The Mess Under My Desk

I can procrastinate about something for over a year and then suddenly be as tenacious as a pitbull. I rediscovered this tin of buttons the other day (that I had sorted with my mother over a year ago!) and this afternoon suddenly decided it was time to dive in and see what I could list in my etsy shop for sale. I know next to nothing about truly old buttons, so the research is taking time. But the more I learn, the more excited I become and as tired as I am now (after midnight!), I am just not ready to shut down the computer and turn off the light.

I have celluloid and possibly even some bakelite buttons!

Novelty plastic buttons from the 1950s and some truly gorgeous mother of pearl.

Wood, leather, oxidized metal.

I hope to price these to sell, because I have a mess under my desk.

AND you can still join in the "Pay It Forward" game!

Katie and Sarah have enthusiastically said they would play.

That leaves 3 openings.

Read my last post for the rules then leave me a comment that says, "count me in!"

Edit 9:40pm:

I have two more players-

Rhonda and Pat!

I just need one more person to send art to.

And all you have to do is create 5 tags, or 5 ATCs, or 5 exquisite inchies to mail away.

You are not required to paint a Sistine Chapel ceiling (5 times)!

So won't you join in?

I can't wait to start making something!
