Button Mad GIVEAWAY - 10 Winners Total!!

I'm so excited about todays giveaway with Incomparable Buttons - it will be my largest yet!! Here is some background on the company:

     Incomparable buttons was started as a small company in 1984 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Working around a kitchen table, often late into the night, Jennifer Pascall was busy transforming small pieces of clay into buttons of all shapes and sizes. Many of the first designs, which are still popular today, were inspired by Africa’s rich ethnic artworks and distinctive wild animals. Over the years Incomparable began specializing in the creation of handmade buttons, craft pieces, craft kits, painting kits, greeting cards and jewelry. 

     As the company evolved, ladies from the local community were hired and trained in the art of button making. Today, Jennifer’s entire family, as well as 45 women from the local community are involved in the business. Most of the Incomparable team had never held a paintbrush before they joined the company and are now absolute masters of their brushes and justifiably proud of their work. The ladies sense of belonging within the company and skills as crafters not only gives them tremendous pleasure but also provides them with economic empowerment and has uplifted all their families.


How cool is that - they make BEAUTIFUL buttons and empower women - I'm all for it!! And these are not just regular, boring buttons. Check out how pretty they are:




Don't they really make all these crafts standout? I never thought of using buttons like this!

They even have pretty mini ones for smaller crafts! Arn't these adorable?


Incomparable buttons has a blog & website, Button mad, and will be giving away 10 different button cards of their butterfly & tiny heart buttons to 10 different winners! That's a $100 total value - my biggest giveaway to date! Wahoo!! Here are the button cards you could win:
