Vintage Button Designs

Dee Dee Style was launched in the spring of 2010 with the simple idea of giving old buttons new life. Dee Dee is my nick name and a girlfriend branded my signature style in home décor, fashion, etc. as “Dee Dee Style”

I got started with an inherited fruit cake tin of buttons from my grandmother. Vintage buttons are too unique and special to let them just sit on a shelf, collecting dust- they need a new life, to be shared with the world, and make new stories to mix with the old. I started with rings, then spread to bracelets, necklaces and tees embellished with both vintage linens and buttons. My latest creations are bags ranging from recycled old feed/seed sacks to repurposed vintage pillow cases all embellished with various vintage linens and of course vintage buttons!

Finally, I dove into romantic apparel in 2012. Most of the apparel items are sold in store at the Rockwall location, but you will find a few treats online. A majority of the clothing items receive a hand selected vintage button or two for embellishment. You will find each one is unique and different. The chenille bloomers are a hand crafted signature item. They are made using either reproduction chenille or vintage chenille bed linens.
