And there’s more…

September 19, 2010

I’ve been experimenting with polymer clay buttons recently and there’s been quite a lot of interest . People who make individual hand made garments want individual buttons to complement their designs, rather than mass produced plastic efforts. They also want to be able to choose colours or commission their own designs. So I’ll be putting an accessories section on my website soon to offer sets of buttons. And I thought it might be a good idea to offer some matching earrings too.

 So if you’re looking for unique buttons to finish off your special item of clothing, let me know. I can  make them for you.

Buttoned up

August 18, 2010

I’ve been making buttons out of polymer clay in the last few days. I’ve made a mixture of large focals, small buttons and children’s buttons as an experiment and I think they’ve turned out pretty well.

It opens up a lot of possibilities. I can now offer buttons to exactly match earrings or other individual pieces of jewellery. Or I can design buttons to coordinate with different outfits or jewellery sets. A set of funky buttons could transform a plain cardigan for instance.

I would be interested in any ideas you might have for designs for buttons . Or if you have something you need to match up. My custom hand made button service is now offically open !
