Cute As a Button

I have amazing friends.

Really, I do!

This is what my friend Jayce made for me.

It was inspired from a trip to Te Papa, where they have an exhibit about fashion through-out the century.  In one of the displays was a button bag.  And Jayce’s idea was born.

The stats:

• 4 months to make.  All the buttons are hand sewn on.  Yikes!  Not only that, each one has been sealed on the front and the back to keep any from coming loose.
• 1.5 kg of buttons.  Now you understand why it took 4 months
• Many swear words were apparently uttered during it’s making.

Jayce, thank you.  It’s just divine!
