The Button Lady

To some customers I am not known for my Hair Accessories, Tutu's, or even my earrings. I am not known for my choices in Ribbon or the Artistic talent I put in to creating my items. I am just known as "The Button Lady". Mostly for my unique choices in the buttons that I use on my hair accessories. Where as most Boutique's will add bottle caps or tie a knot, I use buttons. Not just on my Hair Accessories though, but also on my post earrings and Tutu's.

I love the inspiration a new bag of mixed buttons gives. From that moment you pick it up in the store and wonder what kind of surprise you will find inside...to that moment when you bring it home and open it up to sort it. It's a wonderful feeling to be inspired by something as simple as a button.

And sometimes there's more than just buttons in the bag. Sometimes there are beads, flatbacks, glittery surprises, gems...All kinds of things. There's also the packs of buttons that I put on my best selling Bows.

So, the next time you see a button laying around think about all the wonderful people in the world that, that button inspires.
