Choosing buttons is 🤯. Almost immediately the overwhelm set in, and my mind was racing — so many buttons, how do I choose?!? Well, whew, thankfully I found the ones to replace a well-worn, well-loved, custom fit work shirt I made. You can even see the old marks on the fabric in the last picture of how many this pieces is cherished. New buttons are fab! Think I’ll add this shirt to the que! 🩷 #jeknewyork
