Buttons

 Print

I love buttons. Many months ago, my grandmother found out I have this tiny obsession and began letting her friends know. Suddenly, I had a box, a jar, and a bag, all full of buttons. Some were vintage, some ordinary. I love sifting through the colors and the styles, wondering what clothing each one might belong on. Then, thanks to Scrap N' Art, I received another motherload of buttons. Blumenthal Lansing has been making buttons for over 150 years. In fact, many of the buttons I got from my grandmother and her friends were from Blumenthal Lansing, so imagine how fun it was to get a stash of new buttons from the same company.

So today, I've got a treat for you.

First, a couple of projects I created using the new buttons I received.

This sits on a shelf in my craft room and I love the cheerful, bright button mix with the black and white photo.

And this one.

The flower buttons were calling out for a garden theme. This collage-style piece was fun to make and makes me smile when I spot it in my craft room.

And last but not least, for my digi gals, those vintage buttons from my grandma and her friends? Well, now you can share them with me for your layouts. Just click on the preview to download a stash of buttons for your personal use. A little freebie from me!
