I just love buttons. I thought it would be fun to do a button swap. Here is how it would work. I will take 9 people besides myself.Mail to me 10 cards of shaped buttons. Something fun. Not just plain buttons. Along with a stamped envelope addressed to yourself with your name as return address too. I will swap out and mail you back 10 cards of buttons. Sign up till I have 9. Then have to me by May 30. Does anyone want to join in the fun?
Hugs,
Elizabeth

This sounds fun but I don't use shaped buttons. If you ever do one with round/square buttons or maybe a specific color theme I would be interested.
Jewelry, art, baskets, etc.

Julie,
That would find. I just meant the plain cheap buttons. Something with asome shape. Can be round or square. Something fun.
Hugs.

| I'm confused about what you mean by shaped buttons? Do you mean little lobsters -- ears of corn -- trees? Or just something more than plain white four-hole buttons? |

Katie,
That is correct. Something more than plain white 4 hole buttons.
Sorry for the confusion.

Hi Elizabeth,
I'd love to join in! OK, now I will be a pain & ask a million questions...
Can I send you ten cards with different buttons or do they all need to be the same? Also, I have LOTS of neat old buttons, but they are not on cards. Could I tie up 8 or so on a pretty ribbon? Sounds like fun! Thanks for organizing this!

| I made my own cards for this yesterday and just thought I would tie buttons on to my own cards that my kids helped me make. Do not know if that is exactly the right way, but i think that is the interesting part about swaps...to see what everyone comes up with. Maybe this will help. |

I'd like to be included in this... I've collected buttons for years. My ex built me a cabinet for them with printers drawers in it. ShawnMarie in PA

I thought maybe I'd missed something too. With the swaps not all being in one forum, it does get a bit confusing. I will assume we will be emailed off list with the address for mailing our buttons and when they are due...unless I missed that somewhere.
