Either way, they are giving away one of their giant button stars away to one of you! And, ask anyone who has ever opened their letterbox to find something from them, it is the most delightful thing to get in the mail, one of their perfectly executed wrapped boxes. Go ahead. Ask.
Those buttons would have had a different life if they were living with me, but this way, you get to see them every single day, hanging up somewhere to brighten your day. Fun!
❍ We'll keep it simple. Leave a comment. Do you love big buttons, too?
❍ Please OH please leave an email if it's not linked to your profile.
❍ You are welcome to email me with an entry if you're unable to leave a comment. Then we can chat. About big buttons, and other such irresistible sewing accoutrements.
❍ I'll announce a winner Monday.
I've lost count of the number of times I've gone to their store to buy a star and simply cannot pick my favorite one. I would surely be in trouble if I bought one of each :) Thanks for the chance to win! melissakaatz(at)gmail.com
ReplyDeleteI love Ashley's stars, but don't have one from your parents. I would love to add it to my collection!
ReplyDeleteI love these buttons that are so cool. Not sure what I would use it on, but I am sure that I could come up with something just as awesome as the button. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever idea. I'd love to have a big button star!

ReplyDeleteAnd speaking of OUT and books-have you ever read Heckedy Peg? It is pretty great. And Miss Rumphius. And, my most favorite, The Oxcart Man.
Those are some PRETTY great reads.
In fact, for the heck of it, I might try and come up with projects to go with them and give them as Christmas gifts or something. (Thanks for the inspiration.)

ReplyDeleteButtons are an addiction.
ReplyDeleteI love my collection and am always on the look out for more. I have been collecting them since I was a child. The hard part now is letting them go when I use them on an outfit that I am selling. But I want to share the love and what is the point of a lot of buttons that sit in jars they must be seen and loved.
I would dearly love to receive a perfectly wrapped package. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI love buttons, and I think those stars are wonderful!

ReplyDeleteLove buttons of all sizes, but LOVE your parents' stars even more. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteLOVE. LOVE LOVE. LOVE LOVE LOVE. Cant emphasise just how gorgeous they are and how much I would love to be the proud owner of a button with such character and uniqueness. The mind boggles over what to do with them and how difficult it would be to narrow the choices down to one single project! Perhaps I could do a timeshare style of useage whereby they can be a part of many many projects! Hee Hee!!!

ReplyDeleteLove the button stars! I have been admiring your parents' shop for a while - everything is so pretty it's hard to decide where to start!

ReplyDeleteButtons are the star of this show, yes? :-) Love them. Love stars. Love buttons. Love button stars!
ReplyDeleteI was JUST telling my mom about these stars yesterday! YES, I like big buttons! But who doesn't, really?!
ReplyDeleteI've loved buttons forever. I remember playing with my mom's collection while she sewed when I was a little girl. I now have my great grandmother's, grandmother's, mom's and my own button collection. Some are so hard to use! ---like the red vinyl ones cut from the cuffs from the matching rain coats me and my sisters wore.
ReplyDeleteLove the stars your parents make and am so curious to see their beautiful packaging!
So cute!! Who doesn't love stars? And buttons? And button stars?!?
ReplyDeleteMy sewing area seems to be the last room on the list to be organized after this move. Being chosen would surely motivate me to quickly finish the rest of my home so that my sewing machine and I can reunite under a perfect button star!
ReplyDeleteYour dad's stars are stunning. Every time I go to their shop to choose I get overwhelmed by so much sparkle. The button star is a creative addition to the line-up! Don't all makers love buttons?! I have a big jar and many of our cast-off shirts and dresses are cast away sans buttons! Thanks to you and your folks for the chance to win!

I love big buttons! Recently, my husband's grandfather passed away. My MIL found a large box of vintage glass buttons and brought them to me... they are amazing! But my favorite ones are large black faceted button the size of silver dollars. SO cool. They make me happy. :)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE big buttons.Whenever I make anything for my kids I insist on large buttons. They just make life fun:)

You have the sweetest parents in the world! I know that your mother was taught well by your grandmother, I loved her too. Their stars have a very special place in my heart. I was given my first star by my mother. and the last star I purchased was the gold star at mothers day for my mother. Now two weeks latter that star sits at my mothers death bed as a special reminder of the love that families share. Thank you for a great heritage of families that we share.
