Wooden Buttons On Love Buttons HQ

Morning all! I imported some wooden buttons from India - a complicated process with money transfers through 3 banks - 35 emails and a wait of 8 weeks - but here they are and I'm really pleased with them.
The buttons pictured above, together with coconut buttons and painted wood buttons are priced at £0.45 - £1.40 each and can be found on Love Buttons HQ.

These would make perfect bag closures, or decorative accents for quilts, wall hangings or chunky knitwear.
