Buttons
I was going through my small button stash to make some more hair clips.
Silversmithed: jewelry and tatting shuttles............ Glass blowing: crochet hooks, dinosaurs, ice sickles, pens, earrings, and spoons.......... Tatting: jewelry, motifs, doilies, hankies, books, crosses, and much more.
Christmas
I was waiting to spend my birthday gift certificate, to Handy Hands, once they had their "Christmas in July" promotion. Here is the loot...Thanks Rachel, I love my present.
Shells
Another, craft store had seashell buttons...more hair clips. I think, I need to make a trip to the coast.
Owls
I had found a few, cute, owl buttons at the fabric store. I decided to make a few hair clips, with them. I also had a heart button.
Button
When I seen the "Square Button Bag," in Martha Ess's, Button Jar Tatting book, I had to make it. I added a lot more and more beads to the pattern. This little purse came out to be, about 4" wide. Cute for a little girls purse, or a big girls evening purse. The front of the purse has buttons, while the back is plain (with lots of beads).
