I like Buttons

I love buttons! They are such a simple, inexpensive embellishment but I love the dimension and warm feel that they add to a project. I have two stamped projects to share with you today.  I actually made them weeks ago but am just finding some time to share them now.I’m still on my home projects kick and the house is looking much more homey. I’m lovin it. Of course, my list and hubby’s list are still a few miles long but hey…baby steps! It’s hard to live in a constant renovation. Come to think of it, for the past twenty years, I can’t think of a time when we HAVEN’T been renovating.
