If you (or anyone else) would like to learn to do that yourself ... M&T Trimmings has an online tutorial.  I buy my buttons and trims from them ... just the other day, they sent me an email with info about their "academy."

 

www dot mjtrim dot com/academy

 

And ... they have a fabulous assortment of buttons and trimmings!

 Looks cute but I don’t wear short shorts anymore. I wear walking shorts or pedal pushers.
