Not serious beading, but fun!
I haven’t been doing that much beading lately, and miss it. I needed a reward for doing a disliked task (mending), so at the fabric store, while picking up thread, grabbed these buttons. A few minutes of peyote later, and I have a ring!

Cool! Looks like it would be a great “quick” project, and a neat-o way to show off a button too pretty to use as a clasp….
It was super fast and easy — I just had to find the right orange of my many oranges. And like you said, a good way to show off a fun button — the bottom pink one is 3/4″, so bigger than any other ring I wear. But it’s not like it’s heavy!
What a nice idea, I love it!
Thank you! I just read a blog post from Mary Tafoya, talking about how she had just bought some buttons — which reminded me to look in the fabric store when I was there. And they were on sale!! I bought some more spotted ones as well — purple, like the orange. I’ll play with those sometime.
Very cool ring.. and I love your close up shots, nice work on both counts!
Thank you! I love the immediate gratification — we need to do more of that! Photography is a pain; I appreciate truly good photos when I see them. Mine are good enough for blogging, but not much more, you know?
Glad to see you’re having fun with beads and buttons.
Very pretty.
Thank you! Just not a lot of time dedicated to beading right now. I think next week will be easier! (But don’t I always??)
