In my creative space, I needed a break from the market preparation routine so I took a few minutes to practice styling pictures and marvel at things around me that I love. I took a few linen ribbons that I am taking to Mathilda's and vintage buttons. I picked a "Linen" theme with Japanese linen with birds and flowers as a background. Unfortunately, it was a bit late in the afternoon so the quality of the pictures is not the best with a few shades here and there.
Some of these buttons are from my grandma's collection and I remember playing with them as a child and it makes them so precious!
I love this jar, decorated with snowflake embroidery and twine, it's a cute little space for my special buttons.
More creative spaces over at Kootoyoo.
Have a creative Thursday!
