…these buttons? They are freaking adorable – I chose them painstakingly from a tub full of them at the V&A Museum of art and design in London (which is all sorts of awesome, and I will be blogging about it soon).

I have to admit, I might have searched for longer than I really needed too, because I just loved the quiet clinky-swish sound that the ceramic buttons made as I pushed them around, searching for treasure.

But – what to make with them? Some thoughts:

  • I could make them into necklaces
  • Sew them onto one of my bags
  • Give them away as-is to some of my seamstress friends
  • Make them into magnets to stick on the fridge

I have to admit, the jeweller in me is leaning towards the necklace option. What do you think, folks?

P.S. Does anyone else dig museum and art gallery shops as much as me? They always seem to be full of endlessly fascinating and funky things!

P.P.S. I just discovered while writing this post that the V&A have an online shop! Someone take my Paypal away from meee….
