I’m going Buttony…..


I have been immersed in buttons of late. The “Buttoned Up Books” that I delivered to Handmade Heaven on Tuesday had just about sold out, so I have stitched up a second batch and delivered them.

How cute are these little “Buttoned Up Clips”? I want to keep them all for myself! The buttons on these are some of my favorite vintage button finds!  They are also in stock now at Handmade Heaven.

I have also been working on some prototypes, there are “Buttoned Up Bracelets”. I have been wearing this the last couple of days and it has already got lots of excited comments, someone even offered to buy it right off my arm!

And “Buttoned up Magnets” these are just so sweet, Curly Guy thinks I should also make theses as little clips and brooches. Do you think they would sell? Maybe just for little girls? Are they too cute for big girls?
If you want one of the “Buttoned Up Books” or “Buttoned Up Clips” for your very own, don’t delay in contacting Handmade Heaven. They are all made with vintage buttons so they are one off pieces. The books may be a limited edition as I will run out of the books them selves soon, they were an op shop find and I haven’t been able to find the supplier. I shall keep searching, but I can’t guarantee I can do them for much longer.
Thanks so much for all of the comments of late, especially all of you who admitted your own button love and pointed me towards some great button blogs. It’s so great to find others who share your strange little passions! That’s all for me tonight off to sort out the new op shop buttons that I scored today.

  1. I think my favourite is the button clips ... but it is so hard to decide as they're all so good.
    Congratulations on your button books selling out :)

  2. Oh I just love all your buttony goodness! I have been on a bit of a button binge myself lately, so many vintage buttons & so much to do with them!

    I've made a couple of button bracelets too but they are different to that one, more like button charm bracelets! The hair clips are gorgeous....!

  3. I definitely think the button brooches will sell - brooches are huge rage at the moment - I would buy one if you stocked them in Handmade Heaven... so you have sold one already.. LOL
