    Default Button! Button! Who's got the button?

    I need some help getting a large quantity of random buttons for a photo shoot. Does anyone here have a some spare buttons that they are willing to part with for this purpose? I would be grateful and the model would very, very, very, very, very very, very happy.

    If you are willing to donate them, let me know and I'll tell you where to send them.



    And, no the photo shoot has nothing to do with Coraline.

    I don't have any at my personal disposal atm, but I do know that lots of antique and vintage shops will have boxes and jars of odd buttons for sale, and I know they will make a deal if you buy them all.

    A "button" has a whole different meaning to me ( ;

    There tend to be tons of those around for next to nothing in the thrift/cyclus shops and at the fleamarkets I visit, but I don't think sending them over from halfway across the world would be very cost-efficient... =/

    It's from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The original movie.
    It's an old acid game.

    Any buttons will do. Feminine buttons. Fancy buttons. Apathetic buttons. They will all be Evil Buttons by the end.

    Well, let me know when I should come over to discuss. And I still can't find a scythe but I found someone that will make a Death of Rats from a real rat skeleton for $200.

    To add to this, the model said she would send a signed print from the photo shoot to whoever sends us the most or the most interesting buttons.

    I've got buttons, trinkets, charms, and various other things that are either from things i took apart or things still needing to be figured out what to do with or what they are.

    just used a jolly roger charm as a repair button to my tripps come to think of it. and i've got a few dress shirts i can canibalise too since mom tossed bleach in the wash and they are ruined shirts now.

    lemmee know when's the deadline for having them in,h.b and i'll see if i can scrounge some money up to send them to you.
    oh also various beads and bells if those suit your fancy for anything.

    Well, we need to do the shoot before we finish shooting the documentary, but we can't do the shoot until we can fill a bathtub full of buttons, but if I must make a deadline, then I'd like to make it the end of summer.

    Bells might be fun, but not for this shoot in particular. My wife does beading so I have access to many beads, but thanks for the offer, though come to think of it, I think we have a small number of beads that look like buttons in the button jug.

    Let me know when you think you have everything together and I will PM you the address.

    Thanks!

    I've been wanting to get a skull. If you have enough buttons you could use them as packing peanuts for the skull.
