She said I love you boy... I love your soul... she said I love you baby oh oh oh ohh....

Hello!Just had to show you the package Posty dropped by today...a box of total and utter gorgeousness....all the way from the US of A.
You will, no doubt, have seen the exquisite work of juliewhitmorepottery ...well, I am lucky enough to have six of her hand painted, magically lovely, button cards to sell at thewearhouse and homespun fair.

Julie works in the French Faience tradition...all hand painted, in her unique style...

each button is at least 1" in size...



Aren't they lovely?
Thanks for stopping by. x
