Smile Anyone else addicted to Jesse James buttons???

I love these little shaped buttons! I went to Michael's and they are all on sale...$1.50 each!!! Some of them are flat on the back and some of them have a shank. It's pretty easy to cut that off so you can embellish a card (just be careful with the x-acto knife......it's sharp and I sliced my finger pretty bad!) They have all sorts of themes -- camping, butterflies, flowers, animals, nautical, hearts, snowflakes, ladybugs, bees....I bought a TON of them!

Anyone else a JJ button junkie? :rolleyes:

Sounds like it's a good thing I don't have a Michael's in my town

I think I may have a million different buttons from Jesse James in all different themes and styles. These little guys are wonderful and SO easy to use on just about everthing I have. Ladies, if you don't have a Michael's, try Hobby Lobby, Joann's, and Hancock Fabrics to try and find them.

Yes -- I love them! I've used some on paper bag books and on my scrapbook pages. Too cute!

They sell the button shank remover at Walmart in the sewing section near the buttons for about $4 I think. Maybe even less. I bought mine there quite awhile back.

Why does it have to be something wrong with you? That means it has to be something wrong with me. No fair!

Default Button shanks

I've been able to cut those darn shanks off with fingernail clippers. Give it a go!

You're not alone in that boat, Jennifer! I've been buying them for years now, esp when Hobby Lobby has them for half price - 99c (check the ads!). Trouble is, I just hate to actually use them; they're so darn cute!
