The lovely Farrah Maliavsky wrote to us about her vintage button pins on Etsy. If you’re like me, you have a million pieces of paper and quickly scribbled notes floating around or little photos and odds and ends that you’re constantly losing. These pins are made from an assortment of vintage buttons and would be a great way (along with a cork board) to keep your life organized with style.
Like us, Farrah is also inspired by all things old and the ability to make them new and exciting again. Her latest project was an inspiration board which is basically a vintage frame (from a flea market no less) around a big bulletin board covered with things that inspire her.
Once the board was done, she felt like she couldn’t just use plain boring push pins, which led her to develop these awesome pins made from vintage buttons. They come packaged with the pages of Boho Magazine and are in a handmade paper box out of the already recycled pages of the magazine.
