Is It Wrong?
Is it wrong for me to like buttons so much? I’m not sure where this huge desire for buttons comes from. I suspect it is with me because there were several years when I wouldn’t design with buttons at all because I never seemed to be able to get to the store and buy them. Now, every once in awhile, I will find a terrific deal on buttons on eBay and today is the day! Just check out the buttons I won on eBay. Woo hoo!
All from the same seller. What a find! And, don’t worry, I left SOME buttons for other buyers on eBay. 
Oh, and the eBay seller. Wonderful seller. Olive Antiques.

I LOVE buttons. I have recently become obsessed with them myself. Just last week I raided my grandmothers tin that she’s had ever since I can remember. Those buttons are fun because a lot of them have a story- she has buttons in there from things she wore as a young girl.
I like browsing the ones in the store- there are always cute ones- but they can be pricey.
Nice find on eBay!
Oh! And I love your designs! I’m getting ready to start your One-For-All pattern as a gift for a friends baby. Keep up the fabulous work!
Wow, all those great buttons will really inspire you!
Kim – it is perfectly normal, at least in my household. I don’t sew, and yet I have developed an incredible fascination with buttons. They’re so pretty to look at, sort and maybe someday actually use. My button supply is only surpassed by my yarn stash!
beautiful buttons! I have a hefty stash myself, caught a really great deal a few years ago when a craft store was going out of business. All button cards were 5/$1! Needless to say, I bought quite a few
