(and these are only a few examples)

as decoration

as bookmarks

as cute vintage stuff

as a birthday cake :)

as a belt 

(it probably takes days to make a belt like this)

as jewels

as flowers

as a picture

as a frame of a picture 

 as a clock!

Having seen this brilliand ideas, I hunted for some buttons in my mother's sewing kit.
I found these beauties:

Tegola

I would like to live in a house like this...

...or at least make it :)

Tegola is a kind of tile used mainly in Italy. 

With the help of various techniques (decuopage, painting, gluing etc.), 

everybody can make their own unique cottage. 

Can't stop!

Hot tea

I could drink a litre of it right now.

I appreciate when clothing companies take time to design precisely even the label.

Oh really? :D

Decorate with paper!

This extremely simple 'snowflake' is an excellent decoration at carnival and party time, too if you use colored papers! This is my winter version, and below is the one that we made for New Year's Eve. 

You can find how to make it here!

(Although it is in Hungarian, if you follow the pictures, you cannot get lost!)
