Last winter I sorted my buttons by color...
The first project I made with buttons:
Wine Glass Charms
Second project:
White Button Necklace
Third Project:
Brown Button Necklace
My latest Button FUN:
Button Bracelets
I like waxed cord for the bracelets.
In the evenings, I make a couple of bracelets...
They are starting to pile up...
My favorite....so far:
Metal buttons off jeans......love it!
I have worn this one to town several times.
The clear buttons are beautiful to work with.
Earth tones work nicely together.
These bracelets have been given away to
my quilting pals, friends, family and neighbors...
But, I can't stop making them!
We had a new calf early this morning:
The new black calf and her mama are in the
center of the photo.
They are flanked on each side by the
Shorthorn Bulls.

I love those button bracelets. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome!
DeleteYou are button crazy!! Love these bracelets and yours are prettier than the tutorial. I do like your favorite best too. Now to look through my button box and see about making my own. Again, thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteYes, look through your buttons, sort out some you like and get to work. I do adore working with the waxed linen thread, easy.
DeleteThose are fantastic, LuAnn. Is there a tutorial for the jump ring necklace? I've crocheted button jewelry, but your metal version is way more elegant! Thanks for sharing this yummy eye candy!
ReplyDeleteYes, I posted a link to the tutorial I used. You can view it here with all of my button posts: https://luannkessi.blogspot.com/search/label/Buttons
DeleteYour button bracelets are so adorable! I bet they are addictive to make...good thing you have a large button collection! New babies are so adorable...no bottle babies this year?
ReplyDeleteNo bottle babies.....thank goodness. That is the first time I have had bottle babies for 20 years! I am not good when it comes to the weaning. I want them to stay babies forever.
