I ♥ LOVE ♥ Buttons Swap Round 3 GALLERY

[TroubleT]

I wasn't sure I'd ever find my camera. I went through every piece of luggage and of course, it was in the very last bag.

Here are my goodies from WildBird!

First, a picture of the entire package...



She sent me 2 bars of dark chocolate (this gal did her T research! ) , a button Hoopla with the Japanese symbol for Peace in kanji, a set of button flower hair clips that my daughter really would like to get her hands on,  a DMC thread cutter (which I needed!), button stitch markers for my crochet and a huge haul of buttons!

Closeup of my new buttons. I put some of my faves in the very front.



THANK YOU WildBird! I love it all!

I wasn't too sure about the hoop so I'm glad you liked it. It was my very first hoopla!!  I had to redo the kanji symbol three times as I kept messing up on it. Such a simple thing but not for me...oh no.

Thanks for the great swap T and to our wonderful organizers....Thank YOU!

I do love my hoop and it means even more to me since it's your first.

I found the perfect hot summer afternoon activity for my 5 yr old. I had bought an organizer box for my DH for his little computer bits but he said he didn't need it. I had my daughter dump all of my buttons out on the coffee table and sort them by color. When she finishes one color, she gets to put them in the box. She has worked for the last 20 minutes playing with the buttons while sorting and telling me that she wants this sparkly one or this pretty pink flower button. Yay for busy hand tasks!

An amazing button bouquet!!


And a button stash set, one of which is buttons made by her dad, who does historical reinactments and designs buttons and jewelry. These are his own hand carved molds and cast in pewter!!!


It is all amazing!

That was my first time carving a stamp, so I'm sorry that it's a bit wonky.

More great hoops and jewelry and how awesome is that purse?  I was hoping someone would use buttons as tentacles...
