I have loads of buttons of books. It's going to be a few days of book buttons. And I know it's New Year's Eve, but I do not enjoy New Years so I refuse to celebrate it with a button.

So I forgot to post a button again yesterday. And I had it all planned out that I was going to post these two yesterday. They are so similiar that they really only deserve one day. In case you can't tell, they are just piles of books. For the book-lovers in my life...

Given to Alex today...

The real abominable snowman. Also belongs to S now.

P.S. - if you go to S's website you can see Jude (from the button below) enjoying his Christmas presents...

It's a baby Jude button. Given to my Aunt for Christmas.

The abominable snowman! A present for S.

Ho ho ho, hope you had a lovely Christmas!

All of the Christmas buttons were party favors at the family Christmas this year. It was a much bigger hit than I ever expected and there are none left. Please note that if you had previously expressed love for a Christmas button, I apologize because I no longer have any of them(except for you maxmill, yours is safe).

Merry Christmas everyone!

Fun with reindeer...

I know this is not really a Christmas button, but I wanted to share my first try at the "Weasley is our king" button. It has a few problems (font too small, crown is pixelly etc). I will make one that is right eventually.

I just plain forgot to post this button yesterday. So I'll post a button this morning and one this evening, and button a day will resume. Oooops.

This is Chicago at Christmas...just some pretty trees.

I'm a little snowman who wears a hat, sweater and mittens. Yes, it makes no sense. But it makes a cute snowman button.

Not my favorite...I was going for an old-school santa button. It turned out kind of crooked (but really, it's pretty good that I've made a bajillion buttons and this is the first crooked one). All in all, not a gem.

Another tree...I heart Christmas!

By the way, per the comment by my old roomie, I find a lot of images from Google and Yahoo image search. I also use catalogs and fliers that you might classify as junk mail. They can be extremely useful...

Oh snowman button...

Really, really hard to tell what it is in this picture....but it's a Charlie Brown-esque tree with one lovely red ornament. I quite like this button...

Merry Chrismukkah!

More snow is on the way....

Wasn't the best picture..but I did what I could...

Santa is really moving...

Another snowflake button...sorry kids, my mom already took this one.

Wrapping paper inspired...

And so begins the onslaught of winter/Christmas buttons (for some reason this pic is really dark, but the button is really light)...

One of the brother's Christmas buttons...

Another of S's pictures..looks really funky in person. It is part of a leaf with rain drops on it...

Last of the greens (this one looks better in person, like most)...

Green button #2...

The next 4 days are all courtesy of this guy. The buttons wouldn't be pretty without the pretty picture.

Part 2....

Beginning of a two-day ode to Rupert Grint...oh Ron....

This is possibly the worst picture yet (it's a tree on a navy blue background)!

I just prepared 4 pages of buttons - about 6-10 per page. And I think 4 of them are not secrets. This is the extent of my Christmas button extravaganza. And Kate, you can have a rock button for free since you're the first taker! Yay!

I made two of these rocky buttons...I really like them. I have to confess that I've been making loads of buttons (and planning dozens) but a bunch of them I can't post until after Christmas - I don't want to ruin any surprises. But I'm still going to try to make general buttons for the next 20 something days.

Update: the pictures...still not looking that great. But I'm posting buttons anyway. And FYI, this is an icy branch button.

Just a warning for tomorrow: I made a bunch of buttons and my camera just will not focus. I have some OK pictures and if I have to, I'll just post a bad picture. Stupid camera.

Many, many more meepers to come...I'm trying to figure out the font thing still...

Experimentation....

Happy Thanksgiving!

Part 3 of the greens...something special tomorrow....

Part 2 of the green series...again a little hairy but lovable.

Part 1 of the green series. FYI, yes it does kind of look green and hairy. And I really like them in person.

Quick notes: I made a bunch of buttons today so if all works OK I think button a day has officially started. Also, take pity on me. Not only am I an amateur at making buttons, but taking pictures as well. Some of these buttons did turn out great and then the picture is extremely poor. Oh, and I think there's going to be a bunch of "series" buttons. Starting tomorrow.

Ok all, it's my first button ever...and yes it is just red. I used a spare piece of paper to test the button maker and it is brilliant. And so begins the challenge to post a button every day. It may not take off right away because I don't think I have the right kind of paper to make them look real/pretty. Therefore, it may be after Thanksgiving when I truly post a button a day. So welcome!
