Vintage Buttons

We love vintage buttons for the obvious reason that they don't make it like that anymore. Huge ones with gold gilded around the edges or just the odd-shaped indent for the thread to go through. The best place to look for vintage buttons? Flea markets. Good for you if they match. If they don't, well, its always a case of DIY isn't it? There are a thousand and one uses for that vintage button! What would you use that vintage button for? Drop us a comment and let us know! We would love to have your ideas :)

While we're on the topic, here are some vintage buttons we converted into earrings. We're posting more up, so keep clicking back! Oh and did we mention that its free postage?! Just email us the item you want and we'll send a reply to you in no time!

Hi Suite stuff. Just love your beautiful Shoppe so sorry you're moving out of the hip Haji Lane. Know you will find another great spot for your vintage suities though.

I too am a collector(hoarder) of vintage buttons, Like the ones in the pics I've used them to make earrings necklaces, bracelets, to adorn presents, or just simply to sit in a jar and be loved.
