From the Author

Without a doubt, there's something about buttons that appeals to the child in each of us. So just what is it about buttons that inspires obsession? The attraction is twofold. Obviously, they serve a practical purpose but buttons are also fun little works of art and can be the epitome of style, actually 'making' an outfit.

As you embark on these button-filled projects, don't be afraid to experiment. Try substituting buttons of different colors or materials for the ones used by the designer. You can easily customize each piece in this book, so that the finished products accent your decor and enhance your wardrobe.
