Button Necklace

Yesterday not long after I created my button charm bracelet I had a go at making a button necklace! I think this is one of the best ideas! Just look at all the colours! I never really understood how people would go crazy over buttons! Now I think I do! When I put this necklace around my necklace the feel of these buttons draping on my chest I just had to love. Anyone else make button jewellery? If so your are welcome to share your creations here! Just leave a link to your photo or post here.

Button Jewellery

Today I have been inspired! Inspired to make button jewellery! My mother has been dying buttons along with her fabrics, when she dyes these buttons they come up so well, there are all different shades and variations of colours such blues, greens, pinks and yellows and so many more! Today I used purple buttons to create my button jewellery piece which is indeed a charm bracelet. Have a look!  You will want to keep an eye out for Julie-Ann from Rainbows End Studios soon she will have beautiful buttons likes these on handmade bags which are made from her hand printed and dyed fabrics, you can just imagen how these buttons suit her fabrics!

My New Creations

The day before yesterday I was gathering new ideas of what I could make that is completely different to anything I have made before. Instead of all the basic pieces of jewellery I usually make such as earrings, necklaces and bracelets I though I would give it ago at making Broaches and a Slave foot ring! I have used Safety Pin as the attachment piece for the Broaches, they are great as you can attach them to neally anything! They look great on fabric bags as really glitzy accessories, they also look great on hats and clothing! My mum is a great bag maker and designer and she gave me the idea if I could make these broaches as soon we will be holding market stalls my broaches will be great to have available with her beautiful bags. Maybe we could even start a new trend with this idea! Also here is the Foot Slave Ring I made, A friend has told me that it looks very sexy! Copyright 2013-2014 Beauté Beads
