Here is my stash of black buttons which have been bought new over the last say 15years. I do not buy so many these days but used to quite regularly go to the haberdashery store and check out their buttons. You could just buy one from a tube. Nowadays at Spotlight they have packs of 2 or 4 and you have to buy the pack and they are expensive now. These are a variety of materials and designs. I visit a friend each Saturday morning and take buttons to show her. She loves to study their designs and really enjoys them which makes me feel good too. I have quite a nice collection of “new” buttons and keep them in a special set of drawers.
