OK, bit of a misleading title, but there is relevance, I promise. Remember this dress? Yes, the hilariously awful one. Well, I have been very miserly about using the rest of the buttons from the dress, as I just love them so. Although I'm pretty sure the dress was an early 80s number, the buttons have such a gorgeous psychedelic feel to them - more 60s or 70s I'd guess. Anyway, they are among my favourites in my button collection, so I've been hanging onto them.
Until now! How could I resist pairing them with this fabric?
So this little number has gone into the shop. For some weird reason I would love to know where these buttons end up. I imagine they have seen a lot - and hopefully they will see a lot more now!
Well, a lot more than sitting in one of my button jars anyway :)
Have a great week everyone!

They are great buttons, they look like sweets. Have you been tempted to lick them and check?
Oh brave you for parting with those buttons, they are quite wonderful! (I hadn't seen that picture of the dress before...it's special!). x
