cute as a button

I fell in love with fabric-covered pushpins when I made them for my swap partner. Now I'm getting ready to give button makeovers to my old shirts.

Since some of you asked, I thought I'd direct you to Your Heart Out. We posted a how-to yesterday, which included other ideas like ponytail bobbins and magnets, too.

Such a brilliant idea. Please post pictures of your re-invented shirts!

so I went out and bought the buttons to cover last night, and made thumbtacks and hair ties. even though I created some beauties, I managed to stab my finger with a thumbtack and turn my hands red from pushing the backs of the buttons on. oh, how it pays to have beautiful work. :)
