Button Bags in Handbag Packets

Button Badge in packet
I’ve had these large buttons for ages and thought it was about time I used them.

There’s nothing fancy about the idea, all I’ve done is stick a brooch fastening on the back with super glue.

It’s often the packaging that can sell a craft item so I thought I would put the badge/brooch in a little handbag made from a narrow cello bag, embellished with a topper, stickers and ribbon.
I have made the topper with just a small scrap of card, scored and folded in half, and then cut off the corners

  2. A fab idea.....do you mind if I use it for a charity sale?? We have been donated a shed load of buttons and this would help use them up :)

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.
