even when I have paid for them :o). I love how Sarah wraps everything, it feels like Christmas every time I make an order! I put in a small order at paper-and-string for some lime green buttons, Ebi-kun picked them, they have to be sewn onto everything ready for yochien. It seemed like a good excuse to get some cute dotty orange buttons for me and some giant rik-rak, which I have no idea what I am going to use it for.

And, thank you for all the well wishes, still snotty but I am planning a sewing session this afternoon when the boys are out!
Maybe use them on a bag/purse....you could use them alone, or put a ruffle of fabric behind to make a sort of flower..... Or, you could glue one onto a wide headband and wear them that way. Hope that helps!
ReplyDeleteLovey buttons and sweet packaging!
ReplyDeleteoh, use the giant buttons to close a purse with! you know, like that one on the cover of bend the rules sewing?!
ReplyDeleteI love parcels too :-) I just got one from a swap partner, and am getting all the odds and ends together for the packages I'm sending right now. Isn't snail mail great??
ReplyDeleteGlue a pin to the back and you have one awesome brooch!
