A whole new sweater! Easy mending
I didn't like the blueish green flat shank buttons that much, anyway, so I dug around and found some brown woven leather buttons--the classic style.
Hoorah! A new sweater!

Love it!
ReplyDeleteReminds me of something I'd find in a boy's closet with the brown buttons, only sexy and feminine at the same time.
What an easy remake!
very cute- I really love the sleeves!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! I recently purchased a bargain pea coat, but the buttons were cheap plastic u.g.l.y. I needed 1.5" buttons, so it was very expensive to replace them all, (it cost more for the buttons than the jacket). It's amazing what replacing buttons will do for a garment.
ReplyDeleteWatch out for leather buttons - they bleed when they get wet!
I like the brown much better. I love simple changes like that on thrifted or given clothing. Great color, by the way.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why manufacturers ruin perfectly nice garments with cheap buttons. I like your choice of replacements.
ReplyDeleteSuch a simple change makes a huge difference!
ReplyDeleteI like your remake! You definitely made that sweater have a more modern classy feel. It looks great on you too!
ReplyDeleteI definitely like the new look that the classic woven buttons make. It also looks good with your hair!
ReplyDeleteOMG, this is so beautiful! I love the color contrast.
ReplyDeleteIt looks awesome on you! Perfect sweater.
ReplyDeleteVery nice, I love your choice! And a love a good wardrobe remake!
