Hootie Tootie Buttons
We made lots and lots of Hootie Tootie buttons; these ones turned out well, but quite a lot of them turned out so badly that they did not deserve a picture (poor Hootie Tooties).

Four pretty coloured small Hootie Tootie buttons |
Three lovely green/blue small Hootie Tootie buttons |
Two sweet little reddish Hootie Tootie buttons |
One lonely Hootie Tootie button |
Two cute little Hootie Tootie buttons |
Little Chickies
Some of the Little Chickie buttons we have made. I'm pleased with these Chickie buttons, like the size, shape, design and the colours.
