I am a fabric addict and I kept seeing gorgeous designs in vintage silk ties and wanted too save the fabric from being lost I thought the print size and details would make great buttons and here we are with a selection of lovely unique buttons that I hope will be enjoyed and will give a second life to.

Full description

This design is of Ladybirds on a dark blue background. They are made from a vintage silk tie that came printed with Ladybirds and white Daisy flowers. The buttons made from the flowers are listed separately.

These unique button were handmade by me in upcycled pure silk fabric gleaned from a vintage tie. I am selling them in sets of 6, the buttons photographed may vary as to the exact positioning of theLadybirds. I have 3 sets of these 6 buttons. Check out the several different patterned buttons I am listing and I am happy to combine postage when different designs are ordered together.

Please email me with any questions of for an overseas postal quote.

All buttons have fusible interfacing to add to the grip for security between silk and metal button backs. They are on a 2 hole 'flat' metal backing plate. The image of the back may not be the button listed but it will be the same as the button you will receive, I use this style of button throughout when crafting my buttons, it simply saves a little time photographing that's all!

Ready to adorn your project, or the perfect gift for discerning button buyers or collectors. Please sponge clean or hand wash.

They measure 2.5cms/1 inches across both approx.

These are pure silk buttons These are unique to me buttons so when they are all sold there can be no more.

I made these and several other designs for my annual village craft fair, loved making them and hope they go to great homes where they will be used and admired.

Designed by Shelagh Ovalau Lind in Lancashire
