I was lucky enough to find an add on a local site where a man was selling 25 lbs of vintage buttons that he found in a storage unit. There are some amazing buttons.
Lucky ! I'm jealous!
I need buttons for a quilt I am making please contact me.

Mrs. Cog! Thank you for sharing these sweet button ideas! I love your style so much and appreciate you taking the time to share your ideas with us! ❤️ XoXo
Oo I love um too! I have my gr gr aunts, my gr grams, my husbands gr aunts, collections! And I buy more at flea markets to imprint into clay charms I make. I'm addicted too☺️. I do use them too! My fav are teeny tiny men's shirt buttons from my grandfathers uniforms and my Dads army uniform buttons that his mom had saved. Treasures to me💗. Thanks for the ideas!!
Buttons really do add the perfect finishing touch so many times! So fun to see the video and a bit of your collection! Big hugs, Liz! ❤️
Very awesome button ideas and love 💕 your button collection!!!
I have a button addiction too lol. Oh! And I have a video on my little channel on how to sew ruffkes if you're interested. They are super easy and I just use a regular sewing machine foot. Love all yoyr little uses for buttons. Tge button cards are especially adorable! 😊💕
What lovely ideas for using buttons! You might like to get buttons by the pound from Home Sew in Bethleham PA. You can order online. Please do show us your button shelf! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your ideas. I really like the idea of stitching buttons to ribbon! I, too, have a love for buttons!
Love this. I love buttons too.Thanks for the ideas for how to use them and the links to the other designers. Take care.
Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family wishing you a blessed day.
Love me some buttons. My grandmother from Italy was a seamstress. My dad taught me how to sew and my first lesson was buttons. During WWII all 16 kids had to help mom with her alterations business. My mother on the other hand was born “with a gold spoon in her mouth” as the saying goes. So dad had to teach both of us to cook, sew and iron. I fell in love with buttons at a very young age. Love me some buttons. Can’t wait to see your little oasis called your art room! Thanks for sharing Liz!💕💐🧚♂️
Thank you for sharing your story CJ. I know you are proficient in old-school sewing. I only fake sew and quilt lol, around the edges of your art. I'd love to see YOUR craft/sewing area as well. Hugs!! :-)
Yay!!! Thank you for sharing these great ideas. I love buttons too. Hugs! 🤗🤗🤗
Love your work, journals, tutorials.. inspiring... I’m always looking for the next one!!!
I have hundreds of buttons and you ave given me some lovely ideas thank you.⭐️
Always love ur use of buttons, I try to use them but find sewing them on so tedious I usually glue them on, thanks for ur inspiration 😻
You would love my mother’s collection of buttons, I was just raiding her huge stash😉
Thank you Margie. I would LOVE to see your mother's collection of buttons. I can only imagine! Hugs! :-)
Oh yeah, love buttons, I was always into my grandmother's buttons. Thank you for the wonderful ideas💡 , loooove those gloves!! 💕
All great ideas and so lovely. Especially love the jump-ring button charm. TFS. 🤗
Instablaster.
Great ideas! A few of your ideas, I never thought, like sewing on a ribbon. Thanks!
so, Mrs Cog, where do I find the GoJo's please?
Buttons are so much fun and I love all the ideas you shared. I recently saw in a video where Jessica Rapp used a button at the bottom of the V on an envelope flap. I'm feeling inspired to use up my hoard of buttons!
Wonderful, informative and fun video. Thank you.
Wow thanks for all the great tips. I like buttons too.
I love this video, I learned a couple new uses for my buttons, and thank you so much for the shout out! I’m glad you Iike your tags. I think they have a Mrs Cogs feel to them! You rock! 💗
Very interesting ideas, it's fantastic the way you used them in different projects. Thanks for sharing.
Great ideas. Fun video. Thanks
Great ways to use buttons Mrs. C ! Perhaps one day you could cover the entire front of a journal in buttons... a button journal sort of thing... Loved this, thanks for sharing.
Good ideas as always. My daughter is a button collector and has every color shape and size. I will be sharing your ideas with her.
i love bottons!!! I love different ways to use it ,thank you for your informative video!!
I love buttons! Thank you for sharing these great ideas for using them.
I love buttons too and have quite a lot. Thank you for your ideas. ;)
This was wonderful...TFS. I'm not a button girl 😁...but I will try a few of these ideas.
I've collected buttons for over 40 years and have been thinking about adding some to my journals. I'd really like to see a tutorial on how best to attach a button as a closure on a journal, ie are they sewn onto the covers, hot glued, or how exactly to attach them securely. Another button lover, yay!
I just LOVE buttons! Like you, I have more than I'll ever use, but I'm always on the hunt for a jar of old buttons at a good deal! My favorite idea that you mentioned was sewing buttons onto a ribbon! Brilliant! Then you can attach them in so many more places. Thanks again for the inspiration.
Great ideas...thank you!💕❤
Thank you so much Liz. Those buttons are really awesome.....I thought 💭 I had a lot, but your collection is awesome xx Mags
This is a fabulous video love all the unique ideas and I'm going to run with them. I to love buttons and have way to many but its fun to collect them. Thanks for sharing
Perfect timing as I just got a hoard of buttons 😍 TFS 😍😇 💕
I just received a whole bunch of colorful buttons from my daughter-in-law, who decided she wasn't going to be able to have time to use them (our 2 grandchildren are 3 and 2). So she just brought over her 3 storage sorters and a small container full of buttons to me. I wasn't sure what I was going to be able to use them all for. NOW you've given me some great ideas!!! Thank you so much! These ideas will be a great way to not have the buttons just sit in my stash but be able to come out and be used.
Great ideas! I just saw where someone used buttons along the edge of a page, kind of like you would add lace, they used wire and wired the buttons on. I saw it on Pinterest...GREAT ideas!
LOVE your jars, mine are in jars but not as pretty as yours. Thank you for sharing you ideas with us Liz xxx
I love all your button ideas!!!!☺️
Every single idea is adorable!
you could make a THICK shaker element and use buttons in it instead of beads or glitter, etc! I LOVE buttons too!
Thank you Mrs.Cog!!! I love buttons too. I have a lot. I try to keep them organized by color. I have a jar of just white! Thanks for all your ideas. I will sure use them in my crafts. Have a
wonderful day! ~Liz~
So beautiful and inspirational.
Love buttons....tfs
New subbie here, love your button ideas! 😊🌸

Howdy, Mrs. Cog! Thanks for sharing all your lovely ideas for using buttons in junk journals! Just had to watch... I bought 3 jars and 1 bag of vintage buttons at the Flea Market this week! Blessings & Bubbles...oooOOO
Thank you for sharing the ideas...Hugs :)
Thanks for the great ideas! And I love your work.
Fun ideas for all those buttons!
Love buttons too❤️
All of my buttons came from discarded clothing. Plus new clothing when extra buttons are included.
A crazy quilter that likes making journals. It's an easy transition.
Thankyou for this selection of button uses...I am very much like you and have a massive selection of buttons..I have already used a couple of your ideas..but this has given me so many more ideas...thanks..CHEERS😊
Absolutely love your videos tfs x I have a pleating foot for my sewing machine to do pleated ruffles you can get them for most machines.. I use mine all of the time.. hope that helps? X
Thanks for the ideas 😊🌸💞 I have so many buttons, that I was running out of ideas.
What are your comment or a said everything that I feel too what a wonderful video so many good ideas thank you for sharing the buttons you are so imaginative and such a great teacher thank you
I have TONS of buttons.. true addiction and I would love to use them in JJ projects.... if I could make myself part with them.😥
Love your ideas. I stumbled onto your channel through Gayle Agostinelli. Thank you both. Great inspirational ideas
LOVE LOVE LOVE the buttons on gloves idea!!! I'm going to make a few pairs for a few friends as a Fall gift! ❤️ 🌿
some great ideas for buttoning up :) I inherited my gran's button tin as I loved to play in it as a child sorting the colours & Pop started me counting with buttons. I op shopped for buttons when I was claying to use them as stamps into the soft clay and now I will recycle them into journals....thanks for sharing ....I love buttons
Really fun ideas!
I’m in admiration of your work..it’s so precise, thoughtful , and beautiful. Thank you for sharing .✨
Thanks! You are indeed the "Queen" of buttons. I have two large tins (from both my husband's and my side of the family), as well as buttons I have picked up at Joann's, etc.. I really need to spend more time "sorting". I admire your patience... Some good ideas here!
I love buttons too. There is something so therapeutic running your fingers through a pile of buttons. I have a cardboard Banker's Archive box full of buttons. I still have a lot to sort through, and I just love doing it, if only I had more time. Soon I hope. Thank you for sharing all your ideas to use buttons, love them. Thanks!
Love all your videos.So instructive and inspiring. I too have wanted to know how to do pleating. Funny thing just went on home page and there was a live tutorial by Tsunami Rose "Sewing Lace and fabric Pleaded Scrap trim. Worth a watch.Interesting and genius how she does.Thanks for so generously sharing your creative talents.
As fabulous as those buttons are I’m even more in love with the bottle they are in!!!! Where can one find that bottle????
Thanks Leslie! The jar is a fat 1/2 gallon Ball jar I found at Walmart a few years ago. They carry many different specialty jars from Ball there each year. :-)
Yeah, I haven’t seen it at Walmart but just the smaller ones. Maybe they might have them on their online store. Thank you so much!!!!!
I have buttons from my father's U.S.Postal uniform, he worked there in the 30's. Not sure what I will do with them. Nothing probably. I just thought. I could create a little book with all those old pictures of my ancesters and attach the buttons they wore.
I have a collection of both of my Grandmother's buttons. Thanks for a few new ideas....especially the button cards! Please, please, please do a tour of your craftroom......would love to see where you create all of your beautiful items and maybe get some storage ideas!!
I just love all the different ways you used your buttons. Come next spring I'm going to have some gardening gloves with buttons :) I have oodles of buttons but I'm saving them lol.... not anymore!!
I have a black piece of fabric (12 x12) with a backing that my grandmother sewed various buttons on. I just found it in a box yesterday and took it out to hang up in my craft room. There are a few missing so will go thru my stash of old buttons. Got a bunch from my mom plus antique store years ago.
HeyLiz, just love your video's and love your style too I am going to use a lot of [wooden]buttons on my next journal[also onto the spine] it is my third official custom made journal so that is very exiting for sure, I am Arrabella from the Netherlands I just pusched the bell cause I did not get a notification for this video so well now I can keep it up lol
I love buttons. My husband says I have 10000.Thanks for some great ideas.
Ha! I bought buttons today at the Op-shop…because, you know, I million buttons isn’t enough! x
А у меня дедушка работает на гуталинной фабрике. Каждый месяц присылает посылки с гуталином. Прямо не знаю куда девать?
So fun. I have some vintage buttons from my grandmothers button box. As kids we loved to play with the buttons, and that continued into adult hood lol! _ Becky
Oh! I saw a button in your jar just like one that I have. It was a coat button. Hard to describe the color, sort of orangey, tan, khaki color. Not very pretty just a big coat button. I only have one. I'm not asking for another - I don't need it, I just thought it was a coincidence.
Oh my goodness! I LOVE buttons too. So cool thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing some very inspiring ideas and ways to use buttons! This reminded me of when I was little and playing "Button Button who's got the button" with my mom and some friends. simpler times back then.... I've glued buttons to paper clips, like you do with pennies. Buttons are the best!
Love these ideas for organizing and embellishing with buttons! Very helpful and inspiring! Love the Go Jo's!! TFS!☺
Oh, I love vintage buttons. I want to know where you found that large Ball canning jar. I really want one.
I've got my mother's plus both of my grandmother's buttons.
I love buttons too - I think we all do? but I don't have nearly as many as you do, lol. Loved your little tour around the button world. Thank you.
When you learn how to gather(?) the lace using sewing machine would mind doing a video to teach us how to do it so we can all learn together? Thank you for sharing your amazing journals.
Love buttons !! They are such fun !! TFS !!
I've saved so many pretty buttons over the years....now I know what to so with them....thank you.💛
I have a ton of modern and vintage buttons. Most of which I picked up at a yard sale. These are great ways for me to use some up!
That patchwork bag is beautiful! You mentioned before your love for buttons. It’s real!!! But you do a good use of them.
Everyone would love to have a jar like the last one. Put your hand inside and pull out a bunch of colorful buttons in all shapes and sizes.
I love how you incorporate buttons in your different journal areas. You have a great knack for matching the button colors to what you attach them to and they really add a lot to the overall look. 👍🏻💖
Such great ideas! Thank you for sharing them with us! 💓
Thank you for sharing! Now I have a reason for buying more buttons!💕
Great fun to watch love your button’s💜💜so sweet of you to admire and show off other’s projects💜
Love, love buttons also. Your ideas are so nice. Tfs!!!!🤗🤗
Thank you for the ideas. I will definitely try them. Thanks again!
I love the button cards, never tried to make those. I use the buttons also in the middle of the signature and put it in the string hanging from the bottom. Just used that in my latest Christmas Teddy Bear journal, video is on TH-cam. Love your button ideas Elisabeth.
Oh my gosh.. as soon as you brought out that small dark Victorian journal my mouth dropped! Gorgeous. Also love the cream journal with the large metal cameo, oh my word!! You do beautiful work, thank you for the video :)
Super ideas - TYFS 👩❤️👩💜👸🏽
Great ideas thank you. I have some very old ones from my mother’s collection.
