I just made a cute little sweater but the pattern calls for NINE buttons size 1.5". Is there anywhere I can go to get buttons this size that won't cost me a fortune?

Re: cheap buttons?
Wed, September 7, 2005 - 11:58 AMthrift store [cut them off clothes you like]
garage sales
ebay
jo-anns fabrics labor day sale [oosp! too late]
any fabric store notions sale
google for online sales of 1.5" buttons
consider unmatched buttons
consider a cluster of pearls as buttons
cover your own button kit [the kits are cheap]
cover a cheap/ugly button with your own crochet over it

Wed, September 7, 2005 - 7:50 PMthanks for the ideas... I like the cluster of pearls idea although I don't know if that fits into the "cheap" category... oh well... and I didn't even think of ebay...

Sun, April 9, 2006 - 7:47 PMHi there...
I have thousands of buttons of every color and size. I would be more than happy to sell you nine buttons of same size and color for a very, (did I say VERY) reasonable price.
I mean... like for cents each.
I am located in Concord, and my buttons are in shoe box sized plastic containers separated by color, mostly.
If you are still looking do respond and let's get together real soon.
