My Badges

As promised in my last post, I’m going to do a quick ‘show and tell’ of the badges I made using my ‘Button Factory’ kit. 

I attached the fabric to the badges, then thought I could make them even cuter by sticking a teeny-tiny button on each one.  You know me and buttons!!!


Here they are close-up:









My favourite’s the orange and white spotty one with the turquoise button (in the top photo).  Which one do you like best?

Making them was such a lot of fun!  The only problem is.....  I got a bit carried away and I’ve run out of metal badge bits already.  If anyone knows where I can get some more from, please let me know..... 

Just before I go, I want to excuse myself a bit.  I know I haven't been posting as regularly as I usually do over the past few weeks.  We've been having issues with the screen of our laptop (it doesn't work any more)..... we tried to get it fixed but couldn't, trying to make do using the laptop attached to another screen, got very frustrated, away visiting family, bought a new laptop, can't put 'Word' and all that useful stuff on it until we get home, need to sort something out for editing photos on it.....  So, we're all a bit up-in-the-air with computer things at the moment.  Hopefully, everything will be sorted out soon and I'll be able to get back to my normal routine of posting and visiting you all more regularly.  Until then, please forgive me and keep on stopping by to say "hello"!

Hugs, 

Carly

  9. Too stinkin' cute!! I can't pick a favorite... it's a tie between the yellow/grey, blue/red and blue/orange combos haha!
    Have you checked etsy for them? I think that's where my sister has bought them from before... I will see if I can find what seller she got them from.

    Hope you have a great week!
