Tidy buttons
I spent way too much time sorting my buttons this morning. But now they ARE sorted and that is very nice! Seeing I don't really use a lot of buttons - you don't need a lot of them on a crochet blanket, eh? - I've decided to only keep the ones that I really love or can actually see myself needing/using.
The rest h a v e t o g o. Eek. Getting rid of a craft stash?! Was there ever such a thing?! I guess so. If you would like this pile of buttons (325 grams!! = 11.5 ounces/0.7 pound) offer me a swap or gimme £2 for the postage (UK 2nd class).
Most of them are neutrals: black, white, brown, navy. But there are other ones in there as well. Fabric covered, metal, might be some mother-of-pearl. Probably vintage ones as well as a lot of these have come from my mum and grandma + Tony's mum.
Later edit: so, a few of you have expressed an interest in the buttons - what do I do now?! Split it between ya? What would you do?Labels: stash-busting, swaps
