I’ve been busy making layered button pendants today from some of my vintage button collection.  These buttons have been collected from various elderly relatives over the years and there are some amazing buttons within that collection, some of which make great pendants within themselves.

I’ve not even scratched the surface of the buttons I have, which makes it really time consuming to come up with combinations.  There must be millions of possibilities.  Here are a few that I’ve made this morning that are now dry.  There are others just waiting for the glue to dry.

All but the last one are available in our Coriandr shop.  I’m not at all happy with the quality of the last one…you can see the glue under the heart button.

    Hi…I have just come over from UK Handmade to take a peek at your website… I love the way you have used this manuscript paper to show off your button pendants and make the look as if they are strung on black cord… brilliant idea.

    I could take the credit for that but actually it wasn’t intentional. It is a cool idea though.

    Very nice work! What type of glue do you use for the bail? Any jewelry glue??
