The Button Floozie Ornament swap

This swap hosted by Laurie Jackson of Button Floozies blog gave us 3 partners, so we got 3 ornaments. and the main guideline was that there had to be buttons on the ornaments.  I made some non-sewn metal ornaments and glued buttons on them.
I used vintage tart tins, added something in the middle, also used vintage foil, and buttons, then decorated with mica flakes, and german glass glitter.
then I also sent each partner, one of these. . . . .

This ornament came with other vintage buttons,  Thanks Jeanelle from Colorado Springs.
Here is a cute hand crochet Christmas Tree, with buttons for ornaments.  I love the fibers  mixed in.  Thanks goes out to Denise from Milton, Vermont.  She also sent this vintage postcard in Mylar. . . .I love it all!  Salt Lake City has sure changed  from these days!

Look how pretty this paper and lace ornament is.  I love the delicate tatted lace that surrounds this image.  Thank you to Ann Murphy of Omaha, NE   She also included a lavender sachet.  Thanks to Laurie and all my partners.  Woo Hoo!
