Welcome to the debut of my monthly special feature for DeNami Design ~ Button Boutique!
I will admit I have a HUGE fondness for buttons and try to work them
into my card designs when I can. My plans for this feature are to
inspire you with projects using buttons in unique ways. Then transforming that idea into a card or tag! I have about a
million ideas floating around in my noggin, but I've narrowed it down to
six features. One a month from now through June. Lets get started shall
we...
When
I was in first grade one of my very best friends had mittens on a
string that ran through the sleeves of her coat. Now to the 6 year old
little girl that I was I thought they were simply fabulous!!! Those
little wooly mittens dangling at the ends of her sleeves as we played
on the playground were the inspiration for my project. Honestly I don't think she ever wore those mittens!
I've taken these splendid DeNami products and turned them into this sweet little project!
The beautiful stamped image is from the ornamental centerpieces set.
I
am so pleased with the way these turned out and can see many uses for
them. Ornaments, garlands, wreaths or even the front of your card
designs! Look how absolutely sweet they look with my tiny skates!!!
Finally I transformed this idea into a card with the addition of the mini open button image!
Thanks for stopping by the Button Boutique today! You can find a beautiful assortment of buttons at the DeNami Design Store. I would love to see your button adorned mittens if you give
this project a go. Send me an email with your link and I'll stop by for a
visit! ~Lisa

Lisa this is a fabulous post and your mittens on a string turned out so perfect, love the way you added the buttons to the cuffs and then a sweet card too? Amazing job! I loved mitten on a string too.

Awww, now how sweet are those mittens?!? Such great texture with all the different buttons, and the soft colors! Love 'em, Lisa : )
Oh wow! TOTALLY smitten over your mitten(s)! GREAT job on these projects. I am swooning! Must 'pin' this. :)
Just adorable! I love the mitten idea. I don't have a mitten set, but you've shown that one isn't necessary. Very cool!
Oh, so perfectly sweet and dainty!!! LOVE the colors you chose, and turning one of those sweet little things into a card...genius, my dear...I love it!
Lisa this is so beautiful! I love mittens and I just adore these! Love the buttons, the snowflake and plaid and the little twine string along with your delightful memory! I too used to envy a little neighbor girl who had the string on hers...I never did! And I haven't seen them in the stores ever! Perhaps they are all handmade by some crafty grandmother somewhere! Thanks for this wonderful post...I will watch for the rest!
