Has anyone seen these before?
I saw them advertised in a magazine and I'm tempted to make something specially so that I can use some.

So lovely but I have soooooo many buttons. Boring, plain buttons but I don't need to buy any more buttons. But those are sooooo gorgeous. Exit left muttering 'I don't need buttons'.......

So glad you posted that link, I bought a mans cream cable cardigan for myself last year with the specific intention of changing the buttons from dark brown wood to something a bit more feminine. I'll give that site a good browse later when I've got more time. Thank you  :thumb:

I have bought from there but if you want something a bit different then i can recommend Incomparable Buttons, from here and here
. You can wash your garment with the buttons on with no damage. I have used mice, cats, elephants, sheep and dogs.
Do a search on Etsy and it will bring up more designs although they are more expensive there.
Only downside is they come on cards of 5.
It's not easy being this perfekt

Ooh these are all lovely. I have a big box of buttons and have just stocked up on some wooden ones - which I hope are washable...
