It Has Been a Spell without New Work or Postings....

But time to start again.

These interestingly-faceted old plastic buttons in rich peacock were still on their card at a local collectibles shop:



Necklace  #146.  Vintage plastic and brass buttons on Japanese cotton bias tape.


And the center red button on this one and the matt-blue buttons with the six little holes came from Paris.


Necklace #147.  Contemporary plastic buttons on Japanese chirimen polyester bias tape.

Maybe more next week!

    1. Thank you! When I saw these at the store in Montmartre I was eager to stitch them. On a garment, red thread would be fun.
