Kollage Meets Jul at ...have you any wool?

This Fall we fell in love with pedestal buttons from Jul .

We used various sizes in a lime green resin on our Roaming Rib by Kathy Zimmerman. During the photo shoot we also styled it with leather and pewter closures, too.

There are lots of ways you could wear this ribbed cowl in Lofty!

Pedestal buttons are such a unique and convenient closure because the buttons screw on to your handmade picece instead of sewing them on. There's no need for making buttonholes. Brilliant concept!

Bridget Dean, owner of ...have you any wool? in Berkley, Michigan, is a huge fan of Kollage Yarns and Jul. Yesterday she had a trunk show featuring both companies.

She called it Kollage Meets Jul and the event was a huge success. Customers got to see all the closures Jul offers while trying on accessories from Kollage Yarns.

Andrea Marquis showed customers lots of different ways to wear cowls, scarves, wraps and shawls.

Bridget wore a Luscious Cannon Beach with a shawl pin, while Andrea wore a Riveting Worsted Cannon Beach with 3 patent leather pedestal buttons.

Such dynamic looks can be achieved by switching up your closures. Imagine the possibilities!
