We sell them at
craft fairs, various wool and gift shops in the UK, and now here online.
We know how much people who love buttons love buttons, and we love making them.
ABOUT THE BUTTONS
The buttons are made from resin which is poured into moulds and left to set. Using resin means the buttons can be thin and still be strong.
Each button is decorated and poured by hand so there will be variations in them, which of course adds to the charm of a handmade product.
Some of the buttons have been decorated with glitter, and this will not rub off as it is embedded into the resin.
The buttons may differ slightly from the photos as it is hard to replicate colours and glitter. If you order a matching set of buttons we shall do our best to make sure they match each other.
The buttons are machine washable.

The thickness of buttons may vary within a set.
They are great for
knitters, dressmakers, bagmakers, jewellers, customisers, textile artists.
and for those of you who just want to change the buttons on an existing item. A set of McAnaraks buttons on that old or new but boring jumper or jacket can make the world of difference!
Don't be limited by the size of your buttonholes....see our ideas page for ways to use buttons by McAnaraks.
We welcome wholesale enquiries.
Buttons by McAnaraks are made by Fran Harkes and Steve Cormack in our workshop near Inverness in the Highlands of Scotland. Fran does the arty bits and Steve does the technical stuff.
