Ages ago and a little after the Great Depression there were stores called Notion departments. If you have a great grandmother or even an old grandmother they may remember these places. This was a store were you could go and buy thread, cloth, buttons and anything related to sewing.

Now just like today and in the age of reason people have all different beliefs. Some are into Wicca some are Christian and many others are all different things. Basically it was just like today but things were kept much, much quieter.
On a little known alley way in the deep in NYC the practice of the occult was in high practice.  The things we don't know today were not forgotten to one lost family. This family worked around the clock for those like them, those into the paranormal and the occult. Their last name was Smith. Yes it is a common name but what they did was anything but.
Inside the shop which seemed to appear only at the beginning of dusk you could find all sorts of things,related to sewing. While many people found their way in some found exactly what they were looking for, those in the know. A special code word was used to open up the back room which was filled with flying silver fish. At least that is how people described the spirits that resided there. Opening the door was like walking into a room where silver glitter was thrown into the air. That is how many spirits filled that room. The other thing that filled that room was tons and tons of buttons. Each one was designed for beauty, creativity and supreme power. They were also created so no one would notice them other then to say how original. They were not jewelry that could be stolen and could be worn anywhere, on a coat, on the inside of a jacket or just carried around.
Here you will find many of the ones my grandmother collected. Below you will find the description and what they do.
There are 8 of these buttons and they each hold Thor.  Instead of his hammer, he holding a battle axe.  This is significant, because what this piece is saying to you is that Thor has cut down the knowledge of Yddrasil and bring it to you.  If you don't know what Yddrasil is, please allow me to explain it to you.  Yggdrasil is the Tree of LIfe as told by the Norse ancients.  These might Thors that have been depicted on this button will bring you the magic of the Yggdrasil for purpose of birthing entities.
The Norse were perfect for birth entities, but they require the energies from the tree of life to give their entities-- obviously-- life.  This tree is the living breathing sustenance of the Norse Gods, the life of which can be extended into anything animate or inanimate.  In this case you are asking the tree to extend its life powers so you can birth spiritual entities.  This power will grant life to all kinds of entities pretty much allowing you to create whatever type of entity it is you need.  Need love-- create a love fairy.  Need a raise, birth a wealth djinn.  Need divine protection birth a guardian angel?  It just depends on how you use this piece and what you birth.  You can birth an unlimited amount of entities, with an unlimited amount of powers.  All you have to do while wearing your piece as tell the Yggdrasil what kind of entity you want to birth and what powers you would like it have.  It's that simple.
