Not Your Mama's Buttons
Address
Hi, I’m Sharla Scroggs, Texas girl, and owner of Not Your Mama’s Buttons! Little pieces of handmade art on canvas and picture frames and various other surfaces, featuring buttons, stones, gems, and beads! I’ve always been a bit of an artist, so I enjoy prepping the canvas backgrounds as much as the designs themselves. I like doing these smaller pieces, like little gems themselves. Most of my pieces are 6x6 right now, but I have added some 8x8 canvases as well as wood planks, handcut wooden crosses, bird feeders, signs, picture frames, and pretty much any surface I can bling up.
As for the canvases...my favorite medium...I use all acrylic paints on stretched canvases, and they are sold without frames, finished out all the way around the boarding, ready to hang as is or you can add your own frame if you like. I use resin, plastic, wooden, metal, and coconut buttons, whatever calls to me for that design. I also use various mosaic stones, beads, gems, and rhinestones, and sometimes sequins or wooden cutouts for a base if I don’t paint the base color. For adhesives, I use craft glue and glitter glue. I usually always add a tiny sprinkling of some type of super fine glitter to the wet paint, as I just love that iridescent sparkle.
All the items in my shop are one of a kind and made to order with the buttons I have at the time, so no two are exactly alike, but if you really like the exact look of a piece, note that in the comments to me, and I can get as close as possible.
I love custom orders as well, so if you have a different color in mind, a gift idea, or something else, message me! I'd love to make your special art piece for you!
