I wonder if buttony is even a word? If its not it should be ;)
What a difference a day makes - Wednesday was gorgeous, sunny and sandal weather - Thursday has been much cooler and sandals have been put away and warmer clothes sort out.
I popped into town this morning to post some letters and of course the lure of the CS's was too strong. There's one in town that closing for a few weeks for a refit and its selling everything off at £1 or less. Today's bargain was all these buttons (and a few more) for just £1;
When I got home, the postie had been and there was a parcel for me :). It was from my lovely mad friend Traci over at My handmadehappiness, I'd won her fabric giveaway the other week - thanks to little Finn for picking my name out :) A gorgeous (huge) piece of Michael Miller fabric and some pretty buttons too. Thanks Traci (and Finn);
I'd love to show you what I've been making this week but I can't :( Its for swaps. Am making good progress with those, I've sent my magazine swap parcel to the USA and tomorrow I shall be sending my pincushion swap parcel to Maria @ Me and Ma tomorrow - just finished wrapping it up.
That just leaves my Pumpkin Patch Autumn/Halloween swap parcel to finish and of course my birthday giveaway mystery parcel needs a few more things added to it ;)
See you soon

I would have bought those buttons too. When I am in England my idea of a good day out is to go CSing (new word for me) with my sister. Here in Canada we call then thrift shops....one goes thrifting.
I truly think photos of thrifted buttons should be banned in blogland, due to them making me very envious indeed! I need buttons to survive!! And all those for only 1 pound?!!
Blessings,

Love your button bargain - you lucky girl! Sounds like you've had a busy week! X
I think Buttony should be a word - it is much nicer than some of the words that get into the OED each year!!!

You've just invented a new word...love it!
Great parcel you received.Have a lovely relaxing weekend. :o)
You just can't beat a buttony day!
Of course buttony is a word. I can see it written in your blog...! Ax
Lovely buttons, a bargain for £1. Also that green and pink fabric is really nice.
great for one pound ! I'm working in a CS one afternoon a week & a dirty old tupperwear box came in - filled with buttons so I bought it quickly !
OOOOh Buttons! i love buttons too - lucky you! xx
From a fellow button lover! I think buttony should definitely be in the dictionary!
