I wanted something delicious and candy-like and decided on this colorful assortment of buttons. It reminds me of the candy necklaces that I wore as a child, minus all the stickiness, of course.
This green and brown combination is a little more sophisticated and I love how it turned out.
I am not an avid jewelry maker so I do not have necklace clasps at my disposal. Since I do have jewelry pliers and wire, I opted for an Egyptian Clasp closure instead.
I love buttons so this was the perfect project for me.
Mele Kalikimaka! May the closeness of family and friends renew your spirits this holiday season.
Aloha!

Wow, what a lot of buttons! I love buttons myself and am always on the lookout for them at yard sales and estate sales, but I have nowhere near that many!
Love those necklaces!

Mele Kalikimaka! I heard Bing Crosby and the Andrews Sisters (that I know who sings that shows my age, huh?!) singing that this morning and thought of you. I hope you and your family have a wonderful holiday season and that your husband is continuing to get better.
I'm also asking Santa to stop by your house, check out your button collection and give me a duplicate copy! Is there such a thing as button envy?
Olá Arlette
