| Where do you buy your materials from??
I am after some cute buttons, and unusual materials, embellishments, etc. Not sure where to start. I have bought a couple of bits of material off ebay so far.

| I'm obsessed with buttons anyway, so right up my street. I've been making birdies out of the Cath Kidston book and they have buttons for eyes. So that is one legitimate use at least, the rest will probably just look pretty in my case! |
