Heart buttons.

DSC05122

A few weeks ago I bought a pretty little playsuit from the 60s on Ebay. Unfortunately the zipper was broken, and I really wanted to wear it, so today I went and bought some cute, pink heart-shaped buttons that I thought I'd sew onto it. Mind you, I've still not quite got the hang of sewing, but I don't think it would be that difficult to do it. At least I hope it won't be! At any rate, I think it's going to look really cute with the pink buttons and the pink bows on it.

Also, have you noticed my new header? Katie of Cherry Humbug made it and I love it. Katie's graphics have always impressed me a lot, and I was thrilled that she made me this header. Thank you again, Katie!

Looks like it will be very cute.
I'm still too scared to try the button hole function on my sewing machine...
Loving the new header also.

I wish I could sew... but I always end up causing too many injuries to myself when I try, maybe I need to wear some thick gloves or just get my mom to do it :-D

Regine said...

å så søte knapper, så kreativ du e, det blir sikkert kjempefint - gleda meg til å sjå resultatet!! :)

Svar: Fikk invitasjon på mobilen faktisk.. var kjekt å møte noken av dei bloggerene som eg leser bloggen til, men festen i seg sjølv var ganske dårleg om eg skal være heilt ærleg.. du gjekk ikkje glipp av så masse,hehe.

Eg trur det e morsommere å arrangere bloggtreff som e litt meir uhøgtideleg, og der du kan møte bloggere du veit om og leser bloggen til liksom.. så du får sei ifra om du plutselig kjem til oslo ein dag :D

l said...

hey, d'you wanna exchange links?

Scheharazade said...

It's so delicate and gracious !!

bisous^^

Imogen said...

I just read some more of your blog. In fact I read almost the entire thing. I'm so pleased that I found your blog, its definately one of the best out there. I think your really pretty and I love your style. I wish I was as stylish as you, your clothes are all so beautiful. Also I think its cool that your from Norway. I like reading about that and its interesting what you said about polar nights. I live in Australia so the concept seems strange to me, so different. Also I like reading about your travels. I have never left Australia in my life. All those countries must be exciting. I plan to be a regular viewer of your blog now.
