More Liberty

I had some fabric covered buttons made with the tiny little scraps of Liberty fabric I purchased from Etsy. I picked out patterns in blue and got fourteen adorable Liberty buttons.

I decided to make my M&S trench coat more 'springlike' - last autumn I embellished it with Harris Tweed covered buttons (thank you, Alison!) and I loved the result. For springtime, I've put on these beauties. Doesn't it look adorable?

I got the idea from Marie Claire Ideas magazine - they featured a gorgeous trench coat with Liberty buttons last autumn.

I ordered another lot of Liberty fabric this morning (Etsy again, a different seller this time). I'll keep you posted...

  4. Ha, ha tudi ti imaš navado menjat gumbe na oblačilih. Sama včasih kupim kaj in že v trgovini vem, kaj bom spremenila. Ti gumbi so fantastični!
    Zadnjič si me pobarala po kreativnih slo. blogih...verjetno poznaš blog pepermint in tam dobiš "taužnt" povezav in še več. Katjina sobica je ena taka stična točka, vsaj kar se tiče mojega klikanja.
