Buttons...

 Button box - Car boot sale

Decorative jar - Handmade by daffodils & snowdrops

I love to collect buttons and picked up this old tin full of buttons at a very reasonable price from a local car boot. As well as being practical buttons can make quite decorative updates to simple house hold items...

Thread colourful buttons onto a piece of metal wire, attach around the neck of a glass jar and add a wire handle to make an attractive tea light or simply a decorative piece...
