Today I’ve impressed myself beyond belief with my crafting goodness! As it is mother’s day soon, I feel it’s about time I made an extra special effort for my mother bear. I’ve been brainstorming ideas all week, and failing miserably. And then one day last week I was customizing the vintage buttons on my cardigan, when I began to think of the beauty of the gold vintage buttons, and then that was it, it hit me! I had the idea of making something handmade and truly individual, and so I came to the idea making her a vintage gold button necklace. I couldn’t believe I’d thought of something so quirky, retro and special just like that! I mean it really is so simple. So once I’d gotten the chance I began the wild goose chase, searching for these retro buttons, and because I really wanted them to be authentic, I’d gone to town and back looking all over for them, I searched high and low for glass buttons, vintage buttons, gold buttons, military buttonsâ€the whole lot! But no such luck. Was it really too much to ask? Anyway, so I finally discovered the online company Spinsters Emporium, where I managed to order all of the vintage gold buttons, glass buttons and retro button. I was really impressed by the fact that everything I wanted was right there! It offers a wide range of everything crafty you could possibly ever imagine, from sewing patterns to vintage fabrics. I was really happy with their collection of vintage buttons and the craft packs that Spinster’s Emporium had to offer. I even bought myself a â€button it†pack to make myself a little something, when I received my â€button it†pack, I was happy to read that each and every single one of these fabulous vintage gold buttons had individually hand selected. I might not just stop at my mum this year, after discovering this wonderland of retro goodies I’m already planning a vintage patchwork quilt for my grandmother’s birthday. When I was young she taught me how to sew my buttons back on, and since then I’ve never stopped sewing. I think this would be the most ideal present for her, with the vintage buttons embellished within the retro quilt, It will be a lovely way to remind her of how grateful I am of her dressmaking knowledge she’s shared. And if she’s not completely happy with my efforts of a vintage patchwork quilt, I’m sure she’ll appreciate one of the craft packs.
