Buttons Buttons! What to do with all the buttons.

I recently attended the Great American Scrapbook convention, and I was somewhat disappointed with what I found. I only go to shop. Last year I was very excited to find the perfect papers for my Great Wolf Lodge album(which I haven't even started yet) from D.J. Inkers. I was hoping to see them again as I now love their stamps...I wouldn't even look at them last year. But they did not have a booth this year. So this year my biggest purchase was a bunch of buttons...I have never used buttons in layouts. They seem a bit bulky, yet here I am with all these buttons, and they are so cute.
