Button Bag

I have far too many buttons, but what should I do with them all?
Hessian BagButton Covered Bag
Well ……… I was given this bag a little while ago, I loved the shape and as the writing was only on one side I thought it could be covered up quite easily.

I used my glue gun to stick the buttons on as I thought it would give the greatest hold.
Button Close Up
It will be interesting to see how long they last, but I only intend to use it for my holidays and light shopping duties!

    What a lovely idea! I agree with resewn sally - you can never have enough buttons, but what on earth do you do with them all? You've solved the problem brilliantly!

    What a good idea, I have several bags with "writing" on them, what a great way to cover it up!! I have been making knitted brooches recently and scrounged buttons off everyone I know, so now I have quite a few, I can't wait to have a play. Thanks for the idea!!
    Luv L xx

    I hope my mum never sees this! LOL
    It is gorgeous though... were you not tempted to sew on all those buttons...?

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
