Inspiration - vintage flower buttons.

Cherry red, pressed celluloid flower buttons from the 30s. With a lovely hand carved look. Funny how some so small and simple and inspire a colour palette or a floral motif - it certainly has inspired me this morning . . . .

Vintage buttons from Surrender Dorothy.

Button up!

For $14 this is a great selection of vintage buttons. I blew the button on my fave pair of old jeans last week and used a vintage art nouveau brass button - I way prefer it. I should have ripped that old button years ago! These are from Dog Day Afternoons - can you see the tiny deer on one of the buttons - I'd buy them just for that one!
