Organizing Buttons
Nothing earth-shattering here, but I did get my buttons all sorted and put into little jelly jars. No expense here, since I already had the jars in the pantry, scraps of fabric (who doesn't??), and some interfacing. I'm sure you could use cardboard or scrapbooking paper, but I just sandwiched some fusible heavy-weight interfacing between fabrics that matched the color of the buttons in the jars, pressed, then stuck them in the rings. As you can see, it was super easy. I did use pinking shears around the edge of the fabrics so it wouldn't fray. I like this clean, crisp look better than poofs of fabric sticking out of the lid.
I know how random this post is, but just had to stop and do some organizing. Drives me nuts when I have to dig for things...like a turquoise button among 500 other colors.
Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!!
