And bobbins...I want to punch all bobbins in the face.

How about the fact that I can't sell my gorgeous designer-quality childrens items on etsy for less than they're worth but people can sell keds adorned with lace and rhinestones (ala bedazzler) for almost $100 and tumbleweeds (yes, the kind of tumbleweeds that get stuck under your car) for $40 all day long!
That and the people who say "you should sell those!" but then never buy them from me.

PICK ME, PICK ME, PICK ME!!! :)

You must check out Brilynn Buttons she's making lampwork buttons and we're collaborating on buttons that are custom matched to fabric. I have one item in my szyhomemaker etsy shop with many to come.

A few years ago I did this as a band around the top of 'bucket' purses that I made for my sisters for xmas. I was unemployed and had too much time on my hands. On a couple of them I also added clear seed beads between the buttons and in the actual stitch securing the buttons. They were a huge hit.
