Alphabe Thursday B is for Button
I like buttons simple because they have round cheerful faces. Jewels without the harsh facets (?) As a dressmaker I go to great lengths to buy the correct one! I have a small collection that I have accumulated over the years. I like to tip out and sort through, sewing my favourites onto a canvas into a picture. I always remove them from clothes before I put them in the rag bag. If the clothes are fit to go to to a charity shop; which often isn’t the case I replace the pretty buttons with not such nice once! That is a guilty pleasure!!
So this week’s nursery rhyme is perfect for me
Buy any Buttons’
Buttons, farthing a pair,
Come, who will buy them of me?
They are round and sound and pretty,
And fit for the girls of the city.
Come, who will buy them from me?
Buttons, a farthing a pair.

I love buttons too and try not to buy them for no reason. You’ve given me an idea, though: sew them in my art journal! Shouldn’t take up “too” much room in the book! {:-D
