In the Know

I am so glad I worked in the fashion industry for a while. I learned where all these great production facilities are located, and I am not afraid to just show up at them and start talking to people. Today I went down to South Central Los Angeles in the rain to see if I could get some covered buttons made.

I had considered sending them to some place on the internet so I wouldn't have to trek downtown, but at $0.75 a button I thought it was too expensive. Today I dropped of my fabric and I am having covered buttons made for $0.85 a dozen. Yes, $0.85. Can you believe it? Anyway, they will be ready for pick up tomorrow and I should have my dress completed by the end of the week easily.

I will keep you posted.
