Buttoned up

Oh boy! I'm not doing as well as I thought at this regular posting business. I have been a little distracted with sorting myself for my travels... only eight sleeps to go! It seems increasingly surreal. Thank you for all your well wishes and advice, suggestions and stories. 

The lovely Kim sent me this photo in an email this week. She stayed at a stunning retro bach in Raglan and spotted a Women's Weekly from 1965, with a few photographs of button necklaces. Thanks Kim!!

I've been feeling a bit sad about leaving my buttons behind when I go to India. I've been making a lot of necklaces lately. Here are some of the best that made up a big order I sent to Auckland a few weeks back.

A lady asked me to make her a necklace with mainly black but with autumnal tones. What do you think? I hope I've achieved this for her. Please excuse the poor photo.
