Smiling

I know that fabric flowers are nothing new to DIY, but making something for the first time yourself is always new, and fun. I made this one to sell at the craft fair (didn't sell, although lots of people picked it up). Wish I'd remembered to clear out that little bit of hot glue from the center before I took these pictures.

I made this next one to wear at the craft fair, and I totally fell in love with it. The combination of eyelet lace and a vintage button (from my grandma's button stash) just makes me smile.

The fact that I have three more of these buttons also makes me smile.
I hope you have a wonderful week, filled with the things that make you smile. We're moving next Sunday, and this morning we adopted a puppy (more on her soon). So much to do!

I really like the eyelet one - I just pinned it.

These are so pretty! I have so many buttons around my house and this would be a great (and pretty) use for those!
