I am loving these colours and the combinations

To me they are 

bright, 

but more of a vibrancy, 

happiness, 

clarity

 Some are limited designs unless everyone must have them then I can get more cut from the huge file of creations I have done

or

Sewing accessories, using buttons as the cover on a needle holder, or added to an applique, stitchery 

Exciting waits this week for new cards for some button packaging...

As one of my close friends who crafted with me at markets said yesterday, this is so not you but it is as she referred to florals & brightness. Of course that is exactly it !!

***

New book for me is coming from Amazon Au 

Zakka Home by Sedef Imer 

featuring a gorgeous project with the multi colours of the strawberries on the book cover. 

Which leads in to say the

will be available from next week....

Plenty of stock is due in Friday

This leads me to new design first cuts are also travelling today to reach me by Friday I hope...I saw 2 of the cuttings on line yesterday as couple of adjustments were needed...

Gorgeous...One is the Christmas Shop window

inspired by my collection of shops on my pinterest page ….

I am eagerly waiting to see the 

Paris Apartment buttons with flowers at the front of the 3 story high apartment.
