In one of the online cq groups I belong to, a class for painting buttons is taking place. This is a sampling of my beginning adventures! I think my favorite isthe black button, but some finishing touches still have to be done on these....like the top coat (minor detail) giggle! Plus I need to add more definition to the flowers for depth. But....for a first shot at doing something like this i'm pretty happy with the results. These are mostly roses, but I tried out some poinsettias and what I had hope would be some pansies but turned into more of a clematis! LOL!!! Then....of course....I had to do a tree! I will definitely have to do more of them in different styles! This is certainly a techinique worth trying!

And what group is that so I can join and glean? =)
yes, what group is that! Are you using the paints (Pebeo?)that you have to cure in the oven? That's what I use on my face buttons which are mop, but at least one of your buttons looks like it might be a 50's plastic. I have so many of those, it would be fun to paint them. So,can you share what paint you are using?
The buttons are really pretty great work.
Oh yeah I miss you ((HUGS)) drop me a line
