

 

2/3. First, decide how much of the picture you wish to use and how you want to place it with the wings. I decided to use just the face for this one. I like to glue the wings and face to a piece of cardstock to make it a little stronger, then cut them out.

 

4. Next, I like to lay out my buttons to get an idea of what combination I like.

After my last posting I missed a button from my dress. Yesterday I found it, so

 

I lost a button,

A little silver button,

So I looked for my button

Most everywhere.

 

I found my button,

My gold rimmed button,

So I sewed on my button

Most firmly there.

 

Just to make you smile!

 

With apologies to AAMilne.

Well, that's my name for these tiny Mushrooms. They've started to show up around our property. I'm thinking they're from debris from when our property was logged back in the 1920s. Because of the lens this was a 24 image stack, even though is was a tiny mushroom.

Macro Mondays: Buttons and bows

 

Some serendipity with this shot - the flash was not charged so it did not fire and the shot was seriously underexposed. I boosted the exposure a lot in Lightroom and I am very pleased with the way the white translucent button caught the light from the window, which became the main light source . I hope you like it.

I rather like the blue tinge camera sensors impart to snow in the shade. Of course Eskimos might not see it that way ( bless their little button noses ). But it does emphasize the cold.

I was considering putting this up as one of my photos for the Macro Monday theme Button(s) but thought that as some one had already put a similar photo up it would miss the Cut. This is a button from my Number 1 Home Dress whilst I served in the Royal Air Force from January 1977 until July 2014. Per Ardua ad Astra "Through adversity to the stars"

We have no idea. It's lost to history. All that can be remembered about the history of this button is that it was given out to employees of Ideal Mutual, an insurance company. To inspire the workers, a guy in a black cape would stalk the offices, for he was the Ideal BAD guy. BAD was an acronym, but for what? We don't remember.

I came across these further out on the board walk. Water is still to deep for anything to happen. managed to get a blue heron foraging and it looked like he was sitting on the water like a goose. They are wading birds and he was in the shallow water.

These delightful 'button mums' are very perky and bright. Usually only 1 - 1.5" across, they provide a warm glow during the autumn time period.

I've always thought of boot buttons as black, but it seems some of them were very colourful. I don't know how many buttons were on each boot, but it's hard to imagine pulling a boot on and having to draw each button through a hole with a button hook. I guess they got used to it, but what a performance! Both the boot buttons and the folding button hook date from the 1910s. The buttons are ⅜" wide.

Taken from a button on his vest. And it is very true! This man was gracious when asked if I could photograph him.
