Buttons heaven

buttons

lots of buttons New buttons are ready to be used...for many crafty projects. I just love fabric buttons, it is always so neat to see how a small detail of fabric is looking good as a button and how different details of the same fabric can be so beautiful and unique. I always love to wear a button used as an whimsy accent in a jewelry piece and weather it is a brooch, earrings, headband, bracelet or necklace it is always great way to keep it in touch with your favorite fabrics and in a way even with favorite designers, people who created those gorgeous designs.

I was truly enjoying doing some pin tucking today for the white beach dress ordered through etsy

It always happens that when I prepare myself for drawing some new drawings (I need to prepare the exhibition next year), that I suddenly get a lot of orders that keep me in stitches.....but anyway, I preferred sewing than drawing during this week and these rainy days, as for drawing and painting I somehow get in better mood when having better light with some sunny days...coming soon......



Have a wonderful, hopefully not rainy weekend,
Katarina

I LOVE the idea of pin tucking together different buttons and making a necklace out of them. Lovely!
