button by button


Progress is definitely being made on the white button wreath.


It's a lot of white. I felt compelled to switch it up with the thread color. I've limited the palette to pink, red, blue, and green. As much as I love white, I'm a girl who needs a little color in her life.

Do you know what eleven pounds of white buttons looks like?


 If you find yourself in want of a button wreath look what I spotted...

Find it at Ballard Designs.

I love button wreaths! I made an all white one many years ago and I love it, but I never have found the perfect place to display it. This post motivates me to find a spot for it.
