Button Button....Check out the buttons!

I've been busy painting this spring and trying to add new designs to my button offerings on Esty! They are all hand painted by me and about  the size of a quarter - 1".. .All buttons are signed and dated on the back The buttons themselves are vintage mother-of-pearl 70-80 years old. There is a metal shank on the back of the button.


 I’d love to see one of my buttons find their way to your project They are lovely on needlework and made into jewelry......

    What a great focal point these would make.
