Weekend Workout 21 - Button It

Hello, my name is Eleanor, and I have a button drawer. :)

For weekend workout number 21, I challenge you to use buttons. Anywhere. Anyhow.

Here's my button love, it's a framed piece, or it will be when I find just the right frame (I know, I'm always saying that, lol) hopefully it will be framed before my pearl wedding anniversary in 2013.

Do you have plenty of buttons? Here are mine:

Do show us what you do with yours!

Hiya it's Jayne here.

I am showing two things made using quite a few Buttons. I made a scrapbook layout a while back, I just love the texture of all the cream buttons on the moon... The little Alien was drawn by my youngest daughter.  :)

 

I also made this card for Christmas last year & it's great if you want to use up a lot of Buttons... I like the pastel colours but you could use more 'Traditional' colours if you liked. It is very simple but effective. I don't recommend posting it though as it is a little heavy !

My button stash is small. Just enough to fill a jam jar but they're all unique. Id like to collect more to do little crafts like this. I saw a beautiful button belt on pinterest the other day which is very me. X

I have a lifelong love (addiction)for buttons. On a wet Sunday at my Gran's, I used to be given her button tin to play with and it is such an abiding memory of childhood in the 1950's, that I cannot resist buying buttons whenever I see them! I love to put them on cards and scrapbooking.

I love Buttons, I have soooo many projects using them. They were all the rage once and have gone a little out of fashion but i will always love them. I too played with my nans button tin :)
