I recently bought a bag of buttons with no particular plan. That's what I do. I buy the materials first and then come up with a plan for it later. Because I love all the colors and shapes. I've bought loads of beads, marbles, garage sale jewelry, agate slices, sea shells, and other miscellaneous items that appeal to me. After I have them around and look at them for awhile, I begin to visualize the possibilties.
In this case the buttons went from this....
some became flowers...
Some became a part of mixed media art...
I think I'll wear this one on my jean jacket!
O.K....I think I got the buttons out of my system for awhile...
Buttons are generally cheery things - it quite impossible not to have a smile at one of the little vases of button flowers
ReplyDeleteI love all the things you made with the buttons. I like buying things that are appealing too because I know someday I will find something cool to do with them. You did a fantastic job!
