Time for things that Glitter and Shine

Here are various kinds of twinkle and glow:

Necklace #109.   Vintage and contemporary glass buttons on Japanese chirimen polyester bias tape. 

And nature's own gleam,  abalone buttons, on the chirimen polyester bias tape for Necklace #110.

 Necklace #111 is with vintage rhinestone buttons (imagine those original dresses!) with an accent of rhinestone pallettes on chirimen polyester tape.

With necklace #112, the central button is by glass artist Robin Pascal, www.PerfectButtons.com, and the rest are old Le Chic plastic buttons made in "western Germany", so reflective that you do indeed see the photographer's reflection in them.  They are again on the chirimen polyester bias tape, this time deep purple, which doesn't show up well in my pictures.
