Today's Tip: The Almighty Button

A great way to transform a garment is by simply swapping the buttons. If you do not care for brass or gold tone buttons, or the buttons make the garment look less chic, or if you want to add a touch of bling, swap the buttons. This can be easily done by a tailor or you can do it yourself. When replacing buttons be sure they are the same size. If you have been saving all the buttons attached to garments as I have, you can have the buttons made into a necklace, bracelet, and/or earrings. You can also make cuff links, add them to a tie bar,  jeans, a fabric purse, and/or hat, etc. Buttons Matter!!!
