As a vintage button addict I am delighted that The Scarlet Button will be exhibiting for the first time at our Frock Around The Clock Valentine's Vintage Fair, selling a wonderful array of vintage buttons in a wide range of colours, styles and sizes, and vintage and craft enthusiast Joanne, creator of The Scarlet Button, will be on hand to help you pick your perfect buttons, give advice on sewing and share some clever craft project ideas. 

As a special offer for Valentine's Day, the Valentine Vintage Button Bundle will be available for the fantastic price of £5.  The bundle includes 3 packets of 8 gorgeous cats eye style buttons on original foil backed cards in beautiful reds and pinks.  These are only available in limited numbers so get in early before they all disappear! Joanne will also be selling fabulous retro print buttons, created using original 70's Irish Linen in vibrant colours and patterns - perfect for brightening up old cardigans and frocks!

We loved Keepin' It Kitsch when they first exhibited with us at Seaside Frock in June so we're delighted that they will be back with us this Sunday at Frock Around The Clock. Susannah has posted preview pics on Facebook of some of her new creations and haberdashery goodies - here is a taster of what to expect on Sunday.
