Can anyone recommend a good website for buying buttons? Having been inspired by a few ideas for Christmas decorations and other craft projects, I would like to get a decent selection of buttons to start me off.

Thank you.

I sell mixed selections of buttons in my Ebay shop - but I guess I'm not allowed to post the link Grin

ebay is as good as anywhere, lots of items come direct from china, which I tend to avoid, don't know why. Ask friends for their spare ones, charity shops sometimes have baskets of them you can rummage in, old button boxes on ebay go for lots, plus lots of postage. Otherwise UK ebay sellers, once you work out what colour, material, size and shape you want. Otherwise some Folksy and Etsy sellers stock interesting buttons too. Good luck.

Thanks sewcrafty - lots of great ideas to look into.
