Tender Buttons 143 East 62nd
Street (between Lex. & 3rd)
Manhattan
(212) 758-7004
Although
it s hard to imagine that a store could
survive selling just buttons, this one
does and when you stop by, you ll
understand why. This adorable little
store is filled from floor to ceiling
with thousands of buttons. Prices range
from 50 cents for simple white buttons to
hundreds of dollars for gorgeous antique
gold buttons, some inlaid with
semi-precious stones.
Customers flock to the store
to find replacements for missing buttons.
Others are looking for the perfect button
to update an existing blouse or to make
that discount-store jacket look like
haute couture. And now that cufflinks are
all the rage again, you might consider
creating inexpensive, one-of-a-kind
cufflinks using your choice of their
decorative buttons. The staff will gladly
assemble them for you.
