Hey Everybody,

I am look to source some stag horn button like the ones that come on some tweed Argyle Jackets and Waistcoats. Anybody know of a good inexpensive source?

[MacLowlife]

Someone on eBay sells them. I think they run close to a pound each, plus shipping, which strikes me as a lot for buttons. OOPS, they are THREE POUNDS EACH

Some of the high-end yarn stores carry the horn buttons.

Kill a deer.
Make a button.
Repeat as necessary.

I recently had to replace a missing horn button on an argyle jacket I purchased on eBay...

This was a perfect match: http://www.ejoyce.com/pmain?cmd=e_vi...e=000100090015

They have them in different sizes, and I think it would probably look good on a charcoal jacket.

You can click on the button labeled "Size chart" and print out the actual button sizes to help match the correct size.

They also have black in cross cut: http://www.ejoyce.com/pmain?cmd=e_vi...e=000100090015

Hope this helps!

Go to a local wildlife reserve or hunting area, and walk around, the deer are shedding right now, and with the snow melting it will be easy to spot the antlers, it is completely legal, lots of people do it, it's called shed hunting. Then all you have to do is saw them down and drill the button holes.\
There you have it, horn/antler buttons for free!
