button me up!

During my Foundation year at Winchester School of Art, I met someone who had a phobia of buttons. I had never heard of anything like it before and I was so intrigued that I did an entire project about it. I've never forgotten it, and since then have met other people with button phobia, so it's not as rare as you might think.

I don't think I'd be able to cope if I developed a phobia of buttons, I am too obsessed with cardigans.

Far from being a buttonphobe, I am more a buttonphile, as you can see from all these buttony goodies that I have been saving up for a button-filled post...

{flower hairclips} {button book} {clutch} {message buttons}

{bouquet} {butterflies} {peppermint candies} {cute as a button biscuits}

{button tights} {jug} {pretty button-filled dish} {stag}

{octopus} {penguin cushion} {embroidery hoop} {miss you card}

{button cards} {bracelet} {wreath} {stamps}

without forgetting of course, the best button of them all:
