Buttons, Buttons, Buttons!

Are you a Nintendo,animae,manga or Japanese art items fan? Then you have come to the right place. Lauren's shop, Lost Mitten is the place to find buttons, crocheted items, Nintendo and other interesting objects of art. The buttons I chose to feature are a small sampling of Lauren's work. I was a Nancy Drew fan so I just love this button set. All button sets have pin backs and are mailed on the cardboard mitten you see above. Put these buttons anywhere; on a coat, hat, pocketbook, or any old place that makes you happy. Check out this interesting shop and don't forget to read Lauren's blog.

Best Friends Forever!

I chose these two pieces to feature from Andee's Celtic Goddess Jewelry Shop because both have special meaning to me. I gave my best friend the old fashioned heart verson of the best friends necklaces over 40 years ago and we both still have our piece and are still best friends. Andee's version is so much prettier than the ones we had. What a great gift!

I chose this one because I am a true Taurus. This necklace comes with a personal oil blend and soap.
