Guilty Pleasures: Buttons/Pins {Project Edition}

I have been going through my doo-dads and a pretty sizable collection of buttons popped out. I have always had a thing for them, and have hauled them around with me, only to gather more.

When the time comes to perhaps purge some of them I get all sentimental and don't want to part with any. I had one of those moments a couple of days ago. I then remembered this little project that I saw on some long forgotten webby...

Basically you take a frame, some fabric and glue it onto the frame {I used a glue gun}, and voila:



This will only help me so far, but I will hold off on the purge a wee while longer. ;)

Sláinte!

Great idea! I too have a tendency to hoard these and I hoard not many things! I think it's cos they're small...

I used to have a badge maker, which was lethal!! I sold my half to my sister, whom I shared it with, when we moved :D
