Hello Buttoners, It's 3am. I can't sleep, so I try to be productive instead of just begging the sandman to come. I just finished the book I've been reading, so now what? I think about WBA and what needs to be done. Ah, the blog! I'm no Clement Moore, but I write anyway. Happy Holidays, Debbie Website Updates What's New for 2026? We added a few new features to the website. There are two buttons for help: one for general login issues and another for Zoom help. If you are having issues registering for programs or missed registering, click on the button, and your Zoom host will do her best to review the emails a few minutes before the presentation opens. PRESENTATION RECORDINGS: "Carving Buttons" by Brad Elfrink We thank Judy Masur for gifting the "Is that a Colt?" presentation she gave to the Historical Button Club of Idaho to WBA, and Joy Journeay for her gift, "Bugs." Both are posted under the Recordings tab. NEW ARTICLES: Zwirnknöpfe Buttons by Gina Barrett ENCYCLOPEDIA ENTRIES: Antiquarian shank Box shank Inserted shank Key shank - two new images Niello (early) - Outside of Thailand Omega shank - new image Soufflé glaze Tintype (ferrotype) Wood back Zwirnknöpfe MEMBER MARKET: Let's welcome Simone Kincaid to the Member Market! WEBSITE ASSISTANT: We're still looking for an assistant to help with the website for a few hours per month. If you have Weebly experience, website design/layout, or know HTML (nice but not required), we'd love to hear from you. Comments are closed.
