I Love BUTTONS Gallery

[mamarose22]

Not only did Julieboolie make such nice stuff, and send me fabulous buttons, she's also a terrific photographer.

Judging by her rose photo I'd say she is, too! She did such a great job on her swap and I'm so sorry the picture didn't make it in one piece.

I always tell people when they pack stuff for the post office, picture them playing football with it...gives you an idea of how much padding is needed.

This is my sweet loot from animegirlie:

First... all of my stuff:


Close-up of the buttons:


These buttons are magnets... so cute:


A granny square scarflette. There is a button in the middle of each:


A cute journal:


A brooch and 2 pair of earrings:


My favorite, the brooch. I love it!!


Thanks again for everything. It is all great and perfect for me!

Ooo! I wanna sort through those buttons, can I? Huh?! Huh?! (drats) Love it all but yeah, that brooch is button heaven!

I received from my lovely partner HelenM this morning!  Enjoy the giant photos everyone


Yummy buttons (visually yummy, I didn't put them in my mouth!).  I said I liked novelty buttons, so there's an apple shaped one, one with a little girl on, one with a bee, a cotton reel, and the best button ever a pencil sharpener!! 


CUTE knitted flower brooch


Notebook with this figure picked out in cool star-shaped buttons (looks like a mermaid to me)


And this neat (neat as in ordered and precise) button bracelet that I LOVE and am wearing now - it fits perfectly.

Thank you HelenM!!!

Sew glad you liked everything sewingLori!!! I had a BLAST making it. I think I have some in progress shots that I'll post on my blog at lunch

ooooh those striped and dotted buttons are BEAUTIFULLL! lovely. that bracelet looks really good. and i see a mermaid too.

[HelenM]

I'm glad Littlebluegirl liked everything. The mermaid started out as a swooshy thing, then I realised that it looked a bit mermaidish so I made it into one! From the picture it sadly looks like the left hand button of the mermaid has come loose again. I had repaired it but posting items can have that effect, it would seem!

I think I'll be making more of those bracelets - lots of fun to make 

Thanks for all the kind words, by the way.
