Back to Basics - My Button Necklaces

Procrastination has kept me away from the button stash lately, today being no exception...

Before I start anything else, I must go through the buttons, and lay out some designs for some new stock. It is nearly time for school to go back, so the routine will return, and my Craft Girls and I will hopefully be returning to the local Gorman House Markets. The button necklaces were received pretty well there, so I shall get back into it. I am also thinking of the Bus Depot Markets at Kingston, although that's a pretty scary commitment. I don't know if I am ready for that yet. LOTS more stock needs to be created.

Buttons really are my first true love, and I want to keep using them to express creativity, new life to old things, refashioning, and that beautiful things can come from ordinary items.

That sounds kinda ridiculous, but that's how it is!!!
