recently i had the itch to find something small and unique.  not sure how buttons/pins came to mind.  found these on etsy.  i'm diggin 'em.  i am going share them with the nieces and nephews.  they can add them to their backpacks if they choose. 

i kept the green world puzzle one for my lunch bag ...

moral of story here ... being green can be fun.

ps - these are homemade, bought from etsy, right?  i didnt break the no-shopping rule! 

pss - bad blurry photos, i know.  i am still familarizing myself with the SUPER close-up feature on the camera. 

next up ... libraries and bread machines!
