Fresh offerings of wonderful buttons for my birthday!
The green vintage plastic and red and white celluloid are from my dear friend who's known me since we were seven. The blue covered buttons and wonderful celluloid and wooden numbers are from my cousin, a great bestow-er of treasures always. These will be fun to play with.
And then, buttons straight from the box:
Necklace #71. Vintage plastic buttons with a faux bamboo design, found at Bad Madge's vintage and collectibles store in San Diego's South Park neighborhood, with contemporary plastic toggles from our lovely local yarn store, Village Wools. They are on a Japanese chirimen polyester bias tape in a green I wasn't sure was going to work, but it turns out I love it.
Necklace #72. Vintage buttons of faceted plastic - most are also from Bad Madge's again. Still on the satisfying green chirimen polyester.

I like that shade of green, it works with lots of colors.
