I have been busy making lots of things. The extra steps to photograph and write about my creative adventures get put aside so I can start the next project. This is a project that I made months ago for Logan’s room. I purchased a shadow box frame, cut out a piece of mat board, blew up some letters on the computer, printed/cut them out, traced them on to the mat board and got crazy with the glue gun and buttons.
I have a bit of an obsession with buttons. When we were thinking about wedding favours for our Mexican wedding which happened exactly three years ago today I was googling images and came across the picture of a boutineer made of buttons, and because buttons hold things together I though that it was symbolic for a wedding. Anyway I am always looking for ways to incorporate buttons into craft projects, so when I saw an image on Pinterest of a letter made of buttons, I was inspired to make Logan’s name to hang in his room. It hangs over his change table and he is beyond frustrated because he can see all of these colourful buttons which he can’t touch.
