More Button Love

I don't know about you chaps, but we have rather dismal weather here today - rain and wind. But it's a good excuse to get on with some lovely creative projects instead of mowing the lawn ;o)

Here are some vintage buttons to get those creative juices flowing! The first mixed set are vintage glass buttons, known as 'moonglows' with a layer of transparent glass above the satiny base layer. They also have stripes and 'baubles' of gold lustre to add the finishing flourish. This set costs £6.00 from Love Buttons at MISI.

I have a set of wonderful, glossy, vintage plastic buttons in a dreamy shade of duck egg green marbled with gold. This set costs £2.50.

Last but not least, is a mixed set of three small vintage studio pottery buttons. Each one has a different glaze - white/cream; cep mushroom brown, and matt ochre. Wonderful to handle - each one a miniature masterpiece.
This set costs £9.00.
Find all sorts of Love Buttons at Etsy, MISI, Folksy and HQ - don't forget, you can combine P&P between sites, so that you only pay one postage charge per order!
