I mixed both new and old buttons on most, though a couple are purely vintage buttons. They're all stitched to a circle of felt that has a strip on it to hold the hair pin.
I'm beginning to think this is my fave.
Though truthfully, I love the pop of this one too.
And I think this one sings.
This one's not my fave, though it is all vintage buttons. 
This last is a bit of silk ribbon embroidery I did back in the late '80s. As with so many things, I never finished it once the embroidery was done so instead I made a covered button of it. And never used it. It's been in my button box since God made the Brazos river!
Thanks in advance to you lovely people.

I think they're awesome. Maybe you should try them as brooches, or bracelet accents! Wider market than girls with hair long enough for the pins?
I think you got sumthin'! Layers of felt with embroidery stitches, topped with the stacked buttons. I think it'll work. You're a genius, lady.
I love your new button hair accessories. If my hair didn't stink so bad, I'd get me some. But since I seem to only have 3 hairs on my head, there isn't alot to hold back :(
Nor can I wear them, Tricia. Wish I could. But thanks for the kind words.
