it's hard to believe that this is my one hundredth post !!
I have noticed in blogland that people celebrate their blog-a-versaries with a giveaway i wasn't organised for mine so i will celebrate my hundredth post instead!

The other day i could handle the mess on my desk no longer,
after there was an unfortunate avalanche when a big tin of pencils made a break for freedom, resulting in a huge crash that woke my daughter and knocked over the piles "stuff" on the floor too!
So i cleared my desk so that i could see the whole of my A2 cutting mat before i got bored and started just pushing the stuff to the edges!
BUT in the clearing process i filled a thrifted jar to overflowing with all sorts of buttons - vintage ones and mother-of-pearl ones, fabric, leather, wood, glass, modern, floral, plastic, metal, animals, plain, fancy, small, medium and large ones!

Congrats on your 100th post. That is a great giveaway...cute buttons!
Happy 100th post!! I found you thru the Button Floozies blog! Thanks for a chance to win your giveaway!
Yay on 100 posts, you beautiful, gorgeous lady!!
I think I genuinely first met you through Crafteroo so it would have been from there that I have been subjected to your button porn...ahem blog.
:-)
I follow the button floozies blog and so that would be how I found you. HOw I found the button floozy blog I have no idea. I love buttons, all shapes and sizes, all kinds. And I like seeing people using buttons in unusual ways, like eyes on a doll or the center of a flower for a mixed media collage. I would love to win your buttons.
Happy 100th! I found you through button floozies wich I found googling "buttons".
Oh, I love buttons, and I will love to win your giveaway!
Thanks!
Congratulations on 100 posts! I have been following your blog for a while and I'm not sure exactly where I found you; it was either through the Button Floozie's blog, which I follow but can't join because there aren't enough spaces; or it was through the blog Vintage Patina; or, it might have been through Joanie Huffman's blog!
I found you thru Button Floozies and have visited your site a number of times! I love your blog and Happy 100th post! It doesn't seem like alot, but when you keep typing away...it is!
Thanks for the giveaway - these buttons are sooo cool!
Congrats on 100 posts!
I found you through MN - love the blog for the pictures and I have a weakness for lovely buttons!
Happy Hundredth! My path came from Button Floozies. Love your buttons, and that little plate that some of them are on is very sweet!
Congrats! I found you on Button Floosie! All those cute buttons caught my eye. Then I saw the cute jar too. Why are we drawn to these crazy things? I think I am because My Mom was a seamstress and they bring back good memories of her for me.
I found your blog through "Button Floozies"... I love your button pics!! Congratulations on your posting milestone!
congratulations! I found you through Button Floozies.

Congrats on your 100th post. Why i saw the name somewhere and well, if you could see the buttons i have collected (the shell are my personal favorites) you would know why I was here.

Anyway i have you link on my blog and love seeing all your lovely buttons and the great ideas you have for using them.

I can't believe you've only got to 100 posts - I would have guessed at double that!!
How did I find you?? We both know the answer to that - good old MN!
I LOVE that little baby face button - so I just have to win.
Congratulations. xx
Hello Ms Violet! I found your blog through the folksy forums and have serious button envy! Congrats on a hundred posts.
i just found the button floozies blog and found you from there
oh my, who wouldn't want a jar of old buttons! I sure would!! Congrats on #100. xo, suzy
Happy 100th! I found you on flickr and now bump into you all over the internet!
Completely with you on the clearing the space issue, I keep piling unfinished projects on my workspace:)
Congratulations! :D Ever since we were partnered up for the toadstool swap, I love checking up on your latest projects. :)
I wish I could remember how I found your blog. I love it though as it brings back memories of a tin my mom has with all kinds of old buttons. I can remember looking through it when I was young. Come to think of it, I need to ask my mom if she still has it.
I 'found' you via MN & love your button obession, it's a bit like my beady obsession. Well done on reaching 100 :-)
I found your blog when I joined Crafteroo and you've been in my blog feeds since! I like the variety you have to offer the reader :)
Hello Doll
I am a perpetual blog surfer, perhaps that has something to do with the fact that I am new to blogging. But I read peoples blogs, I follow them and click a couple of comments that look cool or perhaps have cool blog names. I usually am drawn to creative types, which I see that is exactly what you are. I came here from your button floozies account. So happy 100th to you deary. I love your content and your etsy shop is the bomb. Your so talented.
Brittany
I follow you now.
I am hosting an arty giveaway to end this weekend.

I just got up to 60 something on mine, and I thought that was pretty cool...I can't remember how I found your blog...I go blog hopping when I'm a little bored or just in the need to read something new. Your little jar of buttons is cute...maybe 51 will be my lucky number...*elaine*
