Buttons!!

I need your help. I'm looking for an online source for buttons and toggles. *Please* don't tell me to Google it. I have tried and you get lots of junk -- web page buttons, button manufacturers, badge-type buttons. Argh! So, let me know where you buy your buttons and if I get a bunch of links, I'll put them on a web page for everyone to see, use & enjoy!

I don't have an online source (yet), but hit the "button lottery" at a bricks and mortar in Asheville, NC. As soon as I can find where I put the receipt I'll email the name of it to you so you can contact them. They had thousands of buttons...good ones.

Try this site for buttons--not a very exciting website, but quite a collection of buttons.

I like buttonshoppe.com. I bought some buttons from them at Stitches East the year before last. They have a huge selection.

Okay, I had to try it. I Googled "buttons clothing" and came up with a really neat site: http://www.umei.com/fashion-buttons-s.htm. The shop even has purse handles. I'm going to have to explore it in more detail later. Anyone else have tried it?

Vote 2 for Camilla Valley Farms--I just ordered 2 kinds of mission falls buttons for my vest (I just couldn't decide).

Not that you "need" another button source with all the response that you've gotten; but I like to follow through with my promises. The store in Asheville that I visited is: Waechter's Silk Shop PH: 828.252.2131
They have lots of wonderful buttons of good quality. If you're ever in their area it's worth a visit.

The Websters in Ashland OR (where I happen to work -is this a no-no?)has great buttons including Worldly Goods, Muench, Russi, Blue Moon, etc. etc. Website is www.yarnatwebsters.com. Unfortunately, not all buttons are on the website, but you can call us at 800-482-9801 if you want to inquire about other buttons.
