Hearts and Flowers

Ok Ok I made up the part about the flowers but this week I decided to try some new ideas out. This is the rings that I made on Monday, simple but quite effective and guess what I managed to glue the buttons together, then glue to the ring shanks without glueing my fingers together (see previous post about the problems that I normally have with glue). I really like these and when I took them with me to the mini market that I was selling at today they also attracted a lot of attention. Let me know which colour you prefer.
I have called them Pink Button ring and Blue Button ring.

Buttons Galore

Sometimes I like to use other items to make my jewellery with. I have used some memory wire  - which keeps it's shape and wraps around the wrist - and threaded on bow shaped buttons with simple seed beads inbetween. Simple but effective, if you like large chunky jewellery. It's not your run of the mill bracelet but if you prefer your items a bit quirky then this is up your street. It is called Buttons and Bows.
