One of my most favorite memories is when I was little, sitting on my Grandma’s kitchen table, stringing buttons from her button jar. This post reminded me of those special days. 🙂

Love these ideas!! Seeing how I cannot sew on a button that stays, I think I’ll focus on the no-sew button projects. LOL

I love the mirror in the middle! We’re the buttons set in resin? I’ve been wanting to do this but haven’t figured out how I want to go about it. Thanks!
