If buttons didn't exist I'd have had to invent them, if I can get a needle through it I feel compelled to stitch it. I am one girl who works like a fiend in her studio in England to produce very unique, quirky, ceramic button morsels. I also make one off 'Embroidery' pieces with hidden narratives, and accessories or 'wearable decoration' mostly in the form of brooches. My work has been featured in: Junior magazine (U.K), selvedge (U.K), Quiltmaker, (U.S.A), Embroidery (U.K), Petit (Sweden), WGSN (Global online), Stitch (U.S.A) and 2 storque features. Trendforecasting companies: Trendbible, Scarlet Opus. I undertake commissions in embroidery, buttons and accessories please contact me (the possibilities are infinite). All of my buttons can be converted into brooches (this costs extra), please contact me for details. I also have an extensive catalogue for wholesale orders. Each of my buttons is marked with my makers mark 'LJW'so that you know it's the genuine thing and not a cheaper imitation.
The colour descriptions I use are that of the glazes named by the glaze manufacturer. They are as photographed but may vary in appearance due to different monitor settings etc. Please contact me with any queries about colours...
