rachelk Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I am desperately trying to find a small wooden birdhouse shaped button, and a small butterfly shaped one for a cross stitch picture that I want to do. Have spent a hopeless hour on the internet searching for them and can't find anything suitable. Has anyone got any secret supplier of such things??? Any help would be very gratfully recived, especially as I have bought everything else to do it and am now sad that I can't find the blooming things!!

chickenlicken72 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 I recently bought a wooden birdhouse button from this lady who has stands at most of the big quilt shows. Its not the best website but she has a stock of many many different button designs - she is very helpful at the shows so i am sure she could help over the phone. http://www.buttonlady.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 Might sound daft, but in a pinch, could you make your own from brown fimo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmommasally Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I know its a long time since you posted for help but I just found wooden birdhouse and butterfly buttons whilst browsing a site I hadn't been on before. http://www.daisychaindesigns.co.uk/ Even if you are sorted its a lovely site to bookmark for future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
