Annemarie Blades creates fun and quirky handmade bags, accessories, art and clothing under the Button Tree label. Based in Melbourne, Annemarie uses vintage materials, old book illustrations and a huge dose of imagination to put together fun pieces for your wardrobe. Annemarie aims to use as many second had/recycled materials as possible while creating original pieces - an ethos I can really respect.
I love the idea of a steely-eyed deer or bird-in-flight on my scarf peaking out from my winter jacket. And replacing all my jacket buttons with bird-covered tweed buttons. And adding a roomy bag with requisite doily fawn. And of course a doily-covered badge to top off my outfit.
If you like that idea too, you can find Button Tree in the online store as well as stockists around Australia.

I love that bird button!
ReplyDeleteAnd the website is FANTASTIC! You see so many websites and rarely does one really stand out... Button Tree's absolutely does.
Hi Lisa - I'm sure Annemarie will be thrilled to hear that you love her site. Do you think I could replace all my jacket buttons with the birds, or would that be too much? Maybe just one...
ReplyDeleteOooh, yes this stuff is very good! I love it all :)
