It is Wednesday again, so it's BUTTON DAY on my blog !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It would be great if you could do the same; make your Wednesday a button day too. Have you seen a lovely, beautiful, stunning, crazy button or button-related thingy, or did you make something with a button / buttons, or did you even make buttons yourself, blog about it on your blog on Wednesday, and give the link here in the comments.
Part 4 of the Button Pillow story is about natural looking pillows with only a few buttons, a bit of "minimalism" :) I start with this minimalistic button cushion from ferm living. I like the simple colour trick with the 4 buttons.
This next pillow breathes a minimalistic industrial mood, and it is from a company called Industry, selling vintage and upcycled items from all over the world.
I totally love this quirky minimalistic design of Pieces of You. This cushion forms part of the "Lost and Found'" range; all the buttons have been lost and found, and it is made from unloved textiles for you to love !
This Chocolate Button Pillow is also made from vintage materials (buttons, linen and the back is made of fabrics like Liberty and Designers Guild) and it is from The Baobab Tree. Very yummie !
This button pillow by The Painted Chest looks like a beach pillow with all its mother of pearl buttons if various forms; very pretty !
Also very natural is this Button Pillow Brushwood from Etsy's PatsyDesigns. The pillow is made of a mix of vintage and newer buttons in woodsy greens on a soft green misty Dupioni silk.
And because it is officially spring now, and Easter will coming soon, this pillow story ends with the Easter bunny. It's made by skinny laminx, and it is über-cute !

I start part 3 of the Button Pillow story with this beautiful pink velvet button cushion from John Lewis. It is embroidered with simple flower shapes that are made up of a stitched stem and button head. I love the playfulness of this design.
If you are not a sewing person you can try glueing as Amanda does in this lovely button branch pillow tutorial.
Letter Perfect Designs on Etsy makes the most beautiful monogram button pillows; all letters are possible ! And if you want to try it yourself, you can follow this great tutorial from Kari.
You can make complete words too, like in this tutorial from Spotlight.
And I very much like this heart pillow by american swede; it's beautifully done in lovely subdued colours on linen. And you can try your to make your own with this tutorial from Modern Country Style.
Or maybe you prefer a more nautical theme; this one comes with a tutorial from all about you. And I am absolutely stunned by these Pearly King pillows from house to home, based on Londons Pearlies.
And then I also found this cute peace pillow by RJB Stone.
And as the last pillow in this review, this absolutely funny & funky Pickle Button Pillow with tutorial from Mandi.

When I saw this beautiful linen pillow covered with mother of pearl buttons by Comfy Heaven on Artfire, I was thrilled. The simplicity and the beauty of this pillow is stunning. I am going to make one for myself when the renovation of the living room is ready. You can buy it of course at Artfire, or try to make one yourself with the following excellent tutorial from Erika Kern at craftstylish.
JoJo and his crew make recycled wire products. Most of his team are refugees from Zimbabwe and work together in their work shop just out of Cape Town. Their button pillows are hand crocheted in copper wire including buttons.
This pillow gave my mathematical mind a jump of joy; it's one of the beautiful Indian cushion covers from Shara.
And this pillow gave my creative mind a jump of joy ! It's made by Angela Cheadle's daughter DD.
This pillow reminded me of my own button art work. The buttons are not sewn together as I usually do, but the appearance of the little mat in the middle let me think of my own button mats. You can make it yourself with this fantastic tutorial by Ashley from "Make It and Love It".
And then I found a lot of pillows with button stripes or lines; this grey silk one with mother of pearl buttons by Urvi Agrawal at Robin Street Market is one of my favourites.
And I absolutely adore the boldness of the design and the colours of this Bolt Holes Buttons Cushion by Nadia Sparham at dotmaison.
This beige cushion has only one simple stripe with large wooden buttons; very effective ! It is in a lovely selection of cushions by Kumpal Mittal at shaadi times.
And a similar idea, but with a completely different effect is this single stripe pillow from ecoweaves in Scotland. Their pillows are made from recycled woollens which have been colour-sorted, then shredded and re-spun, and trims include kilt offcuts and re-used buttons.

This fantastic button pillow tutorial by ModHomeEcTeacher at curbly is certainly worth a try (click on the picture to go to the tutorial) ! And it did me make a search for pillows and cushions inspired by buttons. So, this is the first Button Wednesday post in a series about button pillows.
And I also love these crochet button pillows from Create & Decorate. Also with a tutorial (click on the picture) !
And I found this chunky button pillow cross-stitch kit at Granny Knits. Isn't this a gem ?
A beautiful buttons art print cushion from Martin Wiscombe for Garden Home Life.
And what about this Japanese Ecstasy Kudryavka Button Cushion.
Ikea made some button pillows too; a pity that I could not find them here in Germany anymore.
Cute as a button pillows for little boys and girls at The frog and the princess !
A very sweet tweet cushion from Rob Ryan (I love the text).
And last but not least, a detail of a beautiful embroidered button pillow by Mandy Shaw.
