Take one rather dull charity shopped navy cardigan....fit for purpose yet instantly forgettable....three fab buttons bought from the Foundling Museum shop and one Aril, who for the first time in her life, has done within the week what she promised on Saturday....i.e picked up a needle and stitched them on rather than adding it to the multiplying stash of unfinished projects and ta-dah!
There seems to be an award for just about everything these days so if you'd be so kind as to give me a gold star in the category of "Just Getting On With It" I'd be very appreciative! A small change, but a definite improvement upon the original methinks.

I'll give you a gold star ... you definitely deserve one for your efforts! 🌟

Lovely buttons by the way :)
I always think that buttons can make a garment interesting and/or quirky and look for unusual ones. The buttons you have used there have brought the cardigan to life. Well done!

What gorgeous buttons and well done for getting that task done so quickly, sometimes the most simple ones are the ones we put off for months! xxx
ReplyDeleteI think that you should also get a silver cup and a rosette for that!.If I had got round to doing that,I would have put my long velvet dress on and had a speech ready,thanking all my Family for putting up with all the ..stuff..that I havent got round to finishing over the years.I bought a second hand blouse,that needed a couple of buttons about 30 years ago and its still in the bottom of my wardrobe..still needing those buttons!.It wasnt vintage when I bought it,but I presume it is now!Well done on getting yours done!,xx
ReplyDeleteSteady on...you'll be breaking out in a sweat! x
ReplyDeleteI finally threw two pairs of pants-one because of a broken zipper and one because I dripped bleach and ruined them. I kept telling myself I can fix them, have them fixed redyed, but never did. I'm gad you had more gumption and fixed your wonderful sweater.
ReplyDeleteCute! Well done for not procrastinating. My cardi has arrived but I've still got to sew my Foundling Museum button on it! xx
ReplyDeleteBless you all...I'm back on form now and twonking about splendidly she says taking a bow!
