With the stress from my son in the house, I immersed myself in my buttons this past weekend and got this one done! What a blessing this has become for me. Not just the OT anymore. It's my way to escape!

Great job! Where do you find all the buttons you need?

People have donated them to me. Sometimes people will post online they have a tin or jar to sell and I've purchased them. I have so many now that I don't buy them anymore but I sure take donations!

mrsmike I'm sorry your stressed. I absolutely LOVE what you can do with buttons you are an artist.

Is there a cat around that will pose? I'm an animal lover I go both ways - dogs/cats :)

Take Care of You

I have done several cats so far. I am more of a cat person but others like dogs. I love doing all critters though!

OMG! This is amazing!!! What a talent you have! I have a passion for buttons. I inherited my mother's and grandmother's button boxes and there are some real treasures in them.

I have posted them as I've gotten them done. Won 1st prize for one! I have a woman who promotes art for disabled people who wants me to work up enough so she can put on a show just for me! I'm floored! So far I only have 2 available. Generally they sell as soon as I get them done!

That is amazing!. I know people work with glass and tile to make mosaics but I have to say I've never seen a button mosaic. You really have an eye for color. It is beautiful. I know your show will be fabulous!

Thank you! I had to come up with something that would work as occupational therapy for my hands. That's how I started! I think it's the only thing I can "thank" MS for!

Makes me wonder whatever happened to my Grandma's button bin. As a child, I used to love to sit on the floor in front of her old Cogswell rocker, and sort them, first by color, then by size.... Endless entertainment!

I started with my mom's/grandma's/... Now I have zillions! My daughter comes in my art room while I'm working and puts her hand in the jars and just sifts them through her fingers. (She's 21.)
