Buttons......
I have a table runner pattern (super simple) that calls for a button (decorative) on each end.....I am doing these runners for Christmas. I already have my fabric, but am in need of the buttons. Would like to find something in gold or with gold in it (no silver) due to fabric choices. Rather than google and search for hours on end, I figured that I would come to those who would know.... Thanks!

Re: Buttons......
I don't use many buttons. I'd just go look at Joann's.

Thanks.....nearest Joann's is 35 to 40 minutes away, at best. I try to save those trips for when I need more than one thing, although I am sure I could find more than just buttons once I got there!

Re: Buttons......
Be sure you take coupons to Joanns. Buttons can be expensive, especially if you need a bunch for projects. You could also try Etsy and search for bulk buttons.

Re: Buttons......
You could also try a thrift store and buy an article if clothing with buttons you like and use those!

Re: Buttons......
Misses.M I LOVE your idea! I tend to think that direction too, but then, I have a good thrift store very near to me.

Re: Buttons......
I have jars of buttons. Give me an idea of what size/style you want and I will see what I have in gold.

Walmart has big bags of single color or themed buttons for cheap. Just got a few bags. Michaels also has bags of buttons - not as cheap but not as "cheap" either.

Re: Buttons......
I have found the cutest buttons at a thrift shop . The clothing was in very poor shape, but the buttons were perfect (and cheap!)
