Handmade Ceramic Buttons Giveaway!

Here is my little House of Buttons!  I found it the other day and thought it would be perfect for sorting and storing the various ceramic buttons waiting to be put onto cards to be sold from my site, or my galleries.  Ain't it sweet?


But the two sets of buttons below 
won't be going out to my shops !


They're going to TWO readers who win them in my
 Big Button Bonanza Giveaway!


If you're interested, please leave me a comment and if possible give me a quick mention on your own blog. If you want to follow my blog in the future, that would be great too!

I've had a go at doing a Blog Button (a button button!!) which is in the side-bar at the top for you to grab if you wish.  Hope it works!!
Ceramic buttons are way easier to do ....  and far less frustrating!!

Includes international entrants. Deadline for entries : 13th December, 5pm
Winners announced here: 15th December.

Update:
GIVEAWAY OVER NOW - WINNERS ANNOUNCED SOON!

    Guess what? It was cute as a button.

  11. Loving those buttons and the little house of buttons. That would make lovely wall art. If I don't win these buttons I am definitely going to have to get some made for me. Not sure what for yet, but I'm going to be making myself some cardis once the Christmas rush is over as it is very cold in my new house due to solid wood floors. Look lovely, feel icy.
