Buttons

I really love old buttons and have a ton of them. I could really go crazy buying them, but I hold myself back. Some can be so expensive.

Here's some bracelets that I made awhile back using old buttons.

In the past, people would cut the buttons off their old clothes and recycle them. I don't know anyone who does that anymore, but I think it's cool that they are being used in repurposed jewelry and and artwork!
