yay buttons! i splurged a little while back at this really cool shop on etsy called vintage necessities. i generally pick up my buttons at thrift stores and just around, but ever the sucker for bright colors and history, i could not longer resist these beautiful ones! i have them all labeled with what they are made of and what year they are from (so cool!) on flickr if you’d like to see.
we had a successful sweater ripping day yesterday and i’m proud to announce that four more adults (and three child helpers) have joined the sweater recycling ranks. it was lovely out so we did our ripping picnic style. our ranks are increasing and we now have almost enough people to take over the world…
