Someone once said -

"There comes a time in your life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it. You surround yourself with people who make you laugh. Forget the bad, and focus on the good. Love the people who treat you right and pray for the people who don't. Life is too short to be anything but happy. Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living." Amen

Button Button Whose Got the Buttons???


How cool are these button designs...I love buttons and there are so many different designs to use like the ones in the photo or use your immagination and let it go wild. :)

These Victorian buttons make beautiful necklaces and bracelets...by Frances Casey

Here's one full of immagination
And some perfect Summer buttons to use for your creations, I love watermellons they are so colorful

Oh this is my next project I love these Button Indian Corn napkin holders....aren't they cute!!!

And wouldn't this be a great box to give a friend for their birthday? Just fill with a little button bracelet or necklace...how cute is that???

And here's a whole napkin set... :)  

And for another unusual gift give them a button covered teacup!!!

What you'll need:
Solid colored teacup with saucer
Assorted decorative buttons and beads of different shapes, sizes, and colors.
Hot glue gun and glue sticks.
Tweezers

How to make it:
Make sure the teacup is clean before beginning.
Use the hot glue and glue all of the buttons and beads onto the surface of the teacup. You can just do the top half or the whole cup if desired.
Continue to glue buttons and beads to the saucer as well.
Use the tweezers to help you place the beads and buttons on the cup. This will prevent you from getting burned, and will make it much easier

This is not made with buttons but I liked this idea for the summer time and beach...A cooler bag
