Vintage Coat

This summer, I actually ended up sewing a lot of buttons onto things, so by now I'm pretty good at it. One of these things was a vintage wool Loden coat (made in Austria!) that I got at an estate sale for only five dollars. There were two buttons missing, and we couldn't find any round, silver matching ones at Hobby Lobby, but my mom had a great idea:


Isn't it pretty? It makes the coat a bit more modern and makes it feel more like mine (despite the musty smell still hanging around it).


Here's it in full! So what do you think of the two different buttons? Yay or nay?
