Where do you get your wooden buttons from?

Where do you get your wooden buttons from?

Postby spchicksta » Mon Jan 30, 2012 5:55 pm

Google is not my friends at the moment, I can't seem to find any useful sites! I'm after natural buttons, mainly wood, bamboo, coconut etc. Both plain or with cool designs on them. I'd usually buy them at the local sewing store, but there isn't a lot of choice out here :eh:

Haha I just rung my brother (manager at trade aid here) and asked him about these - he said it must be special to the wellington stores. Would you be able to upload a pic of them for me? & how much $$ please?
