Wow these are lovely and I really like the idea of a challenge. I think I might do this for a few of my friends although it will not be from any shows. It will have to be what we have on hand. Thank you for sharing.

For those on a budget buying things like fabric is flushing money down the drain. For under £5 with a little time and effort, it is achievable.
The amount of times I have heard people say they cannot afford…

I’ve done this since childhood and you get some great finds along the way. One tip I’d share is that when you take the buttons off thread them together. That way you’ll always have a set of buttons together. Great article
