Default where to find the REALLY tiny buttons

I am not talking about those small (but very thick) buttons that are about 5mm wide;

NOT like these

But even SMALLER and much thinner. I have seen some but can't seem to find a place that sells them. The ones I have seen are about 3mm across and are the cutest ever!!

Thanks

Are you thinking of buttons for babies' clothing? You could try looking for those at the fabric store in the notions aisle.

I found some super tiny ones at walmart. They are about the size of a mini brad. They were on a card on the button rack.

I think a lot of the purpose of these buttons is for doll clothes or mini size dolls even. They are too tiny to actually be useable

The smallest ones in this a little over 1/2 but not near 1/4

Thanks so much for the links! I think the micro minis are what I am looking for but I love the lasting impressions ones too since you get matching buttons in asst sizes.

Cheers, Holley

Their ribbon colors are spot on too.
