He is ready for the fall fungi season.
He already has found one and it’s in his pocket.
More on the cute little buttons at the end of this post.
And I know you are wondering what is in his bag.
And about the buttons- I received an email from a company called Lots Of Buttons offering me some free buttons to check out their site. Well, hurray! I’m all for free stuff! I looked at the buttons, starting at the tiniest- which is in the 1/4″ range. I am always on the look-out for good doll appropriate buttons. I picked out 4 varieties- the ones on the vest are little horn buttons and perfect for a fox vest. Unfortunately, because they are a natural material, they seem to be a bit more fragile than plastic and one of the first 4 I picked out was cracked. Oh well. I like them enough that I can imagine shopping there again. The prices seem good and they have a limited but interesting selection of small buttons. I should also mention though- they needed to substitute one of my selections and it took about 4 weeks to get them. All in all though, I am happy to have another resource for affordable and cute buttons.
Love that little knapsack!
Mimi you are a master of beautiful details and knowing just what fabrics look great together! Another wonderful fox! : )
I may need to have him as well. How about a fishing fox?
Heh. Hope he knows better than to eat that mushroom. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amanita_muscaria
Are these foxes going to be for sale?
I just love this handsome fellow!
How cute is this! Where can I get one?
Oh, he is fantastic. The buttons are beautiful. How nice to get some for free. His mushroom book and the mushroom in his pocket are amazing details. Bravo, Mimi!
Thanks for the kind words, Mimi. Really glad that you enjoyed the buttons. Definitely drop us a line sometime and keep us abreast of any new “button” projects you’re working on. Would love to feature it on our crafts site sometime!
thanks again, Mimi.
