Buttons and Beads

I like ‘fun’ jewellery – inexpensive stuff, that won’t break my heart if it breaks or gets lost. And I love colourful stuff. The ‘mixed bead’ necklaces that are around at the minute are great, because the colours go with all the plain summer tee shirts in your wardrobe – and one necklace can improve a dozen different outfits. M&S and ASOS are currently offering these

I sorted out some beads from my tin – and a few vintage buttons as well, and threaded them on 36” of nylon beading thread. I have a necklace which I can wear long and dangly, or wear in a double loop in the neckline of a scoop neck tee. Another five minute freebie!
