Hello!

I am working on my first custom order, and realized that I need more of these tiny babydoll shank buttons. Does anyone know where I can find them for future beaded projects? Thanks in advance!! :)

Thanks for the comments! Yes, I am talking about the dogs nose! :) I tried to google it, and looked at online sewing shops that sell buttons, and they don't have the right size... ah well... maybe I will have to use a bead instead!

And, thanks for the comment FineTreads! This beaded dog is about halfway done. :D

Hi! I sell vintage buttons and I have tons of single buttons that I don't know what to do with. If you want, convo me with your address and a description of the button, (size, any other features you can think of) and I'll see what I have. I'd be happy to mail you a couple for free.

Try searching for antique boot buttons. They are 3/8" and have a loop shank. Left a link on your blog.
Best of luck!
