Looking for funky buttons for a craft project...?

Funky large unusual acrylic buttons, green, purple, pink, turquoise, bag making, sewing, knitting.
 I'm often on the lookout for unusual large buttons for my craft projects, and can rarely find anything that fits the bill - I strike lucky occasionally, but generally speaking it's the same old same old. But, as I'm sure you'll agree, these quality acrylic buttons have funkiness in spades!

If you love these as much as I do, you'll find more designs (funky, colourful, retro, bright - take your pick!) at ThimbleShack, my new ebay store.  If you sew, knit or make bags, and haven't yet found the perfect button or buttons, these could be just what you're looking for. :)

Large unusual retro buttons, duck egg blue, brown, sewing, knitting, bag making, ThimbleShack.

Crafting and Pricing - how do you get it right...?

Purple fabric phone case with flap and velcro fastening, handmade in Wales UK.
As promised, Phone Pockets will now begin to appear in my shops, and this fab purple one is available at Folksy now.

As so many crafters find, pricing in the hours taken to make an item is rarely a viable option. If we did, we'd never sell a thing! So I think I've priced this competitively, but I'd be interested to hear your views. :-)
