Bitten by the Button(alia) ...
For the past few months I have been collecting buttons for knits completed, (some years old that have never, ever had buttons – until now), knits I am presently working on and planned knits for the little people during 2012.
Since my blog post last May when I first discovered Buttonalia, I have squirreled away some gorgeous buttons, slipping them into project bags on arrival from the
So I thought I’d give another heads-up on a fabulous Etsy store – Buttonalia.
I don’t know what I would do without Sharry’s buttons. I simply love them. I realise there are lots of other buttons ‘out there’, but for myself, personally, Sharry’s buttons suit my style.
I recently discovered an article on Sharry and how she actually makes her beautiful buttons. You may like to read it here.
When visiting Buttonalia, check out her husband’s art - a couple of very talented people sharing their craft with the world.
Oh and look how beautifully the buttons are packed. It's like opening a present each and every time!

What a lovely article. I loved reading about the process of making the buttons. I have added Buttonalia to my Favourites, thank you!!
What a dedicated artist! And oh what fun you are having with those buttons. Thanks for sharing.
The Christmas box hasn't arrived yet, but you know how customs can be.
Maybe next year I'll just send you a few pounds of buttons, and you and the kids can spend hours sorting and organizing. ;-)
