Buttons By Eve

Thank you so much for all of your Christmas orders! Each one means so much ❤️

I will be closing my Etsy shop tomorrow for the Christmas holidays and to ensure that orders are sent out in time for Christmas 🎄🎅🏼

Hello everyone 👋🏻

Sorry I’ve been rather quiet recently, I was really disheartened when my Instagram acccount was hacked. Anyway, I’ve uploaded lots of Christmas bits to my Etsy shop so please check them out 🎅🏼 🎄

Hi everyone, just so you know my Instagram account is still hacked. I haven’t been able to get it back despite multiple reports and emails to instagram. Any messages you receive are not from me! Please block and unfollow the Instagram account _.buttons_by_eve_ and report it. I’d rather get it shut down and start again than have people messaging under my name. If you could help me get the message out there that would be great. So sorry about all this. Eve xx

‼️Important‼️

My Instagram account has still been hacked, I’ve been in contact with Instagram again but I’ve had no use getting back into my account. Please do not click on any links coming from my Instagram account as it’s not me. Can’t believe this has happened it’s so frustrating 😞😞😞

Hi everyone, just to let you know my Instagram page had been hacked 😫😫😫 some scumbag has locked me out of my account and changed my password. So any messages from Instagram are not from me. I’m so upset about this 😣😣😣

🦁 Framed Button Lion 🦁

This little guy is available to purchase on my Etsy shop. I just love his cute little face 🥰

🐒Personalised button animals🐒

I’ve framed my button animals inside pine box frames which I think would look lovely in any child’s nursery. Each picture can be personalised with any name to create a truly one-of-a-kind gift.

✨All of these pictures will be available on my Etsy shop tomorrow✨

🧝🏻‍♂️🏹 Legolas 🏹🧝🏻‍♂️

I had time over the Easter holidays to finish another Lord of the Rings picture. Legolas has always been one of my favourite characters and, in my opinion, he is the best fictional archer of all time 🏹🏹🏹

🥳 𝟚𝟘𝟘 𝕤𝕒𝕝𝕖𝕤 🥳

Another small biz milestone reached. To some this number might be tiny but to me it’s such an achievement and I am so so grateful to every single person who has purchased and supported me since I started this journey 💗

⚔️Aragorn ⚔️

The perfect man does exist girls…. Aragorn from Lord of the Rings 🤤 Where do I start? Looks ✅ swordsmanship ✅ loyalty ✅ leadership skills ✅ will never tell you you’re cooking is bad ✅ not afraid to show sensitive side by crying and singing in elvish ✅ ability to open doors whilst audibly making you gasp ✅ If any male fictional character is written in the female gaze it’s this guy 😍

Can’t do Aragorn enough justice using buttons but I have given it a good go!

🧙‍♂️Gandalf 🧙‍♂️

So, random fact about me, I am a huge Lord of the Rings fan 🤓I just love the films (extended versions of course) and I am currently reading the books again.

I’ve been wanting to create some LOTR button portraits for a while, purely for my own enjoyment. I found some Middle Earth inspired fabric and I used a mixture of black buttons and rhinestones to create the picture. I love how effective the use of negative space is in this picture.

Gandalf is such an iconic character so I hope I’ve done him justice.

🎂 60th birthday present 🎂

My mother-in-law turned 60 at the start of the year and my boyfriend asked me to make her a scrabble frame. (I swear I save this guy a fortune on gifts and cards 🤣).

It feels weird sharing none-button related makes 🙈 I enjoyed making this one though and my MIL liked it which is all that matters 🥰

🎈Custom Order 🎈

I was lucky enough to be asked to create a button picture for a lovely little girl’s first birthday recently.

I adapted my original Up-inspired button picture to include some personalised requests. I really enjoyed being trusted to create something that Georgie can treasure in years to come 🎈

✨I’m always happy to accept custom orders, please DM through Instagram, Facebook or Etsy if there’s something I can help you with ✨

🌸 Mother’s Day cards 🌸

I have added Mother’s Day cards to my Etsy shop. I have used last years designs simply because time has completely run away with me. I’m a full time teacher and my class will always come first 👩🏻‍🏫

However, I really loved these designs so I’m so happy to be offering them again. Treat your mum to a handmade card this Mother’s Day 💐

✨All cards available now on my Etsy shop. £4 each with free P&P ✨

💐Mother’s Day Easels 💐

Something a little different for Mother’s Day this year…. I’ve created these wooden, floral plaques which would make a unique gift for any super mum.

I created a vase using pink vinyl, stems using twine and an assortment of embellishments to create the flowers. Spot the cute owl! 🦉

They’re available in either mum or mom. (I say mom but write mum - I am from Birmingham 🙈)

I’ll be listing these on my Etsy shop tomorrow 🌸

🦝Button Raccoon 🦝

The last of my button animals is this little raccoon. Aren’t raccoons super cute, they look like little burgers don’t they?

I really enjoyed creating this button animals collection, I’ll list them all on Etsy when I’ve got them framed. I’d definitely like to create more button animals in the future. Which ones should I create next? 👇🏼

🦌 Button Deer 🦌

Hi everyone 👋🏻 I’ve spent a few weeks off social media because I think it’s good to take a break every once in a while. I hope everyone is ok in this uncertain and distressing time 💛💙

But I’m happy and ready to get back to sharing a few button bits that I’ve been upto behind the scenes.

I’m going to carry on sharing my button animals, next up is this sweet little deer. I love the Scandinavian feel of this picture and I love the different neutral coloured buttons.

🦓 Button Zebra 🦓

The next of my button animals is this cute little zebra. He was one of my favourites to make. But the big question is, are zebras white with black stripes or black with white stripes? 🤔 What do you reckon?

🦥Button Sloth 🦥

Happy Sunday everyone. I thought today would be the perfect day to share my next button animal, a cute little sloth. Sunday’s are for lazing around after all. This was the first button animal I made this year, I was influenced by the Scandi style and I love how he turned out.

🦒 Button Giraffe 🦒

The third of my button animals is this cute little giraffe. I had to make a giraffe because they’re my sister’s favourite animal. I though this picture would be quite straightforward but actually, because it’s thinner than the other animals, it has quite a few fiddly bits. Hope you like him 🦒

🐒 Button Monkey 🐒

The second of my button animals is this cheeky little monkey. Isn’t he just the cutest! 🙊

🦁 Button Lion 🦁

I decided that, this year, I wanted to create more button animals. So for the past few weeks I’ve been busy creating some animal friends. I was influenced by the scandi style as I love Scandinavian designs and I wanted the animals to be cute.

The first of the animals I’m sharing is my lion. Isn’t he super cute ☺️ I’m so proud with how he’s turned out, I love the neutral colours too 🤍🤎

❤️ You’re My Missing Piece Valentine’s card ❤️

This design was popular last year so I’m bringing it back! I love how the jigsaw pieces have heart detail on them too. Be quick though I’ve only got 2 of this design left!

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

❤️ Personalised button heart Valentine’s card ❤️

I’m bringing this design back as it was very popular last year.
You can have your partner’s name/ pet name/ short phrase written inside the centre of a button heart and you can choose your preferred button colours.

This is a great design for both men and women, the personalised touch goes a long way.

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

❤️ Love Branch Valentine’s card ❤️

This is a new Valentine’s design for this year, I love how simple but elegant it is. I used glitter vinyl to create the branch and 2 heart buttons to create 2 love baubles. I think it’s actually my favourite of this years designs.

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

❤️ Love Tree Valentine’s card ❤️

This is a new Valentine’s design for this year, I found these small heart buttons and I wanted to use them as leaves on a tree. I’m chuffed with how the design has come out, it’s nice to bring a vision to life.

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

❤️ Love Always Wins Valentine’s card ❤️

This is a new Valentine’s design for this year, I love how super cute and playful it is. I used to play tic tac toe when I was as younger so it was quite nostalgic making this one. Any excuse to get my Cricut out too.

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

❤️ Hanging hearts Valentine’s card ❤️

This is a new Valentine’s design for this year, I got inspiration from my hanging Christmas baubles cards. I just love these cute heart buttons and I fell in love with the rhinestone ones too, can’t beat a bit of sparkle ❇️

✨Available to order now on my Etsy shop £4 with free P&P ✨

💛🐘 60th Birthday card 🐘💛

My lovely mother-in-law turned 60 this week so I made her a personalised card incorporating her favourite colour and animal. I think it went down well 💛

✨I have similar style birthday cards listed on my Etsy shop ✨

👶🏻 New Baby Cards 👶🏻

I have finally gotten around to listing my new baby cards on my Etsy shop. All cards are fully customisable, you can choose the colour of the button and the bow used and you can personalise the baby name.

I’ve created these both as custom requests and I’ve made them for my own friends who have had babies. They’re the perfect way to spread some love to the new bundle of joy 🥰

✨Available now on my Etsy shop ✨

😴 👑 Sleeping Beauty 👑😴

Happy Friday everyone! I thought I’d share another of my button princesses today. I chose Sleeping Beauty because I’m feeling rather tired this week having gone back to work after the Christmas holidays. 6am starts are a killer. But very happy to be back into my routine with my class.

✨Sleeping Beauty is available to purchase on my Etsy shop ✨

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I’m super proud to have held onto my 100% 5 star rating on my Etsy shop. Every time a review comes through I love reading what customers have said. It really does mean a lot that people spend time to leave a review for small businesses. Let’s hope it continues in 2022.

✨Here’s a selection of my some recent reviews ✨

🥳 🌈2021 Top 9 🌈🥳

I love looking back on all of this years makes. I really feel that I’ve developed so much as button artist this year and I’ve produced pictures that I’m really proud of. My little face also made my top 9 🙈

I’m particularly proud of the button portraits I’ve done, such as Cruella. They’re the most time consuming but by far the most rewarding. I definitely want to do more in 2022.

As always, thank you to everyone who has liked, commented, shared and ordered from me this year, it really does mean the world.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👧Personalised Cards 👨‍👩‍👧

Hi everyone 👋🏻 I hope you all had a wonderful and restful Christmas. I’ve enjoyed stepping back from social media for a bit and spending quality time with my family ❤️

One of my most popular Christmas makes this year was my personalised snowman family cards. I really enjoy making these, thanks to everyone who ordered. I thought I’d share a couple of them 🥰

🎄 That’s a wrap 🎄

Yesterday I posted out my final Christmas orders and today I closed my Etsy shop until the new year.

Thank you so much to everyone who has ordered from me this Christmas, every order really does bring me so much joy ❤️

I’ve struggled a lot with engagement on Instagram this year, even though I have more followers now then I did last Christmas 🤷🏻‍♀️ it is so easy to be disheartened, some people don’t realise all the work and effort that goes on behind the scenes and Instagram’s algorithm this year has not helped.

That said, your orders and shares, likes and comments have really boosted me when I’ve been feeling down so thank you.

Wishing everyone a very happy Christmas 🎅🏼

👼🏼 Button Angels 👼🏼

Today I posted probably the final button angels of the year. They will forever be one of my favourite Christmas makes.

✨My Etsy shop will be closing tonight ✨

💗Dreaming of a Pink Christmas 💗

I broke up for the Christmas holidays today and I’m so excited and ready for all the festivities to come 😍 it really is my favourite time of year 💗

I’ve been really enjoying making pink decor and cards this year, I thought this design deserved its place on my grid. It’s been one of my favourite designs this year 💗

✨Just a reminder that my Etsy shop will be closing tomorrow ✨

⛄️ Button Snowmen ⛄️

Just one more day of work before I break up for the holidays! Honestly I’m so excited, Christmas is my favourite holiday and I can’t wait to celebrate with my family and friends.

These little guys are giving me all the festive feels ⛄️

✨My Etsy shop will close on Friday so get your orders in✨

💝 Last orders reminder 💝

Thank you so much to everyone who has ordered from me so far this Christmas. There’s still time to place an order. Get them in before Friday when I will close my Etsy shop until the new year 💕

🌈 Rainbow Decorations 🌈

These have proved really popular this year, I wasn’t sure how they’d go down because they’re very alternative to traditional Christmas decor. I think they bright a cute pop of colour 🎨

✨I still have 2 left on my Etsy shop ✨
